I recently installed two ceiling fans, and found the definitive answer as to the direction the blades should turn. According to Hunter, in warm weather, use downward air flow, and in cold weather, upward. That (now) seems the most logical, but at one point I figured that in warm weather, one would want to draw the warm air up and “out of the way”. But according to the user’s guide (or whatever it’s called), in cold weather the upward “pull” of the fan will distribute warm air through the area, without causing a draft. And in warm weather, one wants the “breeze” caused by the fan.
Anyway. So there you have it, in case you were wondering.
