Thank you, Kelly. Excellent tip, and one that ceiling fan owners often overlook. Yet, it’s an easy way to keep our homes more comfortable throughout the year – and save money, too. Enjoy the summer!

In the summer, fans should rotate counterclockwise to create a cooling breeze. However, in the fall and winter, reversing the direction to clockwise at a low speed helps push warm air down from the ceiling, making your home feel cozier. This simple adjustment can improve your heating system’s efficiency, keeping your home comfortable while potentially saving on energy costs. Just flip the switch on the fan’s motor housing to make the change.

Higher efficiency windows can make a big difference in your heating AND cooling use and costs. While they cost slightly more than regular windows, they more than make up for it with reduced energy loss and lower energy bills. Thanks for the tip.
