Energy Efficient Use of Ceiling Fans

Ceiling fan performance and energy savings rely
heavily on theproper installation anduse of theceiling
fan. Here are a few tips to ensure efficient product
performance.

Choosing the Appropriate Mounting Location

Ceiling fans should be installed, or mounted, in the middle
of the room and at least 7 feet above the floor and 18
inches from the walls. If ceiling height allows, install thefan
8 - 9 feet above the floor for optimal airflow. Consult your
Fanimation Retailer for optional mounting accessories.

Turn Off When Not in the Room

Ceiling fans cool people, not rooms. If the room is
unoccupied, turn off the ceiling fan to save energy.

Using the Ceiling Fan Year Round
Summer Season: Use the ceiling fan in the counter-

clockwise direction. The airflow produced by the ceiling
fan creates a wind-chill effect, making you “feel” cooler.
Select a fan speed that provides a comfortable breeze,
lower speeds consume less energy.
WinterSeason: Reverse themotor and operatetheceiling
fan at low speed in the clockwise direction. This produces
a gentle updraft, which forces warm air near the ceiling
down into the occupied space.Remember to adjust your
thermostat when using your ceiling fan - additional energy
and dollar savings could be realized with this simple step!

Electrical and Structural Requirements

Your new ceiling fan will require a grounded electrical
supply line of 120 volts AC, 60 HZ, 15 Amp Circuit.
Electrical code requires use of a fan-rated outlet box to
support the extra weight and motion associated with a
ceiling fan. A fan-rated box will be labeled as such and
typically supports up to a 70lb ceiling fan. Fan-Rated
Outlet Boxes vary in ratings and design. Ensure the
ratings of your ceiling fan outlet box meet the
requirements for the ceiling fan being installed. Figure 1,
Figure 2 and Figure 3 depicts different structural
configurations that may be used for mounting the
outlet box.

Low profile box (Figure 1)

A 1⁄2-in.-deep pancake box is meant to be screwed to a

joist or block. It’s used if only one cable is coming into
the box. It is also available in a saddle-mount
configuration.

Electrical and Structural Requirements (Continued)

If your fan is to replace an existing light fixture, turn
electricity off at the main fuse box at this time and
remove the existing light fixture.

Turning off wall switch is not sufficient. To avoid
possible electrical shock, be sure electricity is
turned off at the main fuse box before wiring. All
wiring must be in accordance with National an d
Local codes and the ceiling fan must be properly
grounded as a precaution against possible electrical
shock.

WARNING

Deep box with brace (Figure 3)

Paired with a deep box, this hanger is meant to span
between two joists and takes the place of wooden
blocking.

To avoid fire or shock, follow all wiring instructions
carefully. Any electrical work not described in these
instructions should be done or approved by a
licensed electrician.

WARNING

Do not operate this fan with a variable (Rheostat) wall
controller or dimmer switch. Doing so could result in
damage to the ceiling fan's remote control unit.

WARNING

6

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or
personal injury, mount fan to outlet box marked
acceptable for fan support of 15.88 kg (35 lbs) or less.
Use screws supplied with outlet box. Most outle t
boxes commonly used for support of light fixtures
are not acceptable for fan support and may need to
be replaced. Consult a qualified electrician if
in doubt.
