Energy Efficient Use of Ceiling Fans
Ceiling fan performance and energy savings rely heavily on the properinstallation and use ofthe ceiling 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 thewalls. Ifceiling height allows,install the fan 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.
Electrical and Structural Requirements
Your new ceiling fan will require a grounded electrical supply line of 120 volts AC, 60 Hz, 15 amp circuit. The outlet box must be securely anchored and capable of withstanding a load of at least 50 lbs. Figure 1 depicts different structural configurations that may be used for mounting the outlet box.
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 the motorandoperatethe ceiling 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!

WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or personal injury, mount fan to outlet box marked acceptable for fan support of 22.7 kg (50 lbs) or less. Use screws supplied with outlet box. Most outlet 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.
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.
▲
WARNING
Turning off wall switch is not sufficent. 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 and Local codes and the ceiling fan must be properly grounded as a precaution against possible electrical shock.
