If Kelli and Mike used ceiling fans to circulate air and set temps higher or lower depending on the season, they could save $50.00 over a year’s time. It all adds up.

Using ENERGY STAR® qualified ceiling fans with lights in tandem with heating and cooling can reduce Kelli and Mike’s energy use and improve their interior comfort level. During the summer, they can make sure their fans operate counter-clockwise to create a wind-chill effect. In the winter, they’ll operate their fans slowly in a clockwise direction. This creates an updraft that pushes warm air near the ceiling down to where they can enjoy it.
