Maintenance

IMPORTANT CARE INSTRUCTIONS !

  • WARNING for your Ceiling Fan
  • Periodic cleaning of your new ceiling fan is the only maintenance that is needed.
  • When cleaning, use only a soft brush or lint free cloth to avoid scratching the finish.
  • Abrasive cleaning agents are not required and should be avoided to prevent damage to finish.

Energy-Efficient Use of Ceiling Fans

  • Ceiling fan performance and energy savings rely heavily on the proper installation and use of the ceiling fan. Here are a few tips to ensure quality and 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 the fan 8 – 9 feet above the floor for optimal airflow. Consult your Brands Retailer for optional mounting accessories Using the Ceiling Fan Year Round. In the summer, 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. In the winter, reverse the motor and operate the 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!
  • 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
