There’s nothing quite like the year-round comfort of a ceiling fan. Many people find that once they’ve had a ceiling fan, they simply won’t do without. Ceiling fans are a great source of energy-efficient climate control – no matter what the season. Ceiling fans cool you in the summer and distribute warmth in the winter, all for just pennies a week. They are extremely efficient; even at high speeds they use less energy than a 75-watt light bulb. Ceiling Fans save energy, lowering cooling cost as much as 40 percent, according to a study by Florida power and Light. In the summer, fans create a wind chill effect that makes a temperature of 80 degrees Fahrenheit feel like 72 degrees. By using fans, the thermostat may be set 8 to 10 degrees higher, thus creating a major savings on cost of electricity. |
