Fans

Fans are indoor fixtures that are used for cooling. There are two types of fans: ceiling fans with rotating blades, and exhaust fans.

Tips on fans:

When purchasing a fan, determine if you also need a remote, speed settings or a 2-in-1 attached light.
Bigger fans circulate more air, and will help to cool a larger room.
Fans are very good in dispersing heat, smoke and odours. They also reduce layering between hot air near the ceiling and cool air at floor level.
Fans are not only an elegant solution for your home, but they are also much more energy efficient than air conditioners.
Remember that apart from being very functional and efficient, fans provide beautiful character to any room.
A fan should never hang lower than 7 feet (2.2 meters) from the floor.
When installing fans ensure they are securely fixed to framing members or they must attach to hooks, metal crossbars, or special hangers meant for fans.
Fans effectively circulate air around a room, thereby keeping the air in your home from getting stale and continuously refreshing a space.
Dirty fans don’t move air efficiently so clean your fans regularly.
