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 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 from floor to the blade and 18 inches from wall to the blade. If ceiling height allows, install the fan 8 - 9 feet from floor to the blade 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.

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.

Winter Season: 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!

Electrical and Structural Requirements

Your new ceiling fan will require a grounded electrical supply line of 120 volts AC, 60 HZ, 15 Amp Circuit. Electrical code requires use of a fan-rated outlet box to support the extra weight and motion associated with a ceiling fan. A fan-rated box will be labeled as such and typically supports up to a 70lbs ceiling fan. Fan-Rated Outlet Boxes vary in ratings and design. Ensure the ratings of your ceiling fan outlet box meet the requirements for the ceiling fan being installed. Figure 1, Figure 2 and Figure 3 depict different structural configurations that may be used for mounting the outlet box.

Low-profile use (Figure 1)

A 1/2-in.-deep pancake box is meant to be screwed to a joist or block. It's used if only one cable is coming into the box. It is also available in a saddle-mount configuration.

(Figure 1 Description: Shows a low-profile outlet box mounted directly to a ceiling joist.)

Deep-profile use (Figure 2)

A 2-1/4-in.-deep box can be attached to blocking between joists and is roomy enough to handle more than one cable.

(Figure 2 Description: Shows a deeper outlet box mounted between ceiling joists.)

Electrical and Structural Requirements (Continued)

Brace use (Figure 3)

Paired with a deep box, this hanger is meant to span between two joists and takes the place of wooden blocking.

(Figure 3 Description: Illustrates a brace used between joists to support an outlet box.)

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or personal injury, mount fan to outlet box marked acceptable for fan support of 15.88 kg (35 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 sufficient. 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.

WARNING

To avoid fire or shock, follow all wiring instructions carefully. Any electrical work not described in these instructions should be done or approved by a licensed electrician.

WARNING

Do not operate this fan with a variable (Rheostat) wall controller or dimmer switch. Doing so could result in damage to the ceiling fan's remote control unit.
