Learn how to set your ceiling fan direction for summer to keep your home comfortable through the heat.

But if your ceiling fan only pushes around hot air, this phenomenon won’t be nearly as effective. To keep your home cool (and comfortably warm in the winter), learn how to change your ceiling fan direction for summer and winter.

Is Your Ceiling Fan Turning in the Right Direction to Actually Cool Your Home?
