Hi,
I have two ceiling fans, and both are three speed. On mine I just pull the one chain three times to get up to top speed.
If top speed isn't moving enough air, You have to get a bigger fan with a bigger motor.

How does a ceiling fan help with a wood stove?

Hot air rises so they heated air created by a wood stove will tend to collect at the ceiling of the room. A ceiling fan will push some of the hot air down in the room creating a more even distribution of heat.


What is the distance between the fan and ceiling?

I've a 4 ft diameter ceiling fan with 3 blades of std width (about 3") hanging at a distance of 9" from the ceiling. Floor to ceiling distance is 8'5". Problem is that when I stand at a distance of about 3 to 4 feet from the centre of the fan - there is no air-flow. So, area covered by fan is 8 ft dia (max). If I stand beyond 8 ft dia circle there is hardly any air flow. Same fan in another room is hanging at a distance of about 12" to 13" and it's covering area 12 ft dia on the floor with a reasonable air-flow. It seems that there is some co-relation between height of fan from ceiling and area covered below it. Any idea? The distance from the ceiling is of little importance unless ceiling is very tall. Size of fan, width of blades makes the difference. Pitch of the blades The angle, or pitch, of each ceiling fan blade is also a determining factor in how efficient a ceiling fan will be. The angle of the blade affects the amount of wind resistance and the fan's ability to blow the circulated air downward.

What kind of ceiling fan is best for a large room?

The most appropriate ceiling fan for a large room would be a large one. This is because the larger the ceiling fan, the more air will be blown throughout the room.


What is the purpose of a ceiling fan?

A ceiling fan provides air circulation which can make the air immediately around your body cooler (because if the air is stagnant the heat from your body will make you feel warmer than the actual room temperature). It is important to note that a ceiling fan actually contributes heat to a room, so if no one is going to be present to enjoy its effects, you might as well turn it off.


Why does cold air tend to flow under warm air?

cold air has more water vapor so it sinks warm air does not have so much

Will a smaller air cleaner make more horsepower?

No... upgrading to a cold air intake can, but then you have to match your fuel flow to your air flow, because gasoline engines have a really strict stochiometric ratio.


Why would one purchase a ceiling fan over a standard floor stand model?

The ceiling fan is able to fan a wider area in a more general sense. The floor model would be concentrated to a particular area. The ceiling fan would be able to increase the air flow through the room better.

Why are ceiling fans reversible?

In the winter as you heat your house, the hottest air rises to the ceiling. Ceiling fans are reversible so that you can push this warm air off of the ceiling in the winter. Of course, you will most likely want to run the fan on its lowest speed, since a draft from the fan can actually make you feel colder.


Moving muscles in order to make air flow into and out of the lungs?

The term for moving muscles in order to make air flow into and out of the lungs is breathing. The main muscle that moves is the diaphragm, which sits just below the lungs and causes air to flow in and out as it contracts and expands.
