Your fan must be an industrial model. Commercial fans usually have reversing switches mounted beside the speed controller for the fan. The reasoning behind this is that the fans are usually in warehouses that have high ceiling that are hard to get to switch from summer to winter. To switch from summer to winter in your type of fan, the wiring has to be changed inside the motor box. Fans for use in homes will all have the reverse switch.

Ceiling fans upstairs in the winter?

Reverse the switch to tell the fan to push the whirling up so that the heat at the ceiling will flow downward to give some heat to the room upstairs or downstairs. Happy whirling.
