When a room is hot it is better to have the ceiling fan turned counter clockwise. This forces the air to blow down. In the winter the fan should turn clockwise to keep the warm air higher.

Does the ceiling fan go counter clockwise for summer use?
For summer use, the airflow should go down directly from the fan to the floor. For winter use it should pull the air from the floor towards the ceiling so it flows across the ceiling and around the room. So as to whether it should be clock-wise or counter clock-wise, that would depend on the angle of your blades. It's best to just stand under it when it's on. In the summer you should feel the air blowing on you from the fan and in the winter you shouldn't.

With a typical fan, run the fan counter-clockwise in the summer, and in the winter, run the fan clockwise at a low speed. In the summer, blow the air down to directly cool you. If you have a large room, and you are on the outside of the room, you may want to run the fan in the opposite direction. In the winter, blow the air up on slow to pull the cool air up, mixing the cool air with the warm air at the ceiling, and pushing the air across the ceiling to the walls, then coming down the walls, and minimizing wind chill.
