How a Ceiling Fan Cools

You're probably familiar with the idea of "wind chill." It's what makes -1c degree feel like -12c in the winter in the colder climates. Ceiling fans operate on the same principle. By providing a breeze, ceiling fans make you feel cooler, while not actually lowering the room temperatures. If you have existing air conditioning you can set the thermostat higher saving energy and feeling just as cool eg instead of 22c set it to 27c degrees.

Winter Heat Savings

In the winter a ceiling fan continues to deliver energy and cost savings. Click on the winter mode button on the diagram below to see how it works. Simply run the ceiling fan in the slow reverse mode and it will pull all the hot air from the ceiling down to the floor level. This means that you can turn the thermostat down and studies have shown that up to 24% savings can be made on heating costs by using this simple feature. The higher the ceiling the more effective this will be and the greater the savings. Each degree reduction in the heating means a saving of around 6% on heating costs. A ceiling fan can thus operate and deliver reliable benefits and cost savings all the year round.

What is the latin word for ecofriendly?

The Latin word for "ecofriendly" doesn't have an exact equivalent, as the concept is modern. However, terms like "sustinere" (to sustain) or "salubris" (healthful) can be used to convey the idea of being environmentally friendly. Additionally, "ecologicus" is a more contemporary term derived from "ecology."
