Do you have a ceiling fan?
« on: February 17, 2011, 09:32:02 am »
I have one in my den,  dining room and bedroom.  I use the ones in the den (where my computer desk is) and the one in my bedroom quite a bit in the summer.  In the summer I turn down my air at night and just use the fan. 

Do you change the direction of the fan and use it in the winter?  I know that can be done, but I never do it.  It just never feels right to have it going in the wintertime.

Yup, I have a ceiling fan in my living room. I just use it in the summer months and I will sometimes open the windows too. I would like to get a AC some day before it gets too hot here.

We have a ceiling fan that is seldom used because we had a heat pump with A/C installed a few years ago.  On some nice days, we open the windows and turn on the fan. (The cat likes to sit in the open windows.)  :)

I have one in my kitchen, living room and my bedroom. I have to have it on at night when I sleep or else it is too still for  me .  I like the air blowing on me.

We have ceiling fans in every room except our bathrooms and I wish we could have them there. They are among the great inventions. I have never reversed our fans for the winter though. Might try it sometime.

We have them in the family room and all bedrooms. Only use them during the summer with the A/C.

There is one at the apartment I'm at. The ceilings are very high here and the fan does nothing to keep the heat down. Personally I think they are not worth the money buying or installing.

Yep, in almost every room of the house. We use them all the time...but especially in the summer because we do not have A/C

One in every room 'except' the kitchen and bathroom......Although I think one in the bath room would really be nice in the summer.

I'm going to install 2 of them, hopefully before the warm weather hits.  One in the living room, and one in the Master Bedroom.  It would be nice to have one especially in the bedroom to sleep.  Even though I live in the mountains, some nights it doesn't cool down, and a fan would be nice to switch on overhead.  There's already flat plates in the ceilings, and wall switches on the walls for them.  Just have to buy the fans.

We have AC units and stand-up fans, which do OK. I'll def get a ceiling fan when I'm not just renting.

We have three in our house, one in the family room, one in the master bedroom and one in the guest room.  During the summertime, it is great to turn them on and they help cool down the house...
