Benefits of Ceiling Fans

Did you know that your ceiling fan does much more than just keeping you cool on a warm day? Ceiling fans can make your home more comfortable and enhance your home’s decor. Serving a variety of purposes from saving energy, lighting up a room and complementing the design of your home ceiling fans are more beneficial than you may think.

• Save Energy and Increase Comfort: turn the thermostat up a few degrees on warm days and turn on your ceiling fan. Doing so will keep you cool and help you save money on your utility bills.
• Turn it on in the Winter Too: we all know that hot air rises, so turn your ceiling fan on in reverse during the winter months to bring the warm air that his risen up to the ceiling back down to the living areas of your house.
• Versatility: Ceiling fans come in a million different shapes and sizes are often customizable. They can be used in any room of the house as well as outside on the front porch or in the backyard. Choose your favorite blade material and finish and showcase your ceiling’s detail or make a room look larger.
• Extra Lighting:  Most ceiling fans come equipped with overhead lighting that can help portray a desired mood in the room. If you have an older fan that does not include lighting, Mr. Electric’s electricians can upgrade most ceiling fans with a lighting kit.
