Installation of Ceiling Fan
The ceiling fan should be mounted on ceiling or hang from the rod appropriate height that is 7 feet above the floor and 18 feet from the wall. Never mount a ceiling fan to low height as it is very risky. Mounting the fan too high will decrease its’ efficiency and performance. If the fan is mounted on slant ceiling, mounted bracket is needed; which allows the fan to hang straight. Installation of ceiling fan with light kit provides more energy. The blades having a pitch of 13-14 degree are appropriate for most situations whereas the blades of 11-12 degree are appropriate for some special fans. It is not wrong to pick any types of blades. Mainly it depends upon the size and location of the room.
Right Direction for Fan
A proper direction of ceiling fan is required for proper circulation of the air in room. The direction of ceiling fan should be either forward or reverse which depends on the situation. When the direction of ceiling fan is forward, it blows air in downward direction and circulates cool air into whole room. But in winter when it’s reverse, it blows air in upward direction, outside the room. A fan in right direction saves a lot of money and creates no problem or pain.
Importance of Fan Blades
The circulation of air depends on the blades of ceiling fan. The blades come in a variety of styles, designs, color and sizes. The right size of blade of ceiling fan increases décor of the room and saves energy.
