Ceiling Fans

Benefits of ceiling fans

What is the best way to combat heat without incurring high electricity bills? The answer is a ceiling fan, an increasingly indispensable tool for generating cool air in the summer and redistributing warmth in the winter.

Many models feature integrated systems that allow you to control their operation with timers. These can be programmed using remote controls or through wall-mounted regulators.

It's also important to consider the power consumption of their motors and the noise they generate. Modern fan designs typically produce a sound that is virtually inaudible.

Lastly, there is a vast array of fan types and designs available. Options range from bladeless fans, models with or without lights, classic designs (with pull chains or other mechanisms), ultra-quiet versions, and fans suitable for various room sizes.

What to consider when buying a ceiling fan?

There are several factors to consider before choosing a ceiling fan, such as the height of the ceiling and the size of the room where you plan to install it, whether you want a fan with or without a light. The surface, blade design, and light source are the three main aspects to look at.

• Blades and Finishes: We now have access to a wide variety of models with different numbers of blades, many of which are reversible—offering different colours on each side. This allows you to coordinate the fan with your furniture and style effectively.
• Speed: You can also choose from several speed options, allowing you to select the most suitable airflow intensity for each situation, from the lowest to the strongest when the heat becomes bothersome.
• Size: These products are available in various sizes to ensure the air conditioning function is optimally fulfilled according to the needs of each room.
• Mode: Another great feature of the newest models is the possibility to use them all year round in winter/summer mode. In summer, they are used to create a lower wind chill and make hot days and nights much more bearable. In this case, their blades turn to the left, pushing the air downwards.

However, if we set our fan to winter mode, the movement is reversed so that the fan is responsible for redistributing the heat from the heating evenly, preventing the air from stagnating and finding a balance between heat and distribution.
