Can fans be used in winter for any beneficial purpose? |
| |
Callista series, premium range of ceiling fans like Arista, Subaris, Victoria and Alexandria have a reverse rotation facility which is ideal for winters.. A Ceiling fan can help lower energy consumption in the winter by up to 10%. The temperature of the air in a heated room varies in layers; the air near the ceiling being warmer than the air near the floor, as owing to its weight, warm air rises to the top. A ceiling fan can help push the warmer air that is trapped near the ceiling back down into the room, thus de-stratifying the layers of warm air. As a result, the warm air is circulated where it is needed and the heating system does not overwork to warm the room. |
