A new ceiling fan in your West Melbourne, FL home provides many benefits to you and your home all year long. They’re an excellent addition to your dining room, living room, or bedroom. Here are three ways that installing a new ceiling fan will add comfort and style to your home.
Feel Cooler Without Lowering the Thermostat
Ceiling fans do an excellent job of creating a nice draft of air in the room you’re occupying. According to the Department of Energy, using a ceiling fan allows you to increase the temperature setting on your thermostat by up to 4 degrees Fahrenheit without reducing your comfort. Because ceiling fans use less electricity than air conditioning systems, using your ceiling fan and raising your thermostat could lower your utility bills.
Add Convenient Lighting
When you need more lighting throughout a room, a ceiling fan delivers. They usually have three or four fixtures for light bulbs. They accommodate all types of bulbs, including incandescent, CFL, and LED options. For the best level of energy savings and brightness without heat, choose LED light bulbs for your new ceiling fan. Modern ceiling fans offer Wi-Fi connections and work with other smart items in your home, so you’ll be able to turn the lights on and off with a remote or your automation system’s app. Since ceiling fans are available in a variety of colors and fixture styles, you can coordinate them with the other furnishings in your home.
Improve Air Circulation
During the mild winters in West Melbourne, you might not need to use the air conditioning system every day. On those days, using your ceiling fan to circulate the air creates a wind chill effect. You’ll feel comfortable with the fresh air moving across your skin. Choose fans with large blades for optimal cooling velocity.
