FAQ
Common Questions
Do ceiling fans really let you raise the thermostat?
Yes — moving air makes you feel 2–4°F cooler at the same temperature (the wind-chill effect indoors). DOE guidance puts cooling savings around 2–3% per degree you raise the setpoint.
Why do the savings assume only occupied rooms?
Fans cool people, not air. A fan spinning in an empty room is just an appliance running backwards on your bill — switch them off when you leave.
What do fan installs cost?
Replacing a fan on an existing box runs $250–$450; a new location with proper bracing runs $400–$650. DC-motor fans add efficiency and silence for daily-use rooms.
