Save Energy With Westinghouse Ceiling Fans


Ceiling fans can be an energy-saving, "green" addition to any home, adding more value than many homeowners realize. Most ceiling fans are very efficient, using only about as much power as a 100-watt light bulb. Used properly, ceiling fans can save you money in winter as well as summer: up to 10 percent in heating costs and up to 40 percent in air conditioning costs. And placement of a ceiling fan is important. Peak energy savings are realized by placing ceiling fan blades 10 to 12 inches below the ceiling and 7 to 9 feet above the floor.
Year-Round Comfort and Efficiency


For maximum energy savings as well as comfort throughout the four seasons, Westinghouse ceiling fans include a reversible switch that allows the ceiling fans to be used during cool or warm weather. In the summer, keep your home cool by running your ceiling fan counterclockwise. In the winter, run your ceiling fan clockwise to re-circulate warm air from the ceiling, eliminating cold spots and drafts.

5.0 out of 5 stars Tiny fan, moves a lot of air, September 27, 2010

This review is from: Westinghouse 78108 Petite 6-Blade 30-Inch 3-Speed Hugger-Style Ceiling Fan with Light, White (Tools & Home Improvement)
This fan works great! I installed it last night. It spins very quickly on its highest setting, and it moves a lot of air for its size. The bulb socket is a miniature Edison base rated at 65W, so it may be a bit dim for larger rooms.

I hooked this fan up to a fan/light control switch on the wall, so I wanted to remove the pullchains. To do so, perform the following BEFORE MOUNTING THE FAN and AT YOUR OWN RISK:
* Remove the three screws that hold the light socket over the housing, and pull open the cover.
* There are a bunch of wires and wire nuts that attach the fan speed pullchain, fan direction switch, and light pullchain together.
* Unscrew the fan speed pullchain switch and the light pullchain switch. Yank all the wires out of both switches.
* The black and blue wires go straight through the fan to the other side - they're coming directly from the source.
* To bypass the light pullchain, connect the blue wire to the black wire of the light...Read more

If you are purchasing this just based on the size and appearance, the fan is great. I think the thing is noisy and has a constant low level hum. I have 4 other Hunter fans in my home and all are extremely quiet - Unfortunately, this was the only one I could find in this small size so I was limited to Westinghouse. It went into my daughter's room and she says that I am the only one to notice the hum so I guess it's OK for 50 bucks.

I am surprised by the noisy comment. I installed this fan in my daughters bedroom and I hardly notice it's on. It has worked out quite well and the instructions were great.
