What time is it? Almost Summertime!
Get a head start with feeling cool, comfortable & most importantly relaxed this summer by first making sure your ceiling fan is ready for all that summer brings.
Cross your T’s and Dot your I’s
The summer months can be intense so it is important to check your fan blades are in working order, that the fan turns on smoothly and you can feel the movement of air. Listen out for any ticking and look to see if the fan is wobbling. If it is, it might be time for a new ceiling fan or to contact an installer to help repair the fan. Don't forget to double check it is spinning counter clockwise to ensure air will be pushed down in the summer months.
Give it a bit of a clean
There is nothing worse than turning on a ceiling fan and dust bunnies are spitting out everywhere on sweaty skin. This can cause skin irritation and itchiness, which doesn’t achieve the cool, relaxed summer vibe you are going for. Give your fans a wipe down with damp cloth for that fresh summer feeling.
Check all systems are a go!
If you have an app to control your fan, voice activation or remote, have a go testing turning the fan on, switching to different modes, speeds and connection to the house. Are the motion sensors working? Does alexa turn on all the fans or just one? Depending on your fan and system, getting your fan set up sorted before summer will save you time and the stress of yelling at your smart home device in the summer heat.
Save on your energy bills.
An intense summer heat can also mean your ceiling fans and air conditioning unit will be working harder and on overtime. Save money during the summer months by investing in fans with DC motors if you haven’t already, or decking out the rest of your home. For energy savings, the haiku I ceiling fan with brushless DC motor delivers powerful quiet airflow using only a small amount of energy to cool.
To run a Haiku Fan 24/7 based on current energy prices will cost $14.88 when compared to air-conditioning running costs of $2,505.
Don’t get hot and flustered this summer, get cool and relaxed with the touch of a button.
