Seasonal Tip: Use Your Ceiling Fan to Stay Warm This Fall

October 1, 2025

As the weather cools down, there’s an easy way to keep your home cozy without cranking up the heat: simply adjust your ceiling fans! Many people don’t realize that ceiling fans can be used year-round.


In the fall and winter months, set your fans to rotate clockwise. This motion gently pushes the warm air that rises to the ceiling back down into your living space, creating a comfortable warmth throughout the room.

Making this small adjustment can improve your home’s energy efficiency and may even help lower your heating bill. To make the switch, just look for the direction button or switch on your fan—usually located on the fan body or remote.

As the long summer days begin to shorten and cooler evenings start to settle in, it's a clear sign that fall is just around the corner.

Late summer in Ohio can be unpredictable—some days bring crisp, fall-like mornings, while others feel just as hot and humid as July. This back-and-forth weather can put extra strain on your HVAC system, making late summer a critical time to ensure everything is running efficiently. 1. Watch for Signs of Wear By August, your air conditioner has likely been running for months. Listen for unusual noises, check for weak airflow, and monitor your utility bills for sudden spikes. These can be early indicators that your system needs attention before fall. 2. Maintain Proper Airflow Late summer pollen and dust can clog your air filter faster than expected. A fresh filter not only improves indoor air quality but also keeps your AC from overworking. 3. Manage Humidity High humidity in late summer can make your home feel warmer than it is. Consider a whole-home dehumidifier or have your current system checked to ensure it’s properly removing moisture from the air. A little end-of-summer care goes a long way in extending the life of your HVAC system and keeping your home comfortable year-round.  Serving Wooster, Ashland & Mt. Eaton, and surrounding communities since 1993, we are a locally owned and operated HVAC contractor working with a variety of heating , cooling , refrigeration & plumbing systems.
