In some industrial and commercial places, HVLS (High Volume Low Speed) ceiling fans have become an important equipment to improve air circulation efficiency and improve comfort. But do you know that the current HVLS Fan can adjust the rotation direction, you can choose clockwise and counterclockwise rotation, then you must want to ask when to adjust the rotation direction, the two rotation directions have what effect, this article will answer this question in detail for you

The key to ceiling fans is airflow

First of all, do you know that ceiling fans don't actually cool the air? Instead, it creates a steady breeze known as the "wind chill effect." The movement of the air created by the ceiling fan can make the temperature feel colder than it actually is. This is because the moving air evaporates sweat from the skin more quickly, which cools the body. That is, ceiling fans create a microclimate around you by increasing air circulation and evaporation, and you feel cool and comfortable even when the temperature doesn't actually change.

What is the effect of changing the direction of the air flow

First, let's look at the HVLS FAN rotating clockwise. When the HVLS FAN rotates counterclockwise (when viewed from below the ceiling fan) it creates a downdraft, which in short, pulls the air flow from above the space down. When the HVLS FAN rotates clockwise (when viewed from below the ceiling fan), it creates an upward airflow, pulling the air from below the space to the top. Both of these methods can promote the uniform circulation of hot and cold air in the space, and the specific way to use should be selected according to the actual situation.

How do you use this feature of forward and reverse rotation?

In summer, it is necessary to choose counterclockwise rotation, so that the hot air gathered above can be broken down and blown down, to avoid the hot air to continue to gather, if the hot air continues to gather, the room temperature will continue to rise. In winter, it is necessary to choose clockwise rotation, so that the cold air below is lifted and the hot air above is evenly mixed, so that the average temperature of the air below is increased.

Sum up

These are the differences between clockwise and counterclockwise rotation of the HVLS FAN and the different effects achieved, in short, the counterclockwise rotation is to pull the upper air flow down, and the clockwise rotation is to lift the lower air flow up. It is recommended that when purchasing ceiling fans, try to choose to rotate in two directions, especially in some well-known large enterprises are particularly concerned about this point, if you are a fan dealer, the fan you purchase with this function will greatly improve the possibility of your order.
