Office Ceiling Fan Tip #1: Remember to Change the Direction

If you want maximum productivity in the office, you need to remember to change the direction of the fan with the change of seasons. It can be hard to be productive in an office that is too hot or too cold. Changing the direction to counterclockwise pushes cold air down and cools the room, whilst having the fan spinning clockwise pulls the air up towards the ceiling. This allows for air to be circulated around the office without making it too cold.

Office Ceiling Fan Tip #2: Clean the Fan Regularly

Many people are allergic to dust and react with a runny nose, by coughing or sneezing. This can be an uncomfortable work environment, which is why the fan needs to be cleaned regularly. You can do this by simply placing a pillowcase over the blades and wiping off the dust. It is quick and doesn’t make a mess. Keep your office dust-free to ensure everyone feels energized and ready to tackle their work.

Office Ceiling Fan Tip #3: Decide on the Right Type of Fan You Need

Before purchasing a ceiling fan, it is important to evaluate your office to determine the type of fan that you need. If your office is a big space, we recommend getting a ceiling fan with large blades that are 132cm or more to generate sufficient air flow. If it is a smaller room, we recommend going between 122cm and 132cm. Always place your fan in the centre of the room and ensure that you leave at least 30cm between the closest wall and the blades. You may also want to consider installing more than one fan if you are working in an extremely large room. The type of fan you select will determine how much air flow you get in the room.
