BIG ASS FANS 2025 Manuel D'installation page 31

Moving at a low speed means less energy used for operation, translating into more energy savings year-round.
Follow the procedures below to ensure the most efficient operation of your Big Ass Fan.
To ensure proper fan rotation:
1. Turn on the fan.
2. Verify that the fan is rotating in the counterclockwise direction (when viewed from below).
3. If the fan is not rotating counterclockwise, reverse the fan direction. See the previous page for instructions on
changing the direction of rotation.
Heating season
In spaces with higher ceilings, Big Ass Fan 2025, Big Ass Fan 3025, and Big Ass Fan 3600 fans return heat from
the ceiling to floor level more efficiently than smaller ceiling fans. For maximum energy savings, the fan should
be operated continuously during the heating season and should not be operated in reverse (clockwise). Big Ass
Fans are designed to operate efficiently at very low speeds, so turning the fan very slowly in the forward direction
(counterclockwise) will provide enough air movement to circulate the hot air at the ceiling down to the floor
without causing a draft.
Stand directly below the tips of the airfoils with hand outstretched. If you feel a draft, slightly decrease the fan
speed. Repeat until the draft is no longer noticeable.
Cooling season
The cooling effect created by the breeze from Big Ass Fan 2025, Big Ass Fan 3025, and Big Ass Fan 3600 fans
keeps occupants comfortable with the thermostat at a higher setting. During the cooling season, every degree
higher that the thermostat is reset reduces the energy consumed by the air conditioner by 1.5–2%. To minimize
energy usage during the cooling season, operate the fan only when building occupants are present.
Increase the speed of the fan until desired air speed or maximum fan speed is reached. In air conditioned facilities,
increase the thermostat setting by 2–7°F to reduce energy consumption and save energy.
