Tip of the Day



Installing a Decorative Ceiling Fan

Sweaty windows got you down? Tired of high heating bills in the winter and scorching interiors in the summer? Consider installing a decorative ceiling paddle fan. Most folks are familiar with the "cooling effect" that a ceiling fan can provide during the hot summer months. Not as widely known is that same fan's ability to dry out condensation on the interior of windows. Run in the reverse direction, the fan drives warm air stuck at the ceiling down the perimeter walls. This warm air not only helps cure the sweats, but raises the room's temperature making the space more comfortable, resulting in a lower utility bill. Aside from its physical and economic benefits, a paddle fan can add decorating flair to virtually any space in the home. And that's The On House tip for today.
