⚡ CalcWolf Insight

Running a ceiling fan costs approximately $0.01-0.02 per hour vs $0.20-0.50/hour for air conditioning. Using a fan to raise your thermostat by 4°F saves roughly $50-100 per cooling season. In winter, reverse the fan direction (clockwise on low) to push warm air down from the ceiling.
