Matthews Fan Company Kaye Ceiling Fan

For rooms up to 144 square feet, the ceiling fan should be between 42 and 48 inches. This range offers a balanced combination of airflow performance and aesthetic fit for medium-sized rooms such as:

• Bedrooms
• Home offices
• Guest rooms
• Small living rooms

Before reversing a ceiling fan’s direction, decide whether you need to change it or not. If you do need to reverse the ceiling fan, follow the steps below:

• First, turn off the ceiling fan and wait for the ceiling blades to come to a complete stop. Most conventional fans have a switch. Modern fans, on the other hand, have remote controls to reverse the blade's direction.

Fans with head switch

• Most conventional fans have a switch on the housing of the fan. It can typically be found near the pull string.
• Flip the switch to the opposite side.
• Once the switch is flipped, turn the fan back on and see if the fan direction changed.

Fans using a remote or app controller

• Modern fans typically use remote or app controllers to change the blade direction.
• Push the button on the remote or app controller.
• After pushing the button to reverse the blade direction, turn the fan back on to check the fan still works and is going in the right direction.
• Then, find the switch on the fan base. Check the housing assembly for the reverse switch. Some fans will have remote controls that with a button to reverse the blades.
• After finding the switch or button, flip or push it to reverse the direction of the fan.
