In summer, the ceiling fan should rotate clockwise (winter mode) to pull cold air up from the lower floors and distribute it to the upper floors. <\/strong> <\/p><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Purpose of a Ceiling Fan at the Top of Stairs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The primary function of a ceiling fan is to cool the occupants of a room by blowing air over them. Generally, I recommend installing fans in a space that you occupy enough to make use of this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stairs are go-betweens. You don&rsquo;t habitually sit in the stairwell, so technically, there is no traditional cooling benefit of putting a fan at the top of the stairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, that does not mean you won&rsquo;t get other benefits from installing a ceiling fan there. It&rsquo;s just not the <em>main<\/em> function of the fan. At the top of stairs, a fan&rsquo;s purpose is to help air circulation throughout a <a href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/ceiling-fan-direction-considerations-two-story-houses\/\">multi-story house<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Stairway Ceiling Fan Direction in Winter<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In winter, your aim is to evenly distribute warm air throughout the house. You don&rsquo;t want it all rising and gathering in your attic where it&rsquo;s of no use to anyone. For a ceiling fan in your stairway to be the most helpful in winter, you should <strong>set it to rotate <a href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/which-way-counter-clockwise-ceiling-fan\/\">counterclockwise<\/a><\/strong> (the summer mode).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In summer mode, the fan&rsquo;s blades rotate with the highest points of the <a href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/ceiling-fan-blade-pitch\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"17453\">pitch<\/a> leading, which results in air being pulled from above the fan (so, from the upper floor), and this air is pushed down through the blades (to the lower floor). This will help to redistribute heat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Considerations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a few factors that will help the stairway ceiling fan to be more effective:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>You should <strong>use the fan on a low-speed setting<\/strong> to avoid creating a strong draft. The fan doesn&rsquo;t need to produce a gust to circulate air through the house, and you will likely find it more pleasant in winter without the added wind chill in the stairway. &nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>A <strong>standard (downrod) mount fan is the ideal model<\/strong> for a stairway fan. Downrod models will perform better than <a href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/difference-flush-mount-hugger-ceiling-fans\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"17096\">flush mount and hugger fans<\/a> because they have more space above the blades. More space means more air that can get pulled down.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><a title='Sofucor 52\" Wood Ceiling Fan Indoor with Light and Remote Control, Matte Black' rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-amazonimages=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B09KMV4VBN?tag=hvacbuzz-20\" target=\"_blank\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" title='Sofucor 52\" Wood Ceiling Fan Indoor with Light and Remote Control, Matte Black' class=\"size-large aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/31eHa+GrejL._SL500_.jpg\" alt='Sofucor 52\" Wood Ceiling Fan Indoor with Light and Remote Control, Matte Black'><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" title='Sofucor 52\" Wood Ceiling Fan Indoor with Light and Remote Control, Matte Black' class=\"size-large aligncenter lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/31eHa+GrejL._SL500_.jpg\" alt='Sofucor 52\" Wood Ceiling Fan Indoor with Light and Remote Control, Matte Black' data-mvt-skip=\"src\" loading=\"lazy\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>This circulation method works better with <a href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/open-riser-or-closed-riser-stairs\/\">o<strong>pen staircases<\/strong><\/a><strong> that lead to rooms or open landing<\/strong>s. Airflow will be hampered by an enclosed stairway that leads to a hallway. The more space around the fan, the more helpful it can be.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>You should <strong>turn off the fan before bed<\/strong> to allow the air to concentrate on the upper floors again, where bedrooms are generally located.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Stairway Ceiling Fan Direction in Summer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In summer, you will want to distribute cold air throughout the house. Cold air concentrates on the lower floors of the house, particularly the basement, so you are <a href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/how-get-cold-air-room-to-another\/\">going to want to move the air upwards<\/a>. You can achieve this by <strong>setting your fan to rotate <a href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/which-way-clockwise-ceiling-fan\/\">clockwise<\/a><\/strong> (winter mode).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In winter mode, the blades rotate clockwise, meaning that the lower points of the pitch are leading and air is being pulled up from below the fan (the lower levels) and is being pushed out above the fan towards the upper floor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your fan is at the top of your basement stairs, this airflow direction can also help prevent the sinking of cold air if you use the AC in the rooms above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Considerations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There are also some factors to consider when using a fan like this in the summer:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Once again, <strong>a standard mount fan is the best choice<\/strong> over flush and hugger mounts. The extra space above the fan from the downrod means that the updraft can be more effectively distributed, instead of just moving along the ceiling.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>As I mentioned earlier, the fan will work better with <strong>open staircases that lead to open areas <\/strong>than enclosed staircases leading to hallways, as there is more room to push and pull air. It will allow the fan to create better airflow.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"729\" src=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Illustration-of-an-enclosed-staircase-and-an-open-staircase.jpg\" alt=\"Illustration of an enclosed staircase and an open staircase\" class=\"wp-image-22855\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Illustration-of-an-enclosed-staircase-and-an-open-staircase.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Illustration-of-an-enclosed-staircase-and-an-open-staircase-300x219.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Illustration-of-an-enclosed-staircase-and-an-open-staircase-768x560.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Illustration-of-an-enclosed-staircase-and-an-open-staircase-735x536.jpg 735w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Illustration-of-an-enclosed-staircase-and-an-open-staircase-335x244.jpg 335w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Illustration-of-an-enclosed-staircase-and-an-open-staircase-347x253.jpg 347w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Illustration-of-an-enclosed-staircase-and-an-open-staircase-520x379.jpg 520w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Illustration-of-an-enclosed-staircase-and-an-open-staircase-640x467.jpg 640w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Illustration-of-an-enclosed-staircase-and-an-open-staircase-960x700.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 24px), 720px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"729\" src=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Illustration-of-an-enclosed-staircase-and-an-open-staircase.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Illustration of an enclosed staircase and an open staircase\" class=\"wp-image-22855 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Illustration-of-an-enclosed-staircase-and-an-open-staircase.jpg.webp 1000w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Illustration-of-an-enclosed-staircase-and-an-open-staircase-300x219.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Illustration-of-an-enclosed-staircase-and-an-open-staircase-768x560.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Illustration-of-an-enclosed-staircase-and-an-open-staircase-735x536.jpg.webp 735w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Illustration-of-an-enclosed-staircase-and-an-open-staircase-335x244.jpg.webp 335w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Illustration-of-an-enclosed-staircase-and-an-open-staircase-347x253.jpg.webp 347w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Illustration-of-an-enclosed-staircase-and-an-open-staircase-520x379.jpg.webp 520w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Illustration-of-an-enclosed-staircase-and-an-open-staircase-640x467.jpg.webp 640w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Illustration-of-an-enclosed-staircase-and-an-open-staircase-960x700.jpg.webp 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 24px), 720px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Illustration-of-an-enclosed-staircase-and-an-open-staircase.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-2\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>When using the fan this way, you will <strong>displace heat downward<\/strong>, which may result in the lower areas of the house getting marginally warmer.
