Hunter fans have the power to cut your cooling costs up to 40%.

Beat the High Cost of Cooling

The air movement created by a Hunter ceiling fan lets you set your thermostat higher and still stay comfortable. Every degree you raise the thermostat saves up to 7% on energy costs. So, you can cut back on expensive air conditioning ... and save up to 40%* on cooling. In winter, your Hunter fan recirculates warm air and saves up to 10%* on heating bills.

* On average at low speed settings. Your savings may vary based on climate, building type and thermostat setting.

Save Energy and Money While Protecting the Environment

Congratulations! You're saving energy and money while protecting the environment by purchasing this ENERGY STAR qualified Hunter ceiling fan! With this purchase, you are doing your part to protect the environment. Your new ceiling fan has earned the ENERGY STAR label because it meets high energy efficiency specifications set by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). ENERGY STAR labeled ceiling fans save energy because they have more efficient fan motors and air delivery due to more aerodynamic blade configurations. Ceiling fan models bearing the ENERGY STAR label move air 14 - 20% more efficiently than typical ceiling fan models. For more information on ENERGY STAR visit www.energystar.gov.

Reverse Switch

To switch the direction of air flow, move the reverse switch to the opposite position. You will need to remove the light kit glass to do so.
