Most homeowners position the fan in the center of the ceiling. Used as a decorating accent, the fan can be positioned in a corner, but the blades should be no closer than 18 inches to the wall. That distance will allow sufficient clearance for proper air circulation.
In the bedroom the ideal location for the ceiling fan is over the foot of the bed, never directly over the head of the bed. A dining room fan should have a reversing switch that allows the fan to create an updraft during dining. A down draft would cool hot food prematurely.
A ceiling fan cools and circulates room air most efficiently when the blades are 2400mm to 2700mm above the floor. For rooms with high ceilings, extension poles are available in lengths between 300mm to 1800mm. For safety reasons, the fan blades should be at least 2100mm away from the floor. A low profile ceiling fan with the blades 8 inches from the ceiling, is available for rooms with low ceilings.
