The invisible retractable ceiling fan with light is set to reverse, and the fan blade rotates counterclockwise, which can push down the hot air rising in the room, but no wind in the room can accelerate the air circulation and increase the indoor temperature.
Do all ceiling fans have reverse mode?
Nearly every ceiling fan has a switch on the motor housing that changes the blades' movement from counterclockwise (the standard setting) to clockwise, and vice versa. Pro tip: Very few, if any, ceiling fans are made without a direction switch on the motor housing, so if you're stymied, consult the manufacturer.

What can cause a fan to stop rotating?
A dried out or sticky pin is one of the most common reasons for blades to stop spinning. If they spin easily and there's no resistance, try turning your fan on and see if the pin spins. If it doesn't, the problem isn't the pin and there is probably a short in the motor.
How do you fix a ceiling fan that won't spin but light works?
If your ceiling fan stopped working but the light still works, check for a humming sound. This could be indicative of a blown motor capacitor, which is often caused by overheating. While inspecting the motor housing, look for a small black box connected to the pull cord.
Are hugger ceiling fans any good?
Although you can install a hugger fan on an 8 foot or higher ceiling, we do not recommend them for any ceiling that is much higher than 8 feet because they will not move nearly as much air as a traditional ceiling fan that hangs from a downrod.
Is a flush mount ceiling fan the same as a hugger ceiling fan?
Hugger ceiling fans are defined as ceiling fans that do not include a downrod and are mounted flush to the ceiling. This is why they are often interchangeably referred to as flush-mount ceiling fans and are a great choice for low ceilings or small rooms.
What is the difference between flush mount and close Mount?
What's different about a flush mount ceiling fan? Standard mount ceiling fans typically have 12 to 14 inches of space between the ceiling and fan blades. Flush mount fans, on the other hand, only need between 6 and 10 inches between the ceiling and the fan blades.
