oasis 0 Report post Posted March 23, 2007 Where to put ceiling fan in living room and bed room?Understand that there is "no wind" exactly underneath the fan, is this true?Usually it's at the side/perimeter of the fan that has the most "wind"Hence if place in hall will be either- between tv and sofa- behind sofaplace in room will be not directly above bed, at one side Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yoongf 11 Report post Posted March 24, 2007 I dun thnk that the ctr no wind is that big a consideration when considering placement. The ctr no wind zone is not that big.Ideally, it would be best that after putting all furniture in then consider where to place the fan. If not, it would look rather odd to see a living room with an off centre ceiling fan. Personally, I dun like ceiling fan in bedroom cos at nite, the ceiling fan blow wind directly onto the bed all the time. At least table fan can adjust to blow diff direction if weather is not that hot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
