If you feel a cool breeze then the fan is pushing the air down which is the proper Summer mode for your specific fan. Another trick sent in by one of our readers is to spray lysol or some form of spray under the fan and if the spray goes straight down then the fan is in Summer mode but if the spray just hangs there then the fan is in Winter mode. I hope this helps solve your problem. Please let me know if you have any further questions. Melissa Hi Terry,

I am still confused. My fan has a wall plate remote, and when I have it going forward, the blades are rotating clockwise. The blade position is higher on the left side of the blade, and lower on the right, moving clockwise. Is this correct for the summer, or do I need to put it in reverse, which would rotate the blades counterclockwise? Ok. I am still confused.
