Outdoor pendant lighting have the ability to make a fantastic impression all guests who come to visit the most exquisite home on the block. Finding the perfect spot to hang them on the other hand can often be a rather difficult decision especially outdoors. I’ve compiled a list of some fantastic options which make super spots to hang your pendant lighting outdoors while helping with your overall safety, security and of course functionality as a decor fixture.

These lights can be placed in an endless variety of places in and around your home. They add a magnificent touch of class outside the home at your front door.

The number one spot for pendant lights inside a home is the kitchen- over the kitchen table or breakfast bar, depending on the homeowners taste and preferences. Island style pendants are unbelievably popular for use in kitchens, especially if you plant to hang more than one light from a center piece, symmetrically.

They’re also commonly found in game rooms, for example over pool tables. If they’re located over a gaming table, they can hang a lower than normal, when compared to kitchen height. Same goes for work space installations. You want sufficient light from the pendants so the installation should be a lot closer to the work surface.

If you’re considering hanging these lights above a table or counter, the general rule will be to hang them approximately 30 to 40 inches above the work surface. Before finalizing the installation, check the height. If someone’s in a sitting position at the table, the light should not be in way.

Outside entryway pendant lights- Pendant lights are a fantastic addition to outside entryways. Hanging them above a gate or pathway to or from your home will not only look classy but also help to maintain the safety of walkway and gate users.

Porches and Patios- Porches and patios are the most common pendant light spot. A single light will go well with a smaller porch, or a string of them in larger patio areas. These pendant lights work great for relaxing on warm, laid-back evenings on the patio. Dimmer switch installation will give you flexibility to increase or decrease strength depending on your personal preferences and needs.

If you are one of those individuals who loves spending time outdoors in your yard during spring and summer months, installing versatile pendant lighting is a must.

Which way should a ceiling fan be set in cold weather?

Hello:

I have some ceiling fans in my house. They are not labelled with “summer/winter” directions on the direction switch, and I have forgotten whether I set them a different way last summer.

Should the fans be pulling air up, or pulling air down to combat cold weather?

Anyone who can help would be appreciated. A link to an energy company’s website or something to justify your answer might just win you the 10 pts. Thanx

Blow the air up. I have installed thousands of these. The directions in every one say blow up in the winter and down in the summer.

Update***

That site that Paul gave is for a fan you would install in a warehouse. Those fans do not have a reverse for the winter because they are typically in a very high ceiling and need to push at high speeds. Nice try Paul. I have a few licenses in my Pocket that says I know what I am talking about.
