How to reverse air flow

I have a 68 inch Hampton Bay Altura fan.  I just realized the blades are rotating the wrong way for the summer.  The fan is new and was installed the way it is.  I can't find a switch to reverse the blades.  The fan is wired to a switch on the wall.  What do I do?  Thanks!

Re: How to reverse air flow

Hi jivida welcome to the community. Your question is a common one we get in the stores about different fan models. 

 

For the Hampton Bay Altura fan you have two options for controlling the rotational direction of the blades. The easiest method is to use the included reverse function on the remote that came with the fan.

 

The second method involves the physical motor reverse switch. This is located on the top of the fan motor housing.

Either of these methods should get the job done for you no problem. I hope this helps and get back to us if you have any further questions.

 

Cheers,
