Heating system

Re: Heating system
It refers to reversible ceiling fans as that was what was originally mentioned "Sooo, that is why our ceiling fans are reversible" Anyway I have done that seldom done thing of logging the pc on and here is the link

It is interesting that the report mentions that in the US (i) there is no reported history of problems, despite there being many more installations, and (ii) the instructions on fans in the US don't have a warning re using them in a room with an open flue heating appliance.
The report talks repeatedly about the size of the room as being critical, and this is IMO the most likely reason that there are no reported issues in the US - our open living room and kitchen has the same foot print as our home (2 bed terraced house) in London had. Even smaller, older houses in the US commonly have a living room that is at least 3-4m x 3-4 metres, so considerably larger than homes in the UK and Europe. Also true "open fireplaces" are IME, rare in the US, with most traditional fireplaces, whether gas or log-burning) being contained behind glass doors, or the use of a stove, with a door, to contain the fire.
