What way should I make my celing fan spin to keep the hot air down?

The answer is clockwise... This sounds really dumb, but this is how I remember it: In the summer it hot outside & you would go to the ice cream "counter" to buy dessert, therefore, in summer, the fan should go "counter" clockwise (looking up @ the fan), so in the winter it would go clockwise. Hope this helps. I only leave mine on low too, other speeds seem to cool the air too much.

It all depends on which way the blades are turned but ours are counterclockwise and I believe that that's how the are assembled from the manufacturer.......They need to spin in the direction of the edge of the blade that is closest to the ceiling
Hope that helps

Counter clock-wise

Stand under it, and you can feel the air coming down when you have it turning right way
