I lost the instructions to my ceiling fan. I cannot remember what position the switch should be in to cool the room instead of pushing warm air down. Yes, you would think I could feel the difference, but I can't. Is there a way of telling other than by feeling the air?

Ceiling fans should rotate counter clock-wise in the summer and clock-wise in the winter.

Most manufacturers will have an up and down slide switch on the side of the fan. Push the switch down for blowing air down and up for up.

Depends on how you like your air. I like a fan directly blowing on me.Instructions tell you in the summer to have the fan blowing up to circulate cooler air from the floor to the ceiling and warmer air down. The reverse in winter.

My wife and I wear out the switches each trying to have it our own way.
