For ceiling fans you want them blowing air downwards in the summer time and pulling air upwards in the winter. It has to do with temperature gradients in the air as you move from floor to ceiling, primary heat transfer methods during those times of year, and your body temperature relative to the air that’s being moved by the fans.
