  • Patent number: 5417275
    Abstract: An air circulator control apparatus and method of use for at least one air circulator and a climate control system having a heater and a cooler to regulate the air temperature of a vertical column of air in a structure. The present invention seeks to overcome the negative effects of naturally occurring convection currents and improper placement of air outlets resulting in distinct zones of warm and cool air in structures. The air circulator control apparatus temporarily delays activation of at least one air circulator when used with the heater, to provide for an accumulation of warm air at or near at least one air circulator, before allowing at least one air circulator to be activated. In this manner, generally warm air is circulated in the absence of creating undesirable drafts and wind chills. The air circulator control apparatus instantly activates at least one air circulator when used with the cooler to generally circulate cool air.
