If anyone else is wondering whether their ceiling fan is set for summer or winter, it is clockwise for winter, anti-clockwise for summer.

Clockwise looking from top or underneath?

From where you look at it.

What the heck does a clockwise ceiling fan in winter accomplish?

It lifts warm air up and spreads it around the room, lifting some of the burden from your heater
