Finding the Right Outdoor Ceiling Fan

One of the best ways to add comfort to your home is to invest in an outdoor ceiling fan. You can choose from a wide variety of designs for a truly unique style. Whether you need circulation for your patio, porch, or sunroom, ceiling fans are perfect for keeping cool when you’re spending time outside.

Outdoor Versus Indoor Ceiling Fans

The main difference between an indoor and an outdoor ceiling fan is the materials it is made of. An indoor fan isn’t designed to handle moisture or winds and can quickly warp. However, an outdoor fan will last for many years because it is specially designed to handle the elements.

Not all outdoor fans are the same. It is a good idea to do your research before you make a final decision. For example, you will have the option of choosing between a damp location or a wet location ceiling fan. Damp location fans are designed to handle humid locations, but they do not need to be directly exposed to the rain or snow. These types of fans are ideal for sunrooms or screened-in patios. On the other hand, a wet location fan is a great choice for open patios, gazebos, or other uncovered areas outside. A wet location fan can handle the outside elements from extreme temperatures to constant sun exposure without any issues.
