A ceiling fan is the ideal solution for keeping cool in the summer and great for driving the heat down from a high ceiling in the winter. With a light incorporated in the fan unit, a ceiling fan with a light may be all that is required in your living rooms.
A ceiling fan will rotate and give off a soft breeze that will activate air circulation. Many have 3 speeds to give you the maximum efficiency required to adequately ventilate your room.
A silent running ceiling fan could rotate gently above you in your bedroom to keep you cool during a hot summer’s night.
A ceiling fan could also save you money in the winter by pushing down warm air from a high ceiling. The direction of rotation can be altered according to the season.
Generally a ceiling fan should be mounted at approximately 2.3m from the floor in order to achieve maximum efficiency. The blades of a ceiling fan should be at least 0.6m from a wall.
Ceiling fans with a light come with a variety of different light bulb types. Many are compact fluorescent for even greater energy saving. The juncal grey ceiling fan with light requires a circular fluorescent lamp. The Boracay ceiling fan takes maximum 60W G9 halogen capsule lamps. The multicolour boracay ceiling fan would be ideal to use in a child’s bedroom.
Ceiling fans come in a variety of finishes including white, satin nickel, copper brown and grey. Some with reversible plywood blades with a different colour on each side, allowing you to choose which colour to have pointing downwards. Some have decorative glass shades or an acrylic diffuser.
Traditional or modern designs are available. The formentera grey ceiling fan with light is an example of a contemporary ceiling fan which comes complete with a remote control unit. The dominica copper brown ceiling fan with light is in a more traditional style and has a 3 light fitting with decorative glass shades and is operated by a pull cord switch. A remote control unit is available as an optional extra.
The phuket copper brown ceiling fan comes without a light although a light unit is available as an optional extra. A remote control unit is also available.
