Why We Love Ceiling Fans With Lights
Kill two birds with one stone with a ceiling fan with light. Modern ceiling fans with lights are ideal for residential, commercial and outdoor applications with many of them being damp rated for safe outdoor use where the presence of water is unavoidable. Installing the right ceiling fan with an integrated light kit will help you reduce energy costs, improve the over all comfort and efficiency of your room, while also tying the design concept together.
Ceiling Fans With Lights for Every Room & Application
We're firm believers that every room of the home can benefit from a ceiling fan, and an integrated light kit is just an added bonus. Lighted ceiling fans are efficient and versatile in any room you choose to place them, from the kitchen to each of your bedrooms. When furnishing a small room like a bedroom or a home office, it’s useful to combine your overhead lighting with a ceiling fan in order to reduce costs and save space. You'll likely also have portable lamps in these rooms, allowing the ceiling fan with light to simply contribute to the overall light spread.
Kitchens and dining rooms equally benefit from the fresh air added by a ceiling fan. When cooking or doing any kind of food prep, you'll appreciate the fresh airflow and overhead illumination offered by one of these designs. Work spaces like laundry rooms and garages also happily welcome a well-lit environment with the help of one of these ceiling fans. And of course, these fans find a pleasant home in exterior areas of the home. Outdoor ceiling fans with lights add a bright personality to decks, covered patios and porches that you'll be sure to notice.

These helpful fans also make great companions to commercial locations including retail spaces, restaurants and hotels.

A Lighted Fan for Every Ceiling Type
From blade colors and motor finishes to the type of mounting you need for your ceiling, there are plenty of options to choose from. First, if you're replacing an old ceiling fan in your home, try to find a design with its same mounting style for easy installation. Ceiling fans are typically mounted perfectly flush with the ceiling, extended from the ceiling a few inches (for low profile applications) or far away from the ceiling with the use of a downrod extension. All mounting types serve different cooling and lighting purposes, so be sure to choose just the right one for your exact situation. You'll also want to consider all of the color choices available, as well as the finish of the motor and hardware. A white or black ceiling fan with light is best for rooms with neutral colors, while stainless steel and aluminum finishes appease a contemporary look and colorful choices convey a sense of personality. Choose a color that blends in with the rest of your home's decor or opt for something completely unique that will stand out on its own.
How to Choose the Best Ceiling Fan with Lights
Once you have determined the mounting style of the fan you need, the next step is to find the right size. Fans are typically measured by their blade span (expressed as a diameter) and the number of blades on the fan. Understanding the size of a ceiling fan is critical to making the best choice for your home and efficiently moving air. With measuring tape in hand, find the dimensions of the area where you plan to install a fan. Keep in mind small blade spans of 42" and below are ideal for bedrooms, breakfast nooks and petite offices, while 70" or bigger belong in the living room or great room. The number of blades is also important as this will help determine the fan's efficiency and how quiet you can expect it to be. As a rule of thumb to remember, as the number of blades on a fan increases, it becomes quieter and less efficient.

Other Considerations
If you already have a sufficient amount of light coming from a lamp or light fixture in your space, you may want to see the selection of ceiling fans without lights available. A ceiling fan can be just as decorative and functional even when a light is not a part of it or if its light source is simply capped. Or, complement the amount of light provided by one of these ceiling fans with a set of table lamps and floor lamps. Check out the full assortment of LED ceiling fans for forward-thinking designs that not only look great, but they will help you reduce energy consumption. Finally, look to a dimmer switch if you need a way to use your fan's light kit for mood lighting.
