Why We Love Large Outdoor Ceiling Fans
Large outdoor ceiling fans are the perfect addition to your outdoor space when temperatures rise. These ceiling fans turn your own backyard into an outdoor space so luxurious that you'll forget you're at home. Suddenly, muggy summer days won't seem so bad when you can sit comfortably under the cool air of an outdoor ceiling fan. These fans are designed for outdoor use, making them durable and ready for installation on your covered or screened patio or porch.
Where Large Outdoor Ceiling Fans Work Best
Covered outdoor spaces are the right spot for mounting big outdoor ceiling fans. If your front porch features a roof that expands the length of your house, it might be the perfect spot for you to relax under the cool breeze of a large fan. Similarly, a covered patio off of the back of your house is also ready for installation of a large fan. Screened porches will become instantly more comfortable with a big fan. Simply put, if you have a significant amount of ceiling above an outdoor space, you have a spot for one of these well-designed fans. And every fan in this assortment carries a UL rating to make it safe for use where the presence of water (rain, snow, etc.) may be unavoidable.
A Big Outdoor Ceiling Fan for Every Style
Large fans for outdoors come in many styles, allowing you to find one that suits your porch, patio or covered outdoor living space. Fanimation fans feature four or eight blades that move swiftly to cool your outdoor space. Sleek features like multiple speed settings, various finishes and an included light source make these fans stylish and functional. With expansive blades reaching as much as 84", a large fan from Fanimation is sure to get the job done. Meanwhile, Monte Carlo Fans feature hand-carved balsa wood blades, a minimalist design and softly rounded blade edges. Available in several wood finishes, these fans add a noticeably rustic touch to your outdoor space. Or look to a Kichler ceiling fan to fit a transitionally themed outdoor location. Along with reliable quality you can trust, Kichler's fans offer expert functionality and contemporary design you'll appreciate. And lastly, Craftmade Fans feature expansive blade sweeps that can cool any large outdoor area. Quiet and efficient motors make these extra large outdoor ceiling fans quite the popular choice.
How to Choose the Best Large Outdoor Ceiling Fan
Assess your outdoor space when choosing big outdoor ceiling fans for your home. First, think about what finish will look best in your outdoor space. For instance, for a covered deck, you might want a fan with wooden blades that complement the natural wood of the deck. Or, you might opt for a more modern fan with a metallic finish for your outdoor living area. Take the appropriate measurements to determine the exact fan size you need. Measuring a ceiling fan requires an understanding of its blade span, often represented as a diameter. As these fans are quite large in nature, you can expect to find blade spans beginning at 60". And assess the different fans to decide how many blades you desire. Some fans feature as few as three blades and as many as eight. Depending on the space you want to cool and how quiet you prefer a ceiling fan to be, the number of blades can play a big role in finding the best fixture. Lastly, consider whether you want a ceiling fan with a light. Some come with an included light kit, while others support a light kit that you purchase separately. An outdoor ceiling fan with lights can be a good choice if you plan to relax outdoors long after the sun has set.
