Outdoor Ceiling Fans with Lights
Why We Love Outdoor Ceiling Fans with Lights
Combining airflow with illumination is the expertise of these outdoor ceiling fans with light. A well-lit patio lends itself to late night conversations, after dinner hangouts and some alone time for you to sit back and relax while catching up on your favorite book. The added element of a fan facilitating a cool breeze or moving stuffy air out of the space further appeals to a relaxing environment. By introducing a lighted patio ceiling fan to your outdoor living area, you’ll create a stylish personality for the space.
Where Outdoor Ceiling Fans with Lights Work Best
These stylish ceiling fans are designed to sustain the elements, making them an ideal fit for outdoor areas like decks, patios and covered gazebos. They ensure much-appreciated airflow and brighten the area for dining occasions, summer barbecues or a late evening conversation among friends. The integrated light kit acts as a ceiling light on its own, spreading light coverage across the entire deck or patio. And when paired with other sources of light from sconces, portable lamps and landscape fixtures, you’ll have a well-rounded and well-lit outdoor area.

Choosing the Best Outdoor Fan with Light
When choosing a ceiling fan for any area of your home, you first need to take into consideration its size. Ceiling fan size is measured by its blade span, the number of blades it has and the size of each individual blades. Knowing the size you need for your space will narrow your choices and will also establish an idea of the airflow efficiency you need. Covering a big deck area requires a large ceiling fan, while more compact patios benefit from smaller ceiling fans. These fans are all safe for outdoor use, however, if you want to double check, just look to the fan’s UL rating. Damp-rated fans are ideal for spaces where water is occasionally present and wet-rated fans are safe to be exposed to water anytime. Finally, look to the fan’s bulb requirement (although some may have an integrated light kit) to be prepared when the fan is installed.

These palm-leafed fans are meant for the great outdoors and will remind you of your favorite tropical vacation.
