This classic ceiling fan remains a top choice for homeowners. Typically, these fans have four to five blades and lights and are available in various styles. Many of these fans have additional features like customizable blades and remote-control operation.

The low profile is perfect for lower ceilings. They are directly attached to the mounting bracket, keeping the blades the required 7 feet from the floor.

Energy Star ceiling fans are built with energy efficiency in mind. Installation can help reduce your home’s utility costs while providing ample cooling.

Dual motor ceiling fans are ideal for larger rooms. They circulate over a wider range than standard fans. Dual motors are installed with adjustable fans. Each fan operates at independent speeds due to its central motor having two horizontal rods.

These ceiling fans are designed to be protected from moisture and humidity so as not to warp:

• Damp ceiling fans: These fans are suitable for high-humidity areas that are semi-sheltered from the elements, such as sunrooms or porches.
• Wet ceiling fans: These fans can be installed almost anywhere because they can withstand rain, sunshine and snow.

Industrial-grade fans can be installed in workshops, warehouses and work areas.
