Outdoor Low Profile Ceiling Fans
For Covered Porches, Gazebos and Indoor Pool Areas


Outdoor low profile ceiling fans are a great way to add both style and airflow to your covered porches, gazebos, indoor pool areas.

There are many models available to the consumer that fit all budgets, colors, and needs.

Once a consumer has decided what their needs are, it comes down to a matter of preference when making a purchase.

Before a consumer can buy a fan, they need to understand what you are considering. Outdoor ceiling fans are fans you are able to use in damp or wet environments. Wet location fans can come in contact with rain or snow. Damp location fans cannot.

A low profile fan – or hugger – is a fan that is mounted flush to the ceiling. The blades are approximately five to seven inches from the ceiling. These types of fans are primarily used when you have a ceiling clearance of less than eight feet.

Outdoor ceiling fans are available in low profile models. These are good for covered patios or gazebos with a low clearance. They will draw the air from the opened areas of the patios and help circulate it.

The blades are made from plastic or resin to keep from rotting or warping due to the humidity they are exposed to and many models come in decorative styles with optional lighting.
