Teak Outdoor Ceiling Fans
Quality and Style that Withstands the Outdoors

Teak outdoor ceiling fans are ideal for economical and stylish cooling in outdoor areas. The benefits of using teak in outdoor furniture and other appliances are well-known, which is why a lot of garden furniture primarily use teak.

At first glance, there’s no question why teak is a great material for a ceiling fan. Teak wood retains a natural look yet still looks really refined. Teak also comes with various finish options, so you can choose the specific type that will match your needs and preferences.

Teak is not just appreciated for its elegant yet natural look; it is ideal for outdoor use because it is actually waterproof. Unlike other wood materials, teak does not rot or rust nor does it collect dirt easily. Teak is also long-lasting, so if you buy a teak ceiling fan for outdoor use, consider it a long term investment. Interested in buying a teak outdoor ceiling fan? Here are your best options.

Best in Ratings – Hunter 23921 St. Moritz

If you want a teak outdoor ceiling fan that tops the ratings, check out the Hunter St. Moritz, model 23921. The St. Moritz is a five-blade 54-inch offer from leading brand Hunter and comes with uniquely shaped teak blades that make it stand out in style. The teak goes particularly well with the weathered bronze finish of the base.

Although it has all the style of an indoor fan, it is definitely durable enough for use outdoors. It is UL wet listed for use in outdoor areas, both covered and uncovered. It can withstand not just wind and moisture but even the extreme elements outdoors. It is designed to resist rusting, from its stainless steel hardware to its waterproof teak blades, to keep your fan looking good as new no matter how many weather conditions it withstands.

As a bonus, this outdoor ceiling fan can also provide extra ambient lighting to your garden or patio with its single globe light. The light kit, which uses two 60-watt candelabra bulbs, is already included in the package. Although it has only a two-position mounting system, it does have Hunter’s trademark WhisperWind motor.

Best in Affordability – Monte Carlo 5CY60 Cyclone

If you’re hunting for an affordable teak outdoor ceiling fan, your pocket will definitely love the Monte Carlo Cyclone, model 5CY60. The model has a Roman bronze finish and comes with wet-resistant teak blades, giving the ceiling fan a UL listing for both indoor and outdoor use.

Priced at only $290, the Cyclone ceiling fan with teak blades is not only designed to withstand the harsh conditions of the outdoors physically. It is also designed to perform powerfully and provide powerful air movement, thanks to its extra strong 212mm x 25mm torque induction motor and oversized 60-inch blades.

Since it is one of the larger ceiling fans on the market, the Cyclone also comes with a longer 78-inch lead wire so you can install it even in spacious large-ceilinged areas. The Cyclone also comes with a unique and stylish light kit, and it can also be used with a remote control, although you would have to buy the remote control separately.

Best in Style – Emerson CF2455PW Odyssey

One of the most stylish ceiling fans with teak blades on the market is the Odyssey from Emerson. This fan has a very distinctive style with its pewter base and teak blades. The blades have a unique V-shaped cut near the base for a unique contemporary look. You do have to invest quite a bit with the Odyssey, with its $750 price tag. The package includes:

  • 5-blade 54-inch blades with 14 degree blade pitch made of durable, rust-resistant teak wood
  • Opal matte glass accentuating light kit with uplight and downlight
  • Emerson’s popular K55XL motor with 3 powerful fan speeds
  • Wall control with reverse function and receiver
  • Decorative canopy cover
  • 4.5-inch downrod
  • 80-inch lead wire
  • Limited lifetime warranty

    The uplight requires 3 40-watt candelabra bulbs, while the downlight requires 3 60-watt candelabra bulbs.

    You do have the option to add other accessories, such as a remote control, additional downrods with multiple lengths, and ceiling fan medallions in different finishes. If you are interested in availing of a remote control, look for the SR110 remote control.

    Different Grades and Variations of Teak Wood

    Although you may feel limited to teak wood when it comes to outdoor ceiling fans, you will hardly feel it. This is because you can freely choose from different grades and variations of teak wood.

    Teak wood can be graded based on their quality. Grade A teak is the heartwood or the core of the teak timber; it is identifiable by its honey-colored and has very fine grains. Grade B teak is the outer part of the heartwood and has a duller, rougher look. Grade C teak is made from the sapwood and comes in more color variations. This way, you can choose the specific type of teak wood you prefer.
