Is your old ceiling fan worn out? Maybe it makes so much noise you cannot stand to turn it on anymore. This is a good time to consider new ceiling fans with lights in Victoria BC. But what kind of fan should you buy? Here are some ideas to help you with the process.

New Installations

Perhaps you want a fan for your bedroom or living room and you do not have one? It is a good idea to place fans near the center of the room. This gives you maximum air circulation. However, larger rooms may require two ceiling fans with lights in Victoria BC. Also, in bedrooms, you may want to install a fan over your bed, but this is not a good idea for reasons of safety.

How Big?

If you visit your local lighting showroom you may encounter several sizes of fans, so which one is the right size for the room? For 8 X 10 bedrooms, you can get a fan as small as 30 inches. If your room is about 12 X 12 you should consider a 42 inch model. 52 inch fans are best for large spaces.

Ceiling Height

The height of your ceilings is an important factor to consider when choosing ceiling fans with lights in Victoria BC. For any ceiling under 8 feet, you should use a flush mount or ceiling hugger model. Many fans give you the option of flush mounting or using hanging rods. If the ceiling is over 9 feet or sloped, you may want to get an extended hanging rod.

Blades

Do you want 4, 5, or 6 blades? As a general rule, 5 or 6 blade fans cost more but they can circulate more air. They are also quieter and this is important for areas where you want noise kept to a minimum.
