CEILING FANS
TOP THINGS TO CONSIDER WHEN
CHOOSING YOUR CEILING FAN.
IS THE FAN FOR INSIDE OR OUTSIDE?
There are some restrictions on where a ceiling fan can be placed, depending on
how much moisture it will come into contact with. The icons below are used in
this catalogue as a quick visual guide to help you know what fan you need.
All of our indoor fans should be kept to areas where they will
not come into contact with water, for example, indoor living
spaces and bedrooms.
Indoor (Dry)
IP20 (Humid)
IP23 (Damp)
IP44 (Wet)
Ceiling fans with an IP20 / (Humid) rating can be used in
moderate humidity areas, for example, if you have a room that
has bi-fold doors that integrates with the outdoors when opened.
They cannot withstand direct contact with water.
Ceiling fans with an IP23 / (Damp) rating can be used in highhumidity areas, like enclosed porches, sunrooms or utility rooms.
They feature water-resistant, durable finishes and incorporate
galvanised undercoating on all metal surfaces to protect against
rusting. Also, their blades are made of either ABS plastic or
sealed wood to ensure longevity against damp conditions.
Ceiling fans with an IP44 (Wet) rating can be used in open areas
with direct exposure to sun, rain or water spray, like pergolas
and open porches. They have highly durable finishes against rain
and snow and include all-weather ABS plastic blades.
(See our selection of outdoor fans in the Distinctive Lighting Exterior Catalogue).
WHAT STYLE
DO YOU WANT?
We have a variety of different
styles and finishes in our collection,
designed to fit all needs.
Our modern ceiling fans add a
clean, understated look to open
spaces. You can choose something
more traditional to complement
rooms with classic, elegant
décor. Or blur the lines with a
transitional ceiling fan that is simple
and sophisticated with minimal
ornamentation.
