Ceiling fans with their 120 years of history saw some revolutionary changes in the design and style and the latest being the ceiling fan with a remote control which has buttons to turn the fan off or on, regulate the speed or reverse the wind flow.



A good ceiling fan should have the capacity for higher delivery of air with less noise, less wobbling, longer usage, good paint which will resist corrosion and scratching. The design should adhere to all the mandatory safety regulations.

Aerodynamics in the fan results in air delivery. Aerodynamic design includes factors such as angle of the blades, depth of the blade, rotations per minute and the design of the motor. Higher RPM highlighted by the manufacturers does not mean higher delivery of air.

Ceiling fans are available in sizes of 56", 48", 42", 36" and 24''. Higher air circulation can be achieved by using a ceiling fan with a bigger blade surface.

People normally have a wrong notion that more blades in a ceiling fan will result in more air circulation. It is totally wrong. A 4 blade ceiling fan and 3 blade ceiling fan will deliver same amount of air.

To get best results from the ceiling fan, install them so that the height of the plane of rotation of the blades is nearly 8 feet from the ground. Similarly ensure that the height of the ceiling is just 1 feet from the plane of rotation of the blades.

To ensure proper delivery of air, check the room size, ventilation, and fan size. Increase the speed to maximum and then check at different locations of room for good air delivery. Ensure that the angle of the blade is fixed as per the instruction manual.

Wipe the dust accumulated in the ceiling fan, using a moist or soft cloth. To preserve the gloss of the paint, avoid using detergents and soaps to clean the fan. Avoid applying too much pressure when you are cleaning the fan since it might change the angle of the blades.

The technology in a table or pedestal fan is similar to the ceiling fan. When buying a table or desk fan ensure it operates quietly without too much noise, oscillates smoothly, and has a heavy duty metal housing and a good speed controller.

If you are bored with looking at a drab and plain table fan you can spend approx $35 and get a table fan which has illuminated LEDs. With random selection technology the illumination changes its pattern and designs of lighting.
