Ceiling fans are such appliances that people cannot even think of living without. Every household has a minimum of two or more ceiling fans. These fans can be connected to the regular AC supply and run on a 24V internal DC motor.

These fans are capable of working on an input voltage range of 140V to 285V. Moreover, the compact motor boosts the blade speed, which results in better and broader air delivery.

The selection of a conventional ceiling fan is also dependent on the customer's need. For instance, the dimensions of the installation room is to be considered while buying the fan. The average temperature of their resident city plays a factor. Further, specific niche requirement also plays a factor in determining the choice of a fan.

Modern or Contemporary Fans

Selecting a modern fan depends mainly on the size of the future installation space. Generally, rooms that are more than square footage can lodge smart fans with broader and longer blades that have high CFM (cubic feet per minute) output. For residential houses subjugated by any industrial décor, there are various top-selling to select from. In these sorts of fans that come with an attached light, the connected light's viability is also to be checked, whether it is long-lasting, whether it is replaceable, and does it come in other colors.

The selection of these fans shall complement the ambiance of the room. Certain colors like grey, white and brown, which are of neutral color scheme, are recommended to blend in the environment easily. Moreover, neutral colors also pop up with a unique subtle touch while under the attached lantern's light, if any.

Timber Ceiling Fans

As the name suggests, these fans are generally produced using wood. Moreover, even fans made out of plastic give the fan a timber look that falls into this category. Essentially, if looking at the fan's design, they are generally used by purchasers who would want a more aesthetically pleasing fan.

Most importantly, the quality and type of the wood, in most cases these are made from some of the other forms of hardwood, but still, a quality check of the wood should be done beforehand.

Thus checking the quality shall be the paramount consideration of the buyer as it directly affects the fan's longevity.

General selection parameters like size, speed, and several blades apply to this category also. Moreover, the individual must keep the color of their room in check with brown, as most timber fans are brown such as our DARWIN 164cm / 65 inch 3 Blade DC Modern Ceiling Fan and this color doesn’t compliment every other neutral color. The noise produced by these sorts of fans shall also be considered, as these fans are generally advertised as being the quietest due to their elite material.

They are more common in restaurants and elite clubs as they enhance the aesthetic outlook of the place.
