You can transform any living space into a well-cooled, well-lit oasis with the help of ceiling fans. Besides promoting cool airflow, overhead fans deliver an aura of old-fashioned Southern comfort and style. Whether you're looking for small outdoor ceiling fans with lights to cool and brighten your porch or patio or want to add a resort-inspired finishing touch with tropical ceiling fans featuring palm-style blades to your lanai or Florida room, our impressive collection of ceiling and lighting fans is sure to please. To paraphrase Thomas Edison, they will provide inspiration while banishing perspiration.

Styles and Types of Ceiling Fans

Whether you enter keywords in the search box above or simply browse these pages, it's easy to search thousands of unique styles here at 1800Lighting.com. You'll find an incredible array of products at your fingertips, from ultra-modern ceiling fans with light kits to truly traditional overhead fans that fuse classic shades with warm wood finishes. It's easy to find a fan that looks tailor-made for your space.

We have curated our ceiling fan collection with top-rated styles by Casablanca, Kichler, Minka-Aire and Quorum International. We also proudly stock other leading brands, including Fanimation.

You can opt for two-in-one convenience when you pick a ceiling fan with light kit from our selection. These fixtures are equipped with quality light kits, including LED options, which provide you with the perfect level of ambient or task lighting for your particular room. LED bulbs are becoming increasingly popular for their energy stinginess and their long lives. They can save you money by cutting utility and replacement costs while also helping the environment by reducing waste.

We also have a wide range of ceiling fans without lights. These make an excellent option for spaces where you prefer a more minimalist look or that already have more-than-adequate lighting, either natural or supplied. We carry indoor and outdoor ceiling fans with light fixtures built-in, so you'll be able to find the ideal style for whatever application you can dream up. If you have a home in Florida or the islands or just wish you did, our tropical ceiling fans are a top-notch pick for your open-air environments, especially when you want to create the inviting, refreshing feel of a beachside cabana.

Cooling a Room with a Ceiling Fan

The big question is, do ceiling fans help keep a room cool? The answer is a resounding yes. Indoors, they help circulate air and keep a room cooler in the warmer months. Additionally, because hot air rises, you can use a ceiling fan in the winter to cycle that warm air down to ground level. Run your fan clockwise in winter for best results.

Regardless of the season, a ceiling fan can save you real dollars on your utility bills. For more information, see our guide on cutting energy costs with ceiling fans.

Indoor and Outdoor Ceiling Fans

Ceiling fans are perfect for indoor and outdoor use. But before you purchase one, make sure you take measurements of your room, so you will get the right size. If your ceiling fan is too small, it won't properly cool or warm your space. Conversely, if it's too big, you may have hurricane-force winds to contend with. It could even become a safety hazard.

If you're not sure what size is right for the room you have in mind, please call us toll-free. Our highly trained fan and lighting experts will help you find the right size. In addition, they will be happy to assist you with any other questions you may have.

Be sure to choose a ceiling fan designed for your location. Outdoor ceiling fans are more weather resistant and made to withstand temperature and humidity extremes.

Lighting for Ceiling Fans

Not all ceiling fans come with lighting options. Picking a ceiling fan with lighting, or one that may be adapted with a lighting kit, may help you save space, time and money. You'll want to select the right light bulb for your ceiling fan, because the lighting compartments require specific bulb types and wattage.

Thanks to our huge selection, you won't have to compromise style or aesthetics to enjoy a cooler environment. With the filters on the left side of our Web page, you can easily narrow down our broad assortment of overhead fans to find white, nickel and bronze fans as well as brass and vintage-style ceiling fans that go with your particular design scheme.

We are a premier resource for unique ceiling fans, including vintage styles with eye-catching banded designs and contemporary options with blades that look like real works of art. We even have double-blade ceiling fans for an exceptionally original appeal.
