Not everyone is able to decorate all rooms in their household with a spacious ceiling fan showcasing blades that stretch 42- to 52-inches into the open. For this reason, manufacturers create separate lines of "micro" or "petite" fans to decorate and circulate air throughout smaller spaces. With these selections, some models even provide satisfying lighting options. Below you will find a few choices to mull over when you are trying to add a new look to your small den, personal office, or bathroom:
Monte Carlo
To outfit a room in your house with a smaller ceiling fan, consider the line of Micro Monte Carlo Damp Rate Fans, which offers a blade span of 24 inches. The UL- and CUL-listed models work well in damp locations and with the purchase of a light kit, pop in a 60-watt bulb to enjoy reading your favorite book on the patio just as the sun begins to set. The weather resistant blades make the perfect outdoor fan accompaniment with an assortment of selections. You may choose between the Brushed Nickel finish with mahogany blades; Royal Bronze finish with teak blades; and a white finish with white blades.
Westinghouse
The Westinghouse Petite Ceiling Fan collection offers a wide-range of 30-inch options that most often provide convenient reversible blades in many cases. Choose the white finish to switch back and forth between white and whitewash pine blades. The brass finish allows you to decide between oak or walnut. A single globe light with a 60-watt bulb provides light for the room. Westinghouse also markets 30-inch bright brass fans and a line of 30-inch "Turbo Swirl" options, such as an aluminum model that offers light maple blades.
Hunter
When 20 inches seems too small and you wish to avoid an overbearing presence of a 52-inch ceiling fan, Hunter offers selections in their line of 36-inch Bainbridge and 36-inch ORBit fans. With the white Bainbridge Hunter fan, you will receive the convenience of reversible white or bleached oak blades. A frosted globe light kit is provided, as well as hardware for a flush mount. When it comes to the line of ORBit Hunter fans, you may choose between the likes of a Brushed Nickel finish with reversible Cool Grey and Maple blades; and white finish with white blades. Looking for more features? Keep in mind that a light kit and remote control are available.
Casablanca
The petite line of ceiling fans under the Casablanca name offers selections called Wailea, where the moisture-resistant "Direct Drive" motor is backed by a lifetime warranty. To ensure the utmost movement of air, the blade span measures 31 ¼ inches. When looking for a bit more out of your ceiling fan, optional controls are available with this line of smaller models. Overall, there is no denying the appeal of the more elegant Wailea Antique Brass and Wailea Brush Nickel, which comes with a brushed nickel motor and matte black blades. A more simple style is seen in the Rustic Iron and Snow White models.
