FAQ

WHAT IS COASTAL RATED CEILING FANS?

 

Living in a coastal area? It's wise to consider investing in a coastal ceiling fan. These specialized fans are meticulously crafted using materials capable of withstanding the most challenging weather conditions. Unlike typical ceiling fans that are ill-equipped to handle the corrosive impact of salt in the air, coastal fans are constructed with durable components that excel in coastal environments, providing peace of mind against rust and any compromises in quality.

 

ARE OUTDOOR CEILING FANS SUITABLE FOR COASTAL AREAS?

 

Contrary to popular belief, coastal ceiling fans cannot be used interchangeably with outdoor ceiling fans. Many individuals, lacking knowledge about ceiling fans, mistakenly assume that any fan can serve as a coastal ceiling fan as long as it is utilized in coastal regions. However, this notion is entirely incorrect.

 

It is crucial to recognize that the coastal environment differs significantly from inland areas. The coastal breeze carries a prominent salt element, and the air's moisture level near the coast is incomparable to that found further inland. The saltiness can attract various minerals and pollutants, resulting in a dense atmosphere that may give the illusion of dryness despite the abundance of water in the air. Additionally, weather and climate conditions near the ocean can change rapidly. A sunny morning can swiftly transition into a cloudy afternoon, causing significant fluctuations in temperature and humidity.

 

Considering these factors and ensuring optimal performance place coastal ceiling fans in a distinct category compared to other fan types. The manufacturing process of these fans utilizes materials with higher-grade protection measures than those employed in outdoor ceiling fans. While regular ceiling fans may function in a salty air environment, they lack the necessary durability. Consequently, they may break down after just a few years of use.

 

Coastal ceiling fans are available in various styles and sizes, with island- and tropical-themed designs gaining popularity in the market. Some refer to them as nautical ceiling fans, but their designs draw inspiration from seaside vessels and lighthouses rather than palm trees and beach life. They are often constructed using materials such as aluminum, ABS, or plastic, although there are no strict limitations on the materials used for coastal ceiling fans. Furthermore, coastal ceiling fans tend to be lighter in weight compared to most fans due to their material composition. For optimal results, it is always advisable to use a coastal ceiling fan in buildings situated in areas with the most challenging weather conditions.

 

WHAT DISTINGUISHES COASTAL CEILING FANS FROM OTHER TYPES OF CEILING FANS?

 

The distinctive feature of coastal ceiling fans lies in their purposeful design, tailored to endure demanding environmental conditions. While residing near a coastal area offers numerous benefits, it also presents certain challenges, such as salt-laden air. You may have noticed outdoor ceiling fans succumbing to tarnish and rust due to the added moisture and salt in the atmosphere. In contrast, coastal ceiling fans are meticulously crafted using resilient materials, including exceptionally durable components that resist rusting.

 

WHAT ARE THE MATERIALS TYPICALLY USED IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF COASTAL CEILING FANS?

 

Ceiling fans are commonly constructed using plastic and aluminum, which have been popular choices for a while. Aluminum, in particular, has been the go-to material for coastal ceiling fans due to its rust-free properties, ensuring durability in outdoor settings. However, a new contender has emerged in recent years—ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene). ABS has swiftly gained favour as the preferred material for coastal areas, despite being relatively new in the market. It is highly regarded for its effectiveness in outdoor and coastal environments. Ceiling fan blades crafted from ABS offer a combination of benefits, including resistance to rust, exceptional performance, and a lightweight design. These qualities make ABS an excellent choice for achieving optimal airflow, efficiency, and adding a touch of style to any space.
