Hot Yet? Keep Cool with Modern Fan


A quick primer for selecting the right Modern Fan for your indoor and outdoor room:

What size fan should I buy?

A fan that is too big for your room may look awkward. A fan that is too small probably will not move enough air. Blade span is the key. Here are some basic recommendations:

  • For rooms up to 225 square feet (15′ x 15′) and larger, use a fan with a blade span of 50″, 52″, 54″, or 56″.
  • In rooms up to 144 square feet (12′ x 12′) we recommend fans with blade spans of 42″ or 44″.
  • Smaller rooms up to 64 square feet (8′ x 8′) should use a fan with a 32″ blade span.
