Ceiling Fans
Beyond their obvious role in circulating air, ceiling fans are often added to a room for lighting and decorative reasons. From a functional standpoint ceiling fans come equipped with varying blade pitches. The higher the blade pitch, the more robust the motor needs to be in order to move the air and hence the more will be moved per rotation of the blades. Most reputable ceiling fans are available with a blade pitch of 14 degrees, and fans that are designed more for commercial application have a blade pitch of 16 degrees or higher. In the specifications of many ceiling fan manufacturers are guidelines to use in determining whether or not a ceiling fan size is appropriate for a particular size room.

From a lighting standpoint many fans come already equipped with an integrated light kit and others give consumers the option of choosing a light kit to be added to a particular fan. When adding a light kit to a fan it is often necessary to add an additional electrical wire to enable the light to functional properly. Some fans with remote capabilities are able to enable both the light and fan to work without additional electrical work.
Outdoor ceiling fans are wonderful additions from a decorative standpoint and as functional tools on verandas and patios.
