Written by Progress Lighting | Mar 30, 2023 8:00:00 PM

When was the last time you changed your ceiling fan? Spring signals the start of ceiling fan season, and it may be time for your ceiling fan to catch up with the current designs. Today's fans are functional and stylish, with fashionable elements that complement other accessories, contribute to your overall interior design, and even serve as the focal point of a room.  

Find Your Style

Our ceiling fans combine beautiful design with premium performance. From curved, carved, and sleek fan blades in a multitude of finishes to great-looking style that fits seamlessly into today's design trends, we're giving ceiling fans the attention they deserve. When selecting a fan, consider fan shape, blade features and finish to help you meet the room's design needs.

Ceiling Fans that Keep Cool Air Circulating in Style

The Freestone Collection

Our Freestone ceiling fan sports a wire-formed cage that adds a touch of casual style and five reversible plywood blades that offer a customizable option to complement the room's decor style. In addition, the light kit features a shatter-proof opal white shade for a soft glow and includes medium-based, energy-efficient LED lamps.  

The Bastrop Collection

Introduce a rustic industrial style to your home with Bastrop, whose updated vintage styling comes from its wood tone and metal cage frame construction and curved fan blades that feature an interesting bend. A damp location rating makes Bastrop ideal for both indoor and covered outdoor use. Manvel offers modern elegance in a sleek form.

The Manvel Collection

Manvel offers modern elegance in a sleek form. With a trio of hand-finished ABS blades delivering an expansive 60-inch sweep and an energy-efficient DC motor rated for indoor and outdoor applications, this ceiling fan is an ideal centerpiece for living rooms, great rooms, or an outdoor covered porch.

Selecting Ceiling Fan Features  

Form + function: our ceiling fans offer the best of both. Consider these factors when selecting your fan:

  • Year-Round Use. Do you want to use your ceiling fan year-round? Select a fan with reversible blades for the option to circulate cool air in summer or warm air in winter.  
  • Efficiency. To save energy and green your home, consider an ENERGY STAR-rated fixture.
  • Lighting. To get in on today's lighting trends, go for a layered lighting design in your space by installing a light kit or selecting a fan with a pre-installed fixture.
  • Control. Some fans feature full-range dimming and full-function remote control capabilities to offer added convenience in controlling a room's environment.  

Sizing Your Space

Size is important when selecting a ceiling fan. If a fan is too large, it can overwhelm the space. On the flip side, the airflow may be inadequate if the fan is too small. Here's how to size it right:

  • Under 144 sq. ft. - under 42"
  • 144-225 sq. ft. - 44 to 50"  
  • 225-400 sq. ft. - 0ver 50"  
  • 400 sq. ft or more: Over 60"
