| 52 inch ceiling fans
are the most popular size ceiling fan in the United States. This is because
room sizes dictate the size of your ceiling fan blade and a 52"
ceiling fan is sized for rooms ranging from 225 to 400 square feet.
A 225 square foot room is 15' x 15' which is a fairly standard small guest
bedroom size. 400 square foot on the other hand is 20' x 20' and is just
about at the limits of most larger bedrooms. If your room is larger than
20' x 20' you would probably opt for multiple ceilings of small fan blade
size rather than get a larger fan.
Ceiling fans should be mounted in the center of the room and at least 7 feet above the floor. Ideally you would want the fan even higher if possible. If you have a standard 8 foot ceiling then you can use a flush mount to get the fan as close to the ceiling as possible, or maybe even use a small downrod. Flush mounts should only be used when absolutely necessary because the airspace above the fan blades is just as important in determining airflow. Below are some of the most popular 52 inch ceiling fans on the market. |
