QUOTE(ayrez7 @ Jul 14 2017, 08:32 PM) Hmm, I was looking around for KDK and Panasonic, but I guess not these? It is. They are also called baby fans for having short blade and short necks made specifically to suit low ceilings. Other brands may carry the same type. |

QUOTE(GamersFamilia @ Jul 12 2017, 08:34 PM) yea wall fan should be good The problem with wall fan and those baby ceiling fans is the cooling capacity is not as good as a ceiling fan.A larger ceiling fan like 56" or 60" can circulate air better. |

QUOTE(ayrez7 @ Jul 14 2017, 08:18 AM) On the same item, need some advices as well. I have a 10 ft ceiling in condo, and let's say after plaster ceiling it is around 9 - 9.5 ft (using 6 inch downlights). Don't go for flat plaster ceiling. You can box up some areas and it will look higher.1. Any ways to make my ceiling look higher? Planning to do a plain flat plaster ceiling now. or is it more advisable to do plaster ceiling on the sides for the 4 downlights? 2. If I proceed with flat plaster ceiling, will it be okay for me to install the ceiling fan? Will it be too low? Planning to get Panasonic Bayu 5 blades.... Thanks ahead for your comments!! Anyway, 9 - 9.5 ft ceiling can still install ceiling fan. If you're still worried, then go for the short pipe version. |

QUOTE(xproc @ Jul 18 2017, 11:27 PM) small room 4 blade.... big room 5 blade... Actually I feel the size of the fan is more important.Use bigger diameter fan for bigger size room. For example, I have a room that is 14' x 16' but only using a 3-blade fan. Difference is this fan is 70" diameter and the coverage is very good for my room.
