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.

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).

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!!

Don't go for flat plaster ceiling. You can box up some areas and it will look higher.

Anyway, 9 - 9.5 ft ceiling can still install ceiling fan. If you're still worried, then go for the short pipe version.

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.
