Spring has officially arrived and summer is quick on its heels. This can only mean one thing: You're about to spend a lot more time on your porch or patio.
Today, outdoor living spaces are just as feature-rich and functional as home interiors, including many familiar convenient comforts.
Outdoor ceiling fans are one focal point that can tie your exterior together and help it feel like an extension of your living room. Today, we're sharing seven of our top favorites that offer year-round style.
All of these fans are rated for outdoor use and wet locations by the UL. This means you can be confident that they'll perform as expected while delivering plenty of eye-catching style.
1. Tropical Leaf Ceiling Fan
You might not be able to escape to the Hawaiian islands this year, but you can always evoke the laidback vibe of the coast with your patio decor!
Start by installing a Tropical Leaf Edition Coastal Air Ceiling Fan by Gulf Coast Fans. This 52-inch fan features hand-carved blades as well as a robust, high-performance DC motor.
While many competing brands use plastic to shape their fan blades into leaf shapes, this model uses real, solid wood that gives it a premium touch. It's also energy-efficient and customizable to meet your needs, with two motor finishes and six different blade finishes to fit any style.
2. Drum-Style Rustic Ceiling Fan
There's no denying the universal appeal of modern farmhouse style. Whether you're shiplapping every wall or just adopting the trend in small doses, rustic touches will never be rendered outdated.
Take a look at this Kodiak Drum-Style Ceiling Fan by Vaxcel Lighting, for instance. With finishes that include brushed teak wood and oil-rubbed bronze metal, it fits seamlessly with any personal aesthetic, from ultra-modern to primitive.
With intricate cutouts of bears and pine trees, the caged fan would look especially at home in your cabin's outdoor kitchen! It's also universal enough to fit in well anywhere, from your living room to your townhome patio.
3. Extra-Large Industrial Ceiling Fan
Do you have a spacious outdoor area to fill? From business park patios to oversized residential porches, there are many spots where a standard-size fan isn't enough. You need a powerful air-mover that can get the job done.
Enter, the Liberator Indoor/Outdoor Industrial Ceiling Fan by TroposAir. This 96-inch beauty features sleek aluminum blades and plenty of strength to cool even your most expansive rooms.
This fan is available in three different finishes, including oil-rubbed bronze, brushed nickel, and pure white. In all, it offers incredible value and versatility, delivering a high-end look for a fraction of the cost.
4. Windmill-Inspired Ceiling Fan
Nothing beats a cool breeze on a hot summer day. It's even more enjoyable to watch a windmill spin happily nearby!
Don't have such an installation in your backyard? You can easily mimic the look!
Inspired by the famous Holland windmills that dot the Netherlands, the Windflower Windmill Ceiling Fan by Modern Forms is as stunning as it is stylish.
The 80-inch fan includes 12 unique blades and comes in three different finishes. The best part? The entire system is controllable via the innovative, WiFi-connected Modern Forms mobile app!
5. Mission-Style Lantern Fan
Inspired by the Mission-style lighting that dominated the 19th century, the Morrow Bay Light Outdoor Ceiling Fan adds instant sophistication to any space.
This 56-inch Craftmade fan is available in a rich espresso finish and comes equipped with four gorgeous teak blades for timeless appeal. The clean, minimalistic lines blend seamlessly with the warm details of the candelabra light kit.
Whether accenting your living room or livening up your back porch, it's a beautiful way to pay homage to one of the most classic designs of yesteryear. Plus, outdoor ceiling fans with lights let you extend the use of your living space far into the night!
6. Minimalist LED Ceiling Fan
Are you someone who favors bold design over bells and whistles? If so, you'll love the Aya Outdoor LED Ceiling Fan by Casablanca.
The 54-inch fan features two distinct blades available in a stunning black ash finish. Between the blades sits a dimmable LED bulb encased in a clean white porcelain cover. The bulb delivers a soft light that pours gorgeous illumination over any space, delivering an overdose of ambiance.
Perfect for any space where you want the decor to speak for itself, this fan is an instant show-stopper and sure to ignite plenty of conversations.
