In modern homes, ceiling fans have remained famous for their purposes not only as stylistic components but also as the device necessary to regulate the concentration of warm air in the rooms.

Originally, they were designed just for the circulation of air but with passing years, they have been invented in such a way that many of the ceiling fans also have light appended to it and hence they are very useful home commodities. 

The Benefits of Ceiling Fans with Lights

There are so many benefits of having ceiling fans with lights and they include the following;

Compact design

The thing that can be said regarding ceiling fans with light bulbs, particularly when compared to other types of ceiling fans, is that they are very compact. While before, homeowners used to install different ceiling lights and fans, now they can have them in one set. 

Energy Efficiency

Ceiling fans are very useful when it comes to the conservation of energy and when used together with lights, the use of ceiling fans is way better than the use of air conditioners or multiple lights. New ceiling fans that have been produced come with LED lights which are more efficient in the use of energy and have a longer lifespan than normal bulbs.

Design and beauty

Being able to control light as well as having separate features for lighting gives ceiling fans with lights more aesthetic appeal than a nothing but utilitarian fixture. It is also available in different types of styles, finishes, and designs that enable the homeowners to opt for a preferred style.

Comfort and Lighting:

Ceiling fans with lights usually have an option of a remote control or a switch on the wall, whereby one can easily set the speed of the fan, the brightness of the light, or the direction of the airflow. Some of the professional models even come with intelligent functions whereby one can control the fan and the light through his or her Smartphone or speak to the light through voice control devices such as Google Home or Amazon Alexa.

Key Features to Consider

Size of the Fan

The fans that are either too big or too small may not deliver the best quality of airflow. In any case, for rooms smaller than 75 square feet a fan with a blade span between 29 to 36 inches is sufficient but in the case of rooms larger than 400 square feet a fan with blade span equal to or more than 52 to 60 inches is needed.

Available Lighting Modalities

Options should include dimmable, warm, or cool, and the type of light source which can be LED, halogen, or CFL among others. It is the most efficient of the options and it is generally selected due to longer usage and less energy consumption as compared with other forms of lighting.

Fan Motor and Blade Design

The well-chosen material and design of the fan are very crucial. Motors that are fabricated using high-quality materials will also be less noisy, consume less energy, and are long-lasting.

Another factor that determines the performance of the particular fan is the design of the blades. Blade pitch or the angle of the blades to the horizontal determines the amount of the volume of air it can move with higher pitches performing better at moving air.

Mounting options

For ceiling fans with lights you have various choices on how to mount them:

If your ceiling is less than eight feet tall, standard leg mounts are suitable for rooms with high ceilings of 8 to 9 feet while low profile or hugger model leg mounts are designed for low ceiling rooms.

For those big and spacious rooms with or even high ceilings, one can use an extended down rod so that it can get to the right height.

Conclusion

Ceiling fans that have built-in lights are functional as well as stylish which makes them ideal additions to any home. Being able to save space, increase energy efficiency, and as a bonus, look good, these practicalities have made these versatile elements very sought after by homeowners.
