Frequently Asked Questions

How big is a 42-inch ceiling fan?

A 42-inch ceiling fan refers to the diameter of the fan blades. Therefore, on fans with an even number of blades, there will be 42 inches from one blade tip to the opposite blade tip. For models with an odd number of blades, you’ll measure from the center of the fixture to the tip of a blade (in this case you’d get 21 inches), then multiply that by two to get the diameter (42 inches). Learn how to measure a ceiling fan with our step-by-step guide for more assistance.
