Pick a Porch Fan for Covered Outdoor Use

Outdoor porch ceiling fans are specifically crafted to withstand exposure to the elements in covered outdoor spaces. Engineered for powerful yet quiet performance, they’re the perfect solution for creating a refreshing breeze during hot days and warm nights. Outdoor fans for porch use are built to last, with durable materials and parts that are resistant to damp conditions. Damp-rated ceiling fans are ideal for screened-in porches that may experience humidity, but are not directly exposed to rain, snow, water, or moisture. If you’ve got a covered porch that’s exposed on the sides, you might want to consider a Hunter WeatherMax^® ceiling fan. Our toughest outdoor fans, WeatherMax ceiling fans are engineered for the elements – made from premium materials for top-of-the-line durability that doesn’t compromise on airflow or whisper-quiet operation. These wet-rated outdoor porch fans are corrosion-resistant and designed to work in the rain.

Find the Proper Outdoor Porch Fan Sizes

It’s important that your porch ceiling fan fits properly in your outdoor space to ensure safe and optimal function. The fan size you choose will depend on the shape and square footage of your porch. At Hunter, we carry small, medium, and large ceiling fans for porches so you can pick the right fan size for your space. Measure the porch where you plan to install your fan to determine which size will fit. Smaller fans with shorter blades are better for patios that are less than 100 square feet, while Hunter’s large porch ceiling fans can fit spaces of up to 400 square feet.

Ceiling height is also important when determining the correct mounting type for your porch fan. Measure the distance between the base of your ceiling and the floor. For ceilings lower than 8 feet tall, your best option is a flush-mount ceiling fan. If you’ve got a taller ceiling, you can choose from multiple sizes of downrod ceiling fans.

Select the Perfect Style for Your Outdoor Porch Fan

Also important is selecting a fan style and color that complements your outdoor design theme and the décor on your porch. Farmhouse or traditional designs make a classic, yet timeless, statement. Or you can add a flair of contemporary sophistication with a sleeker modern or industrial fan. Explore all your options, such as modern porch ceiling fans, coastal models, contemporary fixtures, and more.

Don't let weather limitations keep you from enjoying your porch. Shop Hunter porch fans today for the perfect cooling solution. So, whether you're enjoying a leisurely afternoon on the porch swing or hosting a backyard barbecue in another space, our outdoor ceiling fans keep the air flowing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use an indoor ceiling fan on a covered porch?

If you’re planning to install a ceiling fan on your porch – whether it’s covered or screened-in – you should look for a fan that’s rated for outdoor use. Outdoor porch ceiling fans are constructed with durable materials that are safer, operate more reliably, and last longer in outdoor environments.

What size ceiling fan is best for an outdoor porch?

The size of your porch ceiling fan depends on the size of your outdoor space. For smaller porches – say, 75 to 144 square feet – your fan’s blade span should not exceed 44 inches. For a larger porch that’s anywhere from 225 to 400 square feet, a fan can be up to 60 inches in blade span.
