Can I use a ceiling fan outside?

The Torrento Fan from Fanimation.
You can use a ceiling fan anywhere you have a ceiling. Covered decks, porches and gazebos make great spots for a fan. Underwriter's Laboratory lists fans for outdoor use are two types of listings: "damp location" and "wet location". Damp location is suitable for most outdoor uses while wet location is intended for more severe situations.

FanShack has a plentiful supply of both damp and wet ceiling fans for purchase. To see available damp rated fans, click here. To see available wet rated fans, click here!

Fanimation Torrento Prize Winner!

The Torrento floor fan from Fanimation with BPP4 blades.
In November 2011, our parent company, Shack Design Group, held a text-in promotion through Clear Channel radio on Big 105.9 Classic Rock for a chance to win a Torrento floor fan from Fanimation!

Rick Beaver, our November 2011 Torrento Winner!

That lucky winner was Rick Beaver. Rick was thrilled when he saw the fan, thinking that it was a small portable fan that sat on the floor.

Congratulations to Rick! And stay on the lookout for future promotions held by FanShack! You'll never know when you'll catch an opportunity on the radio, in the newspaper, in our showroom, or anywhere else!
