Get ready to elevate your space with a one-of-a-kind Windmill Ceiling Fan!
1. Determine the Right Size for Your Space
The first step in ordering your custom Windmill Ceiling Fan is selecting the right size. Our fans range from 46 inches to a whopping 96 inches in diameter, making them suitable for spaces of all sizes. For instance, our popular 72-inch fan is perfect for rooms around 30×30 feet with 15-foot ceilings. Not sure which size is best for your space? Give Kelly a call at 972-834-5555. She’ll help you determine the ideal fan size based on your room dimensions, ceiling height, and any slope considerations.
Step 2: Select Your Perfect Motor
We offer two motor types to power your Windmill Ceiling Fan: the Patriot and the American.
- The Patriot Motor: This motor is whisper-quiet, perfect for indoor spaces, and includes a reverse wall controller that fits into a standard wall switch panel. It’s ideal for fans 72 inches and smaller.
- The American Motor: A more powerful option, the American motor has a low, constant hum and is perfect for larger outdoor spaces. It doesn’t come with a reverse wall controller and is larger, so it won’t fit in a standard wall switch panel. This motor is ideal for areas 35×35 feet with 15-foot ceilings or more.
3. Pick the Perfect Downrod Length
The down-rod is the component that connects the fan’s motor to the mounting hardware, determining how far the fan hangs from the ceiling. Depending on your ceiling height, you’ll want to choose the appropriate down-rod length to ensure optimal airflow. We offer custom downrod lengths and have even created down rods as long as 20 feet in the past.
4. Choose Your Lighting Options
Lighting can be an essential aspect of your custom fan. Do you need a downlight to illuminate the room below the fan? Or would you prefer an uplight to brighten the ceiling above? We offer both options, and you can even choose to have both an uplight and a downlight on the same fan, with the ability to operate them independently. Check out our lighting options for more details.
- Downlight: Ideal if you need direct lighting for the room below the fan.
- Uplight: Perfect for creating ambient lighting by illuminating the ceiling above.
You can even opt for both, with each light operating independently, giving you maximum flexibility in setting the mood.
5. Add Custom Accents and Personal Touches
One of the most exciting parts of ordering a Windmill Ceiling Fan is the opportunity to add custom features. This is where your fan truly becomes one-of-a-kind! Consider adding a tail vane, painted tips, or even a leather- or cowhide-covered motor. You can also personalize your fan with a custom ranch brand or family logo.
- Tail Vanes: Available in traditional side placement or flat for better visibility from the floor. We offer two placement options for the tail vane: the traditional side version or flat so it can be easily seen from the floor.
- Painted Tips: Add a pop of color to the blades with any color or finish you’d like
- Leather or Cowhide Covered Motor: For a luxurious, rustic finish people also love u
- Custom Ranch Brand or Family Logo: Make your fan a true reflection of your heritage or personal style.
These unique features not only enhance the aesthetic appeal but also ensure your fan is a conversation starter in any room.
