Black ceiling fans have recently gained popularity due to their simple, sleek, and aesthetically pleasant design. There are many designers jumping into the action! Not only do black fans offer the obvious temperature variation, they can pretty much go with every decor. Some black fans are made of wood, with black paint; others simply have black bases. Black ceiling fans are available through Westinghouse, Casablanca, Minka Aire, Hunter, Ellington, Lowes, and many more companies.
There are a few guidelines a buyer should follow before deciding on a particular size and model: firstly, a 30″ fan usually works best in a room less than 100 square feet. Secondly, a 42″ fan is perfect for 150 square feet; a 52″ fan is good for 400 square feet, and lastly a 60″ fan is great for anything larger than 400 square feet (20×20). For rectangular rooms, one should consider two smaller fans instead; a large rectangle can be divided into two squares easily making it much easier for the fan to regulate temperature correctly.
When deciding upon which black fan to purchase, another valid consideration has to do with the amount of blades on the fan. A standard home ceiling fan has four to five blades in its make-up, which is ideal for larger homes; even four or five blades do not create much noise. Sometimes, industrial ceiling fans have only two or three blades allowing for it to spin quickly, but noise is definitely a factor.
Black ceiling fans made of wood happen to be the most popular choice because of their rustic beauty. Even though the fan is black, the wood texture seems to shine through giving more of a balanced look. The wooden black fan appears less sterile, as it blends into nearly every environment. The Casablanca black ceiling fans are balanced well, for they have six blades, and they fit best in laundry rooms, walk-ins, and other cramped places. The basic Casablanca fan is made of nickel with matte black blades; it has a three-speed motor, a 25 degree blade pitch, a 31″ blade span, and a 3″ downrod. The Casa Vieja black, rust ceiling fan has a natural, cozy appearance; it’s slim and sleek, with cherry-red blades and a rusty, black base. Moreover, the Casa Vieza has a 4 and 1/2″ downrod, three-speed reversible motor, 52″ balde span, a 14 degree blade pitch, an Amber light kit, and a five inch canopy. It also takes two candelabra 40 watt bulbs; the light kit is optional. The Casa Optima has a contemporary steel finish with checkered squares, and black finish blades. The lighting permeates through the checker base, but the acrylic glass buffers the glare. This fan also has three speeds, and a pull-chain to operate them. A remote device is optional. CFL (energy efficient) bulbs will stop the dimmer option, so make sure to use different bulbs if the dimmer will be used. It has a 14-degree blade pitch, and a lifetime motor warranty. Moreover, the Optima comes with three CFL bulbs. The actual fan’s height is roughly twelve inches.
