Domande Frequenti

What is CFM?
Cubic Feet per Minute — the airflow volume a fan moves per minute. Higher CFM means more air movement.
Can I use a larger fan in a small room?
A slightly larger fan running at lower speed is often quieter and more efficient.
What ceiling height is needed?
A minimum of 2.1 m from floor to blade for safety. Use a flush-mount fan for low ceilings.
