Outdoor Ceiling Fan - Series #2

outdoor-ceiling-fan-2 Summary: Outdoor Ceiling Fan Installation - Series #2. Continuing with the installation and assembly, the ceiling fan becomes a fine addition to this patio.


Installing an Outdoor Ceiling Fan in a covered Patio Area,


Outdoor Ceiling Fan- Series-2
The installation continues without any trouble at all, in fact you will notice through my comments that I was quite impressed with this outdoor ceiling fan.
I was especially impressed when I realized that not only are these ceiling fans constructed to withstand weather conditions such as moisture, but provision has been made to reduce insect penetration as well.

Safety Note: If the outdoor ceiling fan is accessible and you are using the pull chain to operate it while being in contact with a grounded surface, or if the ceiling fan is within 5 feet of the inside wall of a hot tub or spa then GFCI protection is required.
