How to choose a bedroom ceiling fan?

Hi 

I want to change the neon light in the bedroom to an electric ceiling fan with remote control. the bedroom is 12m2 and 2.6 m high. Unfortunately  not too airy, only a small part of the huge window can be opened and my place suffers from mould buildup.

I decided to help the air moving around to get a ceiling fan but there are too many choices and need help with choosing. My budget is max $200 but less is better.

please help . Thanks

Re: ceiling fam for bedroom

Hi @diyerau,

 

For your budget , there are several options that combine both fan and light features. These units are typically come with a remote control, making them a convenient option for controlling the airflow in your room. For a 12m² room, a fan with a 1200mm blade span should be sufficient to circulate air effectively. To stay within your budget, consider looking at brands such as Arlec or Brilliant Lighting, which offer affordable and reliable ceiling fans with lights and remote controls. The Arlec 120cm Ceiling Fan With Clipper Light is the most budget-friendly option.

 

 

When switching from a neon light to a ceiling fan, keep in mind that the fan mount may not align perfectly with the existing light fixture, and you might need to patch any mounting holes left behind by the previous light.

 

You will need to employ the services of an electrician for installation. I recommend you consider our Ceiling Fan Installation offer, as it's a convenient way to have your fan installed.

 

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hi Mitchell, 

I checked the fan you suggested on your website and it only received 1 star review. 
I don’t want the cheapest fan on the market, I want something good. I’m willing to pay more for the quality . Please recommend a couple of good quality fans. Thanks.

Hi @diyerau,

 

You might like to check out our range on the Bunnings website. Perhaps something like the HPM 1200mm White 4 Blade Ceiling Fan might suit your needs.
