Low profile ceiling fan, fit for every low height ceiling
A low profile ceiling fan is the only option for a low height ceiling room. If you don't have enough clearance for a downrod ceiling fan, this type of fan (also known as hugger fans or close-to-ceiling fans) provides all the benefits of a ceiling fan in a sorter form. So, your ceiling height is no longer an obstacle to the installation of a ceiling fan.
Some people think a hugger fan is less efficient than a regular ceiling fan, because it's placed so close to the ceiling - this is a common mistake. The reason regular ceiling fans have downrods is so the fans are placed nearer to the floor when installed in high ceiling. With a lower ceiling, there's no need for it : and the few inches above it are still more than adequate for air movement. You'll be able to feel it the moment your turn it on.
You now have no excuse not to have a ceiling fan in your room. Even with its low ceiling, it's still a perfect candidate for a low profile ceiling fan. Believe me, once you install it, you'll wonder why you haven't done it sooner. Suddenly, those hot summer days will become a lot more enjoyable.
