Indoor and Outdoor Ceiling Fan Installation

Not all ceiling fans are built the same. Indoor fans are not rated for outdoor exposure – moisture and humidity damage the motor and create a safety risk over time.
Outdoor-rated fans carry an IP rating that protects against humidity, rain splash, and coastal air. On the Gold Coast, where salt air is a real factor in coastal suburbs like Palm Beach and Burleigh Heads, using the right fan for the right environment matters.
Keegan Electrical Co advises on the correct fan type for every location before supply or installation begins.
