Generally
children’s bedrooms are smaller in size and often have hazards such as wall
shelves, wardrobes, bunk beds, oh, and the kids throwing things and jumping
around! So how to you choose a ceiling fan which will be safe, keep them cool
and suit a kids bedroom?
Firstly,
look at the fan size. For a 3m X 3m room you won’t want a fan much bigger than about
36” - 42” fans in diameter. A couple of examples of small ceiling fans are the MyFan Harlequin and the Martec Lifestyle Mini. Both of these fans are suited to a
small kid’s room, are light adaptable and come in a range of colours. The
Harlequin fan can even come with fun multi-coloured blades!
In order to
avoid mechanical and physical damage to your fan our electrician has supplied
some things to consider when deciding on fan placement:
·
Are there wardrobe doors which could open into the fan
blades?
·
Are there wall shelves that could be too close to the
fan?
·
If you have bunk beds, is there the potential of the
fan making contact with the bed or someone grabbing the blades?
Once you
know you are happy that the fan will be safe you can experiment with different
colours that suit the theme and colour scheme of the small room. So there you
go, choosing a fan for a smaller room isn’t so hard after all! If you’re still
having trouble deciding or need to clarify anything please contact our friendly
