Can this fan be used on a screened patio?

I would think so. We have in our kitchen eating area. Fan is VERY powerful, you need to nail everything down if using any higher than low! Bright lights, remote control and the fan portion pivots. We love it!

Depends on where you live. We have one in the kitchen area and it's fabulous but here in West Texas I wouldn't put one on a screened porch - too much windswept dirt and sand

Gary, My concern would be having the fan exposed to moisture. If you live in a dry area this may not be a problem. I live in Florida so it probably is not a good idea here. Mine is installed in my living room.

Assuming the fan wil be protected from the elements [rain, wind and heat] this fan would be ideal. Its rustic tones draws the eye to the fan in our living room and receives nothing but compliments.

I would not put this on a screened porch. Because of the roof, it would be dangerous and cause problems.

No. It is for safety reasons only. The fan is meant to be installed to the inside of the window's bug screen.

Yes the fan can be used out doors. If you are concerned about moisture effecting the blades spray some clear shellac.

I am using mine on my screened in porch. It's been out there a few weeks now and works fine. Of course it's under a roof so it doesn't get wet when it rains.

It would have to be protected from moisture - not sure a screened porch could stop the moisture in the air.

This fan is wet rated. It is meant for outdoor use. One of the few you could actually use on a perrgola.

Technically, it's an indoor fan but assuming the patio cover is full covered and free from leaks or risk of water exposure I don't see why not.

This fan isn't an outdoor fan so don't think it would do get in wet situation. Blades not real piece of wood.

No,this fan we're using in our bedroom.I'm not sure that you couldn't use it outdoors.

I don't believe that this fan is rated for outdoor use, but that is not where I was installing this fan.

By design this is an indoor only fan so it should only be used in fully enclosed indoor type space with walls, insulation etc... For outdoor use you would want a fan labeled "indoor/outdoor", a fan like this would be constructed with ABS blades instead of wood blades and the metal finishes and corrosion resistance properties would be more appropriate for an outdoor setting.

You could probably use it on a screened in porch. It's only lit by a tea-candle. I have mine on my wall and it looks beautiful - I rarely use it though. It's become more for decor for me.

No way, this is an indoor fan only. There are some good outdoor fans at Lowes.com

I have it mounted on a pergula in our patio to provide airflow. It has been out in the weather for more than a year with no apparent problems.

Hello! Unfortunately, this particular fan is not rated for wet locations. Monte Carlo does have a similar looking item that is rated for outdoor use. That number is #5WF42BK. Please let me know if I can help in any other way. Lighting and Locks Beth
