Ceiling fans are very important for all classes. These are widely used and help us to have relaxed sleep even in summers. Simple ceiling fan has a long rod that is used to connect the fan motor to the base which is then affixed to the ceiling. For a normal ceiling fan you need a high ceiling to carry it. So nowadays a new kind of ceiling fan has come in the market called hugger ceiling fans. These fans are quite different from other ceiling fans because they have no metal rod and are connected very closely to the ceiling. Thus, the blades of hugger fans are very close to the ceiling than in any other ceiling fans. These fans are called hugger because they hug the ceiling like no other. It also comes with the option of short metal rod. So this kind of fans can be easily installed in shorter height ceiling as well. These ceiling fans are quite popular in offices where the height of ceiling is usually shorter.
Hugger fans were basically designed for low ceiling but now a day they are used everywhere. They are designed in such a manner that their blades remain away from the floor as they possibly can be and give them more clearance. But because of this design the air circulation is impeded which is one of the major disadvantage of this kind of fans. Also they are not as efficient and effective as other fans are because the blades of hugger ceiling fans are very close to the ceiling. These hugger fans are mostly used where ceiling height is only 8 feet and this height further increases if your furniture height like bed and sofa is also more than regular basis.
As there is lot of competition in every field which results in great technology advancement, ceiling fan industry has also developed a number of product. So, there are various styles and designs available in the market for hugger ceiling fans. This has also resulted in decrease in the rate of fans and companies are offering huge discounts.
