The Best Ceiling Fans Have DC Motors
DC ceiling fans offer a new and better way to keep cool. We only sell DC-motor ceiling fans.
Somewhat confusingly, DC ceilings fans still use standard 240V mains power - the same as regular ceiling fans. So they're just as easy for an electrician to install.
The AC/DC difference is all hidden inside. A regular ceiling fan uses mains power (Alternating Current) to run its motor. On the other hand, a DC ceiling fan converts the mains power into Direct Current (via a transformer) to operate its motor.
There are several benefits to DC ceiling fans, including:
- DC fans are quiet ceiling fans. DC motors operate in near silence, particularly at low to medium speeds.
- Variable speed control. DC ceiling fans have more speed control options than other ceiling fans.
- Energy-efficient ceiling fans. This means they are the cheapest ceiling fans to operate. For example, our Noosa white ceiling fan in the small size uses just 2.4W of power on the slowest speed.
- Sleek and responsive. DC motors tend to occupy less space and weigh less. This means they can be housed in better-looking fans - just like our EGO Noosa range pictured above. You can even send them into reverse mode directly from the remote control. (With old AC fans you need to climb a ladder and flick a switch on the unit in order to change direction).
