Have you heard of wet rated outdoor ceiling fans?

Actually, I have no idea what wet rated is it, so let me search it first…

I see… this is an outdoor ceiling fan’s feature.  When you say ‘wet rated’, it means that this ceiling fan can be installed in areas exposed to water.  An uncovered area which can be wet by rain.  That is ‘wet rated’.  ’Damp rated’ is a ceiling fan which can be installed in covered areas such as patio or porch.

Wet rated ceiling fans can be installed in covered areas but damp rated ceiling fans can’t be installed in uncovered areas.  But both outdoor ceiling fans can be installed indoor without thinking if it is ‘wet or damp rated’ ceiling fans.

Another information to share with everyone!
