Outdoor ceiling fans
Outdoor fans are very common. The purpose seems to be this:
Say you're sitting outside on your porch in the summer, what feels better than the breeze? But some days have no wind. So that's when you turn on the fans. They also drive bugs away.
If a fan is going to be exposed to rain and snow and such, you'll want to make sure it is sealed so water cannot get into electrical parts. If it's not actually going to be getting wet, just somewhere exposed to changes in climate (a covered porch, etc) you generally look for a fan with a finish that won't rust and blades that won't warp. You don't necessarily need a special "outdoor fan" for this. Especially common in the south, people have been using Hunter Originals outside for decades.
Many companies offer fans that are specifically rated for these situations. These fans will have Underwriters Laboratories certification for damp or wet locations. If a fan is going to be subjected to these conditions it is important that it is able to do so safely.
Lastly, sometimes a better option is to use an industrial ceiling fan.
These are far more powerful than conventional ceiling fans, have metal
blades that will not warp, and heavy duty epoxy finishes. Many models
are sealed for damp, wet, and rough service applications. See
'Industrial/Commercial Ceiling Fans'
for more information.
