Formed in 1985 Fantasia Ceiling Fans recognised as the pioneer of the UK market. As the UK climate continues to change, ceiling fans have gained popularity in the UK and the upsurge in demand for a high quality product like Fantasia has grown annually. Consumers now install Fantasia Fans not only in the lounge but also in bedrooms, kitchens, dining rooms and conservatories. The popularity of conservatories has grown rapidly and there is no doubt that a ceiling fan is an essential accessory.
Fantasia fans have both a forward and a reverse function, which means that they can be used all year round. In the summer the forward function creates a cooling breeze and in the winter the reverse function re-circulates warm air trapped at ceiling level.
The Fantasia range of modern and traditional styles has been developed over the past two decades and consists of over 20 models, 19 finishes and 7 sizes giving a total of 82 different fan options.
These are complemented by a comprehensive range of accessories, such as:
- Light Kits
- Wall Lights
- Remote Control
- Wall Controls
Fantasia fans can be more expensive than others on the market but this is because of their many superior qualities. The silicon steel motors are larger and the blade pitch steeper, increasing air movement and eliminating wobble, and the motors have double sealed bearings to ensure durability and quiet operation.
All metal finishes are double lacquered to prevent tarnishing and all fans are supplied with a 10-year warranty. See our Warranty Registration page for more information.
Fantasia are committed to developing the independent trade sector by offering quality, choice, value for money and service, all backed by Fantasia's development of the fan market.
Common Questions:
Q: WHAT FAN SIZE DO I NEED FOR MY ROOM?
A. For a room with a standard 8ft ceiling, recommended sizes are as follows:
36" fan for a room up to 12ft x 12ft
42" fan for a room up to 12ft x 14ft
52" fan for a room up to 15ft x 15ft
Two fans will usually be required for a room larger than 15ft x 15ft
For conservatories or south facing rooms we recommend that you increase the fan size relative to the room size to compensate for the higher temperatures reached in these areas
Q. HOW DO I CHOOSE THE CORRECT DROP ROD LENGTH?
A. For optimum air circulation it is most effective to have the blades 2.4m-2.7m above the floor, most fans are supplied with a 4"/100mm drop rod. If your new fan is being installed into a conservatory with an apex roof you will require a longer drop rod. All longer rods are supplied with a longer wiring lead as standard.
Q. HOW DOES A CEILING FAN COOL OR WARM A ROOM?
A. Ceiling fans can make a room feel cooler by up to 8 degrees by creating a wind chill factor. Likewise running the fan in reverse can re-distribute the hot air that becomes trapped at the ceiling, making the room feel warmer.
Q. WHICH DIRECTION SHOULD MY CEILING FAN GO FOR WINTER OR SUMMER?
A. Clockwise for winter and counter-clockwise for summer.
Q. WHY SHOULD I CONSIDER A REMOTE CONTROL UNIT?
A. Remote controls are very useful in situations were you have limited access to the fan, ie conservatory ceilings, etc... you are also able to dim the lights on your ceiling fan from the remote controller.
Q: IS THERE ANY ROOM THAT THE FANN ISNT SUITABLE FOR?
The Bathroom is the only domestic room where we do not recommend a fan to be fitted.
