Fanco Ceiling Fans Buying Guide


Fanco is an Australian-owned and designed brand of ceiling fans, known for quiet, efficient DC motor fans in modern and natural styles. This collection covers the Fanco ranges, including Eco Silent Pro, Horizon, Infinity-iD, Eco Style, Sanctuary, Wynd, EarthFirst Gaia and EarthFirst Wynd, plus the AC Breeze. It suits bedrooms, living areas and undercover outdoor spaces.

Which Fanco ceiling fan range should I choose?

The ranges differ mainly in blade material, size and where they can be used.

  • Eco Silent Pro: 48, 52 and 56 inch, ABS blades, quiet DC motor, suited to indoor, undercover outdoor and coastal use.
  • Horizon High Airflow: 52 and 64 inch, three ABS blades, high airflow on low power, with an optional wall control.
  • Infinity-iD: 48 and 54 inch DC fans, with or without a light.
  • Eco Style: 52 and 60 inch, a sleek design for indoor rooms.
  • Sanctuary: 52 inch with solid timber blades in Natural, Teak or Whitewash, with or without a light.
  • Wynd and EarthFirst Wynd: timber-blade fans from 52 to 60 inch.
  • EarthFirst Gaia: 48 and 54 inch, FSC-certified timber blades and a bio-based housing.
  • Breeze: a 52 inch AC fan with three speeds.

Should I choose a DC or AC ceiling fan?

For most homes, a DC fan is the better pick. DC motors use much less electricity, run more quietly and offer more speeds, usually six, plus a remote and often a timer. The AC Breeze has three speeds and suits buyers who want a simple, traditional fan. Most Fanco fans are DC.

What size Fanco fan do I need?

Match the span to the room. A 48 inch fan suits a small bedroom or study, and 52 inch is the standard size for most bedrooms and living rooms. Fans of 54 to 64 inch suit larger living areas. For a long or very large space, two fans often work better than one oversized fan.

Are timber blade fans suitable for every room?

Solid timber blades, as on the Sanctuary, Wynd and EarthFirst ranges, bring natural warmth but are made for indoor rooms with steady humidity. Timber can swell or warp with moisture, so keep these fans out of bathrooms and outdoor areas. For a patio or coastal home, choose a fan with ABS blades rated for undercover outdoor use, such as the Eco Silent Pro or Horizon.

Will a Fanco fan suit my ceiling?

Fan blades should sit at least 2.1m above the floor, so check the fan's height against your ceiling. Most Fanco ranges can be fitted to a sloped ceiling of up to about 15 degrees, while the EarthFirst ranges are for flat ceilings only. For a low ceiling, choose a low-profile design.

Should I choose a fan with a light?

Choose a light model if the fan will light the room. Many Fanco lights let you switch between warm, neutral and cool white. Warm white suits bedrooms and living rooms. If the room already has downlights, a fan without a light avoids flicker as the blades pass.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I choose a DC or AC motor ceiling fan?

This choice comes down to what you value most: upfront cost or long-term efficiency. AC motor fans are the traditional, more affordable option and remain reliable workhorses. DC motor fans, by contrast, use up to 70% less energy, run quieter, and offer finer speed control, an investment that tends to reward those who value comfort and lower running costs over the years ahead.

What size ceiling fan do I need for my room?

The right fan size is determined by the dimensions of the room, not personal preference alone. As a general guide, rooms up to 12m² suit a blade span of 900–1200mm, rooms up to 20m² call for 1200–1400mm, and larger open-plan living areas often benefit from 1400mm or above. Ceiling height also plays its part, for ceilings under 2.4m, a low-profile or hugger-style fan is the wiser choice to maintain safe clearance while still delivering effective airflow.

Should my ceiling fan spin clockwise or anticlockwise?

There is wisdom in the seasons here. In summer, fans should rotate anticlockwise (when viewed from below) to push air straight down, creating a cooling breeze. In winter, reversing the fan to spin clockwise draws warm air that naturally rises back down into the room, helping redistribute heat more evenly.

Are outdoor ceiling fans different from indoor ones?

They are, and the distinction matters. Outdoor fans are built to endure the elements, rated as either "damp" (suitable for covered, sheltered areas like alfresco spaces) or "wet" (able to withstand direct rain and moisture). Installing an indoor-rated fan outdoors risks premature wear and safety issues, so it's worth confirming the rating aligns with where the fan will ultimately live.
