Three broad wood-tone blades sweep 100 cm around a matte black drum, and a round opal LED sits in the base of it. The motor is a six speed DC, the light switches between three whites, and both run from the remote control supplied.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe motor turns both ways, so the same fan earns its place all year. Forward in summer, the blades push air down and that moving air feels several degrees cooler. Reversed in winter, they lift air up so the warm air that collects at ceiling level comes back down the walls instead of sitting above head height. One button on the remote switches between the two.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRemote control included:\u003c\/strong\u003e light on and off, the three light colours, six fan speeds, a natural wind mode, the summer\/winter reverse and a 1, 2 or 4 hour timer, all without leaving the sofa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLow profile at 20 cm:\u003c\/strong\u003e no drop rod at all, which is the shallowest drop of any three blade fan in the range — made for a standard 2.4 to 2.6 m ceiling, where a rod-mounted fan hangs too far into the room\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReversible six speed DC motor:\u003c\/strong\u003e one or two for sleeping and reading, three or four for everyday, five or six for a hot afternoon, and reverse for winter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThree light colours in one fitting:\u003c\/strong\u003e a built-in 15 W LED that steps between 3000 K warm, 4000 K natural and 6000 K cool white from the remote\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe LED is a standard swap-in module:\u003c\/strong\u003e a 135 mm panel that unclips, so the light can be replaced on its own years later instead of replacing the fan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMatte black drum with warm wood-tone blades:\u003c\/strong\u003e a two-tone finish that reads as a light fitting from the floor rather than as a fan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMemory:\u003c\/strong\u003e the fan comes back on at the last speed and light colour used\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSizes and options\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e one sweep, 42 inch, which the manufacturer's dimension drawing gives as \u003cstrong\u003e100 cm\u003c\/strong\u003e across the three blades. One finish: a matte black housing and canopy, 15 cm across, with three wood-grain blades in a warm oak tone and a white opal light disc underneath.

It is the fan for the room with a low ceiling and no room to spare: at 20 cm it clears a 2.4 to 2.6 m ceiling where a fan on a rod would sit in the sightline. A wide open-plan room wants a larger sweep instead; a 100 cm blade span is for a single room, not for a whole floor. Indoor dry areas only.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlade sweep\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100 cm (42 inch), three blades\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTotal drop\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20 cm from the ceiling to the base of the light.

The hanger bracket is fixed to the ceiling first — the manufacturer asks for a fixing that will hold at least 45 kg — the receiver is seated in it, the motor is hung and wired, the shell is turned on and clamped to the bracket, and only then are the three blades bolted on and the LED module and cover fitted. \u003cstrong\u003eDo not run the motor before all three blades are fitted\u003c\/strong\u003e, and fit the blade screws loosely at first, tightening them once all three are in place. Leave at least 2.3 m between the floor and the blades and 45 cm between the blades and the nearest wall. The manufacturer also states that the fan must not be run from a wall-mounted solid-state fan speed controller or dimmer; speed is set from the remote.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCare\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSwitch the fan off at the wall before cleaning. Wipe the blades, the drum and the light diffuser with a dry or barely damp soft cloth. The manufacturer states that water and detergents should not be used on the fan. Check the blade screws are tight once a year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eQuick answers\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill the Tri Colour LED DC Ceiling Fan with Light fit a 2.4 m ceiling?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is built for exactly that ceiling. The fitting hangs 20 cm below the plaster, so on a 2.4 m ceiling the light finishes about 2.2 m above the floor and the blades sit a little higher. The manufacturer's own sheet asks for 2.3 m of clearance under the blades, which a 2.5 m ceiling meets with room to spare; on a 2.4 m ceiling the installing electrician should confirm the spot before fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat size room does it suit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer rates it for 15 to 25 m². One buyer with an 18 m² room reported that speed 1 of 6 was enough, which gives an idea of how much is held in reserve for a hot afternoon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan the light be dimmed?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The remote steps the light between 3000 K warm, 4000 K natural and 6000 K cool white, but brightness is fixed. The manufacturer lists the fan as not dimmable, and it must not be wired to a wall dimmer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the winter mode work?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe R button on the remote reverses the motor. Running forward in summer the blades push air down as a draught. Reversed in winter they draw air up and push the warm air gathered at ceiling level back down the walls, which spreads the heat around the room without a draught.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat happens when the LED stops working?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe light is a standard 135 mm, 15 W LED module that unclips from the base of the drum, so it is replaced on its own rather than scrapping the fan. There are no exposed globes to change in normal use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat are the blades made of?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree ABS blades with a wood-grain finish in a warm oak tone, on a painted iron housing. The manufacturer does not list solid timber, so the blades are described by their finish rather than their material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow is the fan controlled?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the remote control in the box. It carries all off, light on and off, forward, reverse, natural wind, a dial of six speeds with fan off in the middle, and a 1, 2 or 4 hour timer. The seller confirms there is no phone app for this fan. Batteries for the remote are not included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes it need an electrician?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. It is a hardwired ceiling fan and must be installed by a licensed electrician. The motor must never be run before the blades are fitted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan it be used outside?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The manufacturer does not state an IP rating and the installation manual marks the fan as indoor use only, so it should not go on a verandah, in an open carport or anywhere it can be reached by rain or spray.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"LumePorch","offers":[{"title":"42 inch (100 cm) \/ Remote Control","offer_id":67944884142400,"sku":"LP-FAN018-100","price":374.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/6252\/7808\/files\/download_12.jpg?v=1794176947","url":"https:\/\/lumeporch.com\/products\/tri-colour-led-dc-ceiling-fan-with-light","provider":"LumePorch","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
