A 48-inch damp-rated ceiling fan from Fanimation's Spitfire collection, finished in matte white with dark walnut blades, for covered patios, sunrooms, and large indoor living spaces.
The Spitfire pairs a sleek three-blade silhouette with a matte white motor housing and dark walnut buttonwood blades, giving it a modern, architectural look that suits both contemporary interiors and covered outdoor areas. Its damp rating means it can handle humidity and moisture, making it a versatile choice for spaces like porches, sunrooms, and bathrooms. With a reversible motor and included remote, it delivers year-round comfort and convenience.
Best for
- Covered patios and porches, where the damp rating protects against humidity and moisture
- Sunrooms and three-season rooms that need reliable airflow without direct rain exposure
- Large bedrooms and living rooms (up to 18x20 ft) as a primary cooling fan
- Bathrooms and laundry rooms with high humidity, thanks to its damp-rated construction
- Homes with sloped ceilings up to 19°, using the included 4.5-inch downrod
Not ideal for
- Outdoor areas directly exposed to rain or water spray, as it is damp-rated, not wet-rated
- Rooms with ceilings under 8 ft if you need a hanging installation; consider the flush-mount version instead
- Small spaces under 10x10 ft where a 48-inch sweep may feel oversized
How bright is it?
This fan does not include a light kit, so brightness depends on your room's existing lighting. It is compatible with an optional 18-watt LED light kit (sold separately) that provides 1500 lumens—about as bright as a 100W incandescent bulb—suitable for ambient lighting in medium-sized rooms.
Light color and feel
If you add the optional LED light kit, it emits 3000K warm white light—a soft, golden tone similar to traditional incandescent bulbs. With a CRI of 90, it renders colors accurately, making it a good choice for living areas and kitchens. The light is dimmable when used with the included remote or compatible smart controls.
Sizing and fit
This 48-inch fan has an overall height of 12 inches from ceiling to bottom (without light kit) and comes with a 4.5-inch downrod. It fits flat or sloped ceilings up to 19°. For optimal airflow, the fan should hang 7–9 feet above the floor; optional downrods up to 72 inches are available for taller ceilings.
