A 48-inch wet-rated ceiling fan from Matthews Fans for covered outdoor areas and large indoor rooms, finished in matte white.
The Alessandra Tropical brings a minimal tropical form to spaces that need efficient, weather-resistant airflow. Its cast aluminum and heavy stamped steel construction is built to withstand the elements, while the ABS all-weather blades resist moisture and warping. The matte white motor housing and blades create a clean, cohesive look that suits transitional interiors and outdoor living spaces. Controlled by a convenient remote, this fan offers six speeds and silent operation for cooling without noise.
Best for
- Covered patios, pergolas, and gazebos where wet-rated durability is essential
- Large bedrooms, dining rooms, or standard living rooms (144-225 sq. ft.)
- Spaces with sloped ceilings up to 30 degrees, with optional 60-degree cathedral ceiling mount available
- Anyone seeking a quiet, energy-efficient DC motor fan with reversible airflow for year-round comfort
Not ideal for
- Small rooms under 144 sq. ft. where a 48-inch blade span may be overpowering
- Indoor-only installations if you prefer a fan with an integrated light kit (this model does not include one)
How bright is it?
This fan does not include a light kit, so brightness is not applicable. It is designed for airflow and cooling, not illumination.
Light color and feel
No light kit included, so there is no light color or color temperature to consider.
