A 48-inch wet-rated ceiling fan from Matthews Fans, built for fully exposed outdoor areas like open decks, pergolas, and gazebos, with a textured bronze motor housing and light yellow ABS blades.
The Alessandra Tropical pairs a minimal tropical silhouette with serious durability. Its cast aluminum and heavy stamped steel construction shrugs off weather, while the ABS blades resist moisture and keep their color. The 16-degree blade pitch and DC motor deliver efficient, silent airflow, and the included remote makes it easy to adjust from across the room.
Best for
- Covered patios, open decks, pergolas, and gazebos where wet conditions are a concern
- Large bedrooms, dining rooms, or standard living rooms (144-225 sq. ft.)
- Homes with sloped ceilings up to 30 degrees (optional 60-degree kit available)
- Anyone wanting a customizable fan with 5 body finishes and 10 blade options
Not ideal for
- Small rooms under 144 sq. ft. where a 48-inch blade span may feel overpowering
- Indoor-only spaces if you don't need wet-rated durability (you may pay extra for features you won't use)
How bright is it?
This fan does not include a light kit, so brightness is not applicable. It's designed for airflow, not illumination.
Light color and feel
No light kit included, so there's no light color or feel to consider. Focus on the fan's airflow and style.

The fan measures 48 inches in diameter with an 8-inch overall height. It includes a 10-inch downrod, and additional downrod lengths are available separately. The canopy is 6 inches in diameter. Ideal for rooms with ceilings at least 8 feet high.
