A 16-inch directional ceiling fan from Matthews Fans, designed for small spaces and covered outdoor areas, finished in black nickel with solid mahogany wood blades.
The Bianca Directional ceiling fan offers a unique and versatile design, with a fan head that can be infinitely positioned in a 180-degree arc, forward and reverse, to provide maximum directional airflow. Ideal for small, awkward spaces or in front of HVAC ducts, this fan improves heating, ventilation, and air conditioning efficiency. Crafted from cast aluminum, heavy spun/stamped steel, and genuine marbleized Bakelite, it is built to last and carries a limited lifetime warranty.
Best for
- Covered patios, porches, and sunrooms where moisture resistance is needed
- Bathrooms without direct water exposure, such as powder rooms or half baths
- Small rooms or awkward spaces where a traditional ceiling fan won't fit
- Positioning in front of HVAC ducts to improve air circulation efficiency
- Contemporary or transitional interiors that value high design and functionality
Not ideal for
- Large rooms over 150 square feet, as the 16-inch blade span is designed for small spaces
- Vaulted ceilings, as the flat canopy is not compatible with vaulted ceiling canopies
- Coastal, saltwater, or chlorine environments, as this fan is not recommended for those locations
How bright is it?
This ceiling fan does not include a light kit, so brightness is not applicable. It is designed for airflow, not illumination.
Light color and feel
No light source is included, so there is no color temperature or CRI to consider. The fan operates quietly, providing a soothing white-noise effect.
Sizing and fit
The fan measures 16 inches in width and height, with an adjustable height range of 21 to 88 inches using the included 10-inch downrod. The canopy is 5.5 inches in diameter and 2.5 inches high. It is suitable for rooms with standard ceiling heights, and safety cages are available for low-ceiling applications (sold separately).
