Product Overview
Enhance interior air circulation with the Ar Ruthiane - 48 Inch Rotational Ceiling Fan, designed for superior airflow management and aesthetic appeal. This fan features a distinctive hourglass support arm design that securely holds bullet-shaped motor housings, enabling each fan head to rotate within a 180-degree arc for precise directional airflow control. Unlike traditional oscillating fans, the Ar Ruthiane’s fan heads pivot, allowing for customized air movement patterns to optimize comfort and efficiency.
Technical Specifications
The fan measures 48 inches in width and 16 inches in height, with a blade pitch of 19 degrees to maximize airflow. It delivers 2,644 cubic feet per minute (CFM) at low speed and up to 4,724 CFM at high speed, ensuring effective air distribution for rooms requiring enhanced ventilation. Constructed from durable cast aluminum and heavy spun and stamped steel, the fan guarantees longevity and structural integrity. The six blades are available in multiple options including metal with decorative guards, solid Brazilian mahogany without guards, or metal blades with safety cages suited for low ceiling installations.
Installation and Compatibility
The Ar Ruthiane fan installs via a stem hanging method, supplied with a standard 10-inch downrod; optional downrods of 5, 20, 30, 48, or 72 inches can be selected and easily field-cut to the desired length. A flat ceiling canopy is included, with an accessory option for 29-degree vaulted ceilings. The fan is equipped with a Decora-style 3-speed wall switch in white for straightforward speed control. Safety cages are available for installations in rooms with ceiling heights as low as 7 feet (U.S.) or 8.2 feet (Canada), enhancing safety without compromising airflow.
Durability and Warranty
Handcrafted by Matthews-Gerbar, this rotational ceiling fan is built to exacting standards rather than mass-produced, featuring genuine marbleized Bakelite motor mounts and fan head knobs for a refined finish. The fan is suitable for damp locations when finished with powder or clear coating but is not recommended for saltwater or oceanfront environments. It carries a limited lifetime warranty, underscoring its robust construction and reliable performance.
