Product Overview
Enhance air circulation with the Ar Ruthiane 6 Blade Ceiling Fan, designed in a contemporary and transitional style. Measuring 12 inches in height and 46 inches in width with a matching 46-inch blade span, this fan offers efficient airflow and a distinctive aesthetic. Its unique hourglass support arms securely hold bullet-shaped motor housings that rotate around a teardrop center, allowing the fan heads to be infinitely positioned within a 180-degree arc to optimize air movement.
Technical Specifications
The fan features six blades with a 31-degree pitch, engineered to deliver exceptional airflow performance. It provides 1,215 cubic feet per minute (CFM) on low speed and up to 2,371 CFM on high speed, ensuring effective circulation for a variety of indoor spaces. Constructed from durable cast aluminum, heavy spun, and stamped steel, the fan is built for longevity and carries a limited lifetime warranty.
Design and Installation Details
The Ar Ruthiane fan is designed for indoor dry locations and is suspended using a stem hanging method. It comes standard with a 10-inch downrod, with optional downrods available in 5", 20", 30", 48", or 72" lengths to accommodate different ceiling heights. These downrods are easily field cut and are not threaded. The flat ceiling canopy is compatible with an optional 29-degree vaulted ceiling canopy accessory, enabling installation on angled ceilings. The fan includes a Decora-style 3-speed wall switch in white for convenient speed control.
Unique Features
Unlike traditional paddle fans, Matthews-Gerbar fans do not oscillate automatically; instead, the fan heads can be manually pivoted to adjust airflow direction. The angle of the motors relative to the horizontal support rods influences the speed of axial rotation, allowing for slow, controlled rotation through a combination of fan head positioning and blade speed. Each fan head knob and motor mount is crafted from genuine marbleized Bakelite, adding an artisanal touch to the design. Multiple blade options are available, including metal blades with decorative metal guards, solid ecologically harvested Brazilian mahogany blades without guards, and metal blades with safety cages suitable for low ceiling applications (minimum 7 ft ceiling height in the US).
