Yes, but I don't have a dimming ceiling fan so I'm not sure on the answer if u have one of those.

Yes, they should work well in a ceiling fan fixture. I will offer this bit of information. They are very bright! If your ceiling fan has a glass diffuser so the bulbs are not seen directly, they will work very well. If the bulbs are exposed and can been seen, they may create considerable glare. I don't know if they offer the bulb in a frosted glass.

I believe the ONLY application for these Feit bulbs is indoors - if your in a cold temperature climate (Minneapolis) the heat generated by the bulbs caused the glass to break in cold ambient temperatures.The only other trouble I have had with these have been DOA (1 time) and intermittent light (1 time). I have probably purchased 20 of these and the failure rate is much too high in my opinion.I have NOT had similar problems with other brands/manufacturers. Good Luck..!

Hi Christopher, I rarely write a review for any product but felt compelled to write one for this particular fan. I installed it in my master bedroom and while I love the look of the fan...........I cannot recommend this fan for function. My fan is mounted directly over my bed and at full speed I really can't feel much air flow. At lower speeds it make enough clicking and other noises it will keep me awake. When I am finished with my current home remodels I will be replacing this fan ASAP. Sorry for the bad report.

I actually installed mine in a can light opening, using a can to fan converter kit also sold on Amazon. The fan has been up for over a year now with no problems or wobbling, so it is pretty stable. Mounting to the electric box in your ceiling (which are usually fixed to a ceiling strut) should be fine, at least in my opinion.

I think it would be a bit loud for being that close to recliners where you're obviously trying to relax. Unless, of course, you want major air. The solution I came up with for the TV room is this fan:http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000RMJANY/ref=mp_s_a_1_6?qid=1382477133&sr;=8-6π=AC_SX110_SY165_QL70Pretty darn quiet, works great, and the remote is actually useful. I liked it so much, I got a second one for the bedroom. Hope this helps.

Maybe consider a .5 sone bath fan Air King BFQ50 ENERGY STAR® Qualified SNAP-IN Exhaust Fan, 50 CFM

Unfortunately the Tristar ceiling fan is only suitable for indoor use as it has venting on top of the motor housing.Thank you,Michael H.Dan's Fan City

Absolutely. The fan hangs from the ceiling support. This is not a flush mount fan.

This is not a good fan for a maximum light source. You will need to look elsewhere. It is a really good looking modern fan with limited CFM airflow and medium lighting.

What type of ceiling are you trying to circulate air through? Are you pulling air into an attic? If it is a acoustical type ceiling. I would suggest an lay in vent with the fan mounted in an outside wall above the ceiling. I don't think the fan was design for that application, it does blow pretty hard. Try calling Fantech, they might say other wise.

Not bad at all. It uses a larger, slower fan to move the air (can kind of see the cut-outs for it on the right side of the unit in the picture). We use it in the garage to drive a noisy high-speed spindle, though, so noise hasn't been a concern for us.

I have 12' ceilings in my garage, and i only use the light on the fan when I'm watching tv. I use fluorescent lighting while I'm working.

No I wouldn't recommend that at all unless you can figure out a mounting method. The stand is really my only complaint - it's really cheap. I also bought a set of bulbs that do the same thing and put them in my ceiling fan. That worked awesome! Might be a solution to your needs. Light is good, stand sucks! :)

Probably couldn't hurt if you have the room, I thought about doing the same. The fan is decent for what it is, but doesn't push all that much air. You could wire both fans to operate on the same switch. I have noticed that the fan does help the performance of the unit in hot temps. Good luck dude.

This is a large fan, better suited for a high ceiling. I wouldn't use it with an 8 ft ceiling.

4 elements. We have an older house with lower ceilings, and one keeps our living room comfortable, and not at all noisy. Yes, there is a fan but I don't think it's any louder than my central heating fan. In a bigger space I would buy one bigger unit than use up 2 smaller units more quickly.

Sure, but you might want to put a speed control on ..it pulls a lot of air..might be a little noisy too unless you mount it above the ceiling
