Fans

Shop Affordable Fans

Our fans collection covers two distinct product types: ceiling fans for permanent installation and bladeless fan cooler units that can also function as heaters. Whether you are after cheap fans for a bedroom, living room, or outdoor alfresco area, the range includes DC and AC motor ceiling fans with LED lighting, remote controls, and timer functions alongside compact bladeless units suited to smaller rooms and year-round use. Browse our heating, cooling and air quality collection for the broader range of home climate products, or explore our heaters range if you need standalone heating alongside a fan. Comparing cheap fans by type, size, and features is the most practical starting point, and all orders come with fast delivery and a 12-month warranty.

Ceiling fans versus bladeless fan coolers: the two main types in this range

The products in this range split into two categories with different installation requirements and use cases. Ceiling fans are hardwired fixtures mounted to the ceiling that circulate air efficiently across a room without taking up floor or bench space, but they require professional electrical installation. For those also managing indoor air quality alongside temperature, our humidifiers collection is worth exploring, and the broader appliances hub covers the full range of home appliances for comparison. Bladeless fan coolers are plug-in units that sit on a surface or stand, require no installation, and can be repositioned between rooms as needed. Some bladeless models in this range also function as heaters, making them a practical year-round option for rooms where a ceiling fan alone would not address the cooler months.

Ceiling fan sizes, blade counts, and motor types: what to check before ordering

Most ceiling fans in this range are 52 inches in blade span (1300mm), with a 64-inch model and a 48-inch option also visible for different room sizes and ceiling heights. For those also managing outdoor entertaining spaces alongside indoor cooling, our patio heaters and outdoor heating collections are worth exploring at the same time. Matching the fan blade span to your room size before ordering is important, as a fan that is too small will not circulate air effectively across the full area. The range includes both AC motor and DC motor models. DC motors generally operate more quietly and draw less power than AC alternatives, which makes them a better long-term choice for rooms where the fan runs frequently, such as bedrooms, open-plan living rooms, and home offices.

Bladeless fan heaters and year-round home comfort

The bladeless fan coolers in this range serve a dual purpose, functioning as a fan for warmer months and a heater for cooler periods, making them a practical all-year appliance for rooms where temperature management is needed in both directions. For those also managing indoor heating and outdoor warmth, our fireplaces and BBQs, firepits and heating collections are worth exploring for complementary seasonal heating options. Bladeless designs differ from standard ceiling fans by producing no heat, which means ceiling fans suit summer cooling specifically while bladeless units with a heater mode extend their usefulness throughout the year. If low noise during overnight operation is a priority, checking the product listing for noise and decibel information is a sensible step before buying.

LED lighting, remote controls, and timer features: what adds practical value

A substantial number of ceiling fans in this range include integrated LED lighting, combining an overhead fan and light in a single fixture without the need for separate wiring. Blade finishes range from classic black and white through to walnut, dark wood, and natural timber tones, meaning the fan contributes to the room's aesthetic as much as its function. For those managing a complete home environment, our steam cleaners and vacuum cleaners collections help maintain clean floors and surfaces in rooms where fans circulate air and dust regularly. Remote controls allow you to adjust fan speed and light settings without getting up, which is particularly useful for ceiling fans installed out of arm's reach. Timer functions, available on several models, let you set the fan to turn off automatically after a defined period rather than leaving it running overnight.

Which fan type suits your space best, a ceiling fan with light or a bladeless tower fan cooler?

A ceiling fan with a light suits rooms where you want airflow and overhead lighting in one fitting, and the range includes options with remote control and LED lights. A bladeless tower fan cooler is better if you want a portable fan you can move between rooms. Choose based on whether you want a fixed ceiling solution or flexible, plug-in cooling.

What fan size and airflow should you choose to match the room you are cooling?

Start with your room size and ceiling height, then match that to the fan’s blade span and motor type. Larger rooms usually suit bigger ceiling fans, such as 52-inch models, to move air more effectively. For smaller spaces, a compact ceiling fan or a tower fan can be enough. Check the product details for airflow and recommended room coverage.

Which features are worth prioritising, such as remote control, timer settings, and adjustable speeds?

Prioritise the features you will actually use day to day. Remote control is handy for bedrooms and living rooms, while multiple speed settings help you fine-tune comfort as the temperature changes. If you like a set-and-forget setup, a timer can be useful overnight. For ceiling fans, LED light options and DC motor models can be worth comparing for overall convenience.

What matters most for everyday comfort, including noise levels, oscillation, and energy efficiency?

For comfort, look for a fan that is quiet enough for sleep or work, with smooth speed changes and steady airflow. Tower fans often suit spot cooling and can be easier to position, while ceiling fans provide broader circulation. If you will run it for long periods, energy efficiency matters. For ceiling fans, plan for installation by a licensed electrician, and our partnership with Airtasker makes it easy to find one if needed.
