Most fans are designed for ceilings that are between eight and nine feet high, but some people have much lower ceilings. For those with seven-foot ceilings, a "hugger" or flush-mount ceiling fan is the way to go. There are a few hugger fan options from which to choose. - These 52-inch flush-mount fans have a number of different finishes. They feature five blades with an all-white construction, and the WhisperWind motor limits the noise it makes. It also has three speeds and a light fixture.
- Slightly more expensive than the Hunter Low Profile flush-mount model, the Minka Aire Concept offers three white veneer blades with a 44-inch span and a 14-degree tilt. It has three fan speeds, is reversible and has a remote control. The fan features a light fixture that includes a dimmer option.
- The Casablanca Isotope flush-mount ceiling fan offers five 44-inch blades with a 14-degree pitch. It has a remote control that allows you to dim the light fixture and reverse the direction in which the blades are spinning. There are three speed settings.
- The Monte Carlo Micro is a flush-mount ceiling fan with three 24-inch blades that have a 14-degree pitch. The blades have a weather-resistant finish. It offers a three-speed pull chain, and you can add an optional fan light kit or remote control.
- The Emerson Carrera Veranda is an outdoor flush-mount fan that offers five 52-inch blades with pull-chain control. Its optional features include a light fixture and remote control. The blades have a 13-degree pitch.
- The Modern Fan Altus Hugger has three 52-inch blades featuring a brushed-aluminum finish. The outdoor fan has a 12-degree pitch with an option for shorter, 42-inch blades. A remote control or fan light are optional features.
