Capitol-wise Fan-buying Tips…
-
Size Matters: For maximum efficiency choose 50- to 56-inch ceiling fans for rooms up to 225 square feet and larger; 36-to 44-inch fans for medium sized rooms up to 144 square feet; and 29-to 32-inch fans for smaller rooms up to 75 square feet.
-
Get the Height Right: Install ceiling fans higher than 7 feet above the floor in the center of the room for maximum comfort, safety and aesthetics. Optimal placement would be either 8 or 9 feet above the floor.
-
Blades of Satisfaction: Fan blades determine the amount of air being circulated throughout the room. The ceiling fan blade brackets should be positioned to hold the blade at a 12-15 degree angle and be weighted and matched as a balanced set to avoid having your fan wobble. The greater the angle of the blade, the more air circulation. A ceiling fan with less than a 12 degree angle will not circulate air as well and be less efficient. Blades should be composed of wood or acrylic and be sealed and treated to resist humidity.
-
Know your Motor: The heart of every ceiling fan is the motor. The motor is responsible for producing quiet operation while driving the blades for air movement. Look for high-quality motors with heavy-duty windings and sealed bearings that are permanently lubricated. Top quality motors are designed to work flawlessly for long periods of time and some are guaranteed to last for the life-time of your fan.
-
A Strong Finish: A high quality finish will resist against blistering, tarnishing, fading and corrosion. Less advanced finishes on fan blades may peel, bubble and corrode quickly.
-
Be Wary of Warranties: Buy from reputable dealers who stand behind the quality of their merchandise. Fan motors and parts should be guaranteed for at least three years. Top quality fan motors may include a lifetime warranty.
-
Light it Up: Choose light kits to complement room décor and add the finishing touch. Capitol Lighting offers a vast selection of lighting and fan light fixtures. Opal, marble, crystal, painted glass and hand blown glass may be added to a fitter or fixture shade for a unique, stylized design.
-
Invest in Quality Control: Portable hand-held controls or sophisticated wall control systems provide excellent versatility and convenience. Control systems may offer up to six fan speeds (in either the forward or reverse direction) and full range light dimming for the highest degree of comfort and ambience.

Fun Fact: The "Silver Tsunami" refers to the nation's 78 million baby boomers approaching retirement age this year. This rapidly growing segment of the population composed of individuals 65 years and older, is expected to double between 2010 and 2050. According to the AARP, about 8000 people a day are now turning 65 in the US.*
These new elderly are living active healthy lifestyles and choosing to age gracefully in their own homes. The lighting industry has been actively redefining lighting design and embarking on technologically improved illumination to make it all possible.
Residential lamps and lighting products designed especially for older eyes are available in store and on line from Capitol Lighting. Shower the people you love with light:
- Elderly eyes are more prone to eye-strain and greatly affected by glare. Employ portable lamps and lighting while watching TV to mitigate the contrast that occurs between the bright screen and the surrounding darkness of the room.
- Use table lamps or torch lamps to provide uplight as well as downlight for soft, evenly distributed illumination.
- Look for lamps with separate and adjustable lights attached to facilitate tasks such as sewing and reading.
- Upgrade to better quality bulbs. Ideally, full-spectrum illumination will help diminish eye fatigue, boost ones energy and promote a sense of well-being. For older eyes, lighting professionals recommend using CFLs and LEDs with warm tones. Check the bulb package for a color temperature of 2700-3000K (Kelvin's). Also look for a CRI (color rendering index) of 80 or more.
- There is no magic one-size-fits-all light-- because individual vision varies greatly; use dimmers to adjust lamps and lighting accordingly.
- To further control glare, choose fixtures that are properly shielded.
- For the utmost in convenience, safety and security, invest in automated timers, touch controls and hand-held controls. Ceiling fan kits, ceiling fixtures and portable lamps may be easily adapted for use with remote controls and automated timers.
