An outdoor ceiling fan is one that is rated for outdoor use. The “outdoor” rating comes from Underwriter’s Laboratories (UL). Ceiling fans are either UL Listed as “damp location” rated or “wet location” rated. Besides the UL Listing for the ceiling fans, there are also different blade types and motor finishes to consider.
