Installation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Both ceiling fan and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/desk-fan-heres-everything-you-need-to-know\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"4039\">desk fan <\/a>are true to their name, the ceiling fan is the type of fan that is mounted on the ceiling. With that being said, the ceiling fan requires professional installation to install it safely and properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, desk fans are portable and do not require special installation at all, you can simply put it on your desk, plug it to the socket and enjoy the cool breeze.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Coverage_Area\"><\/span>2. Coverage Area<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The ceiling fan wins in this area, ceiling fan\u2019s breeze will circulate around the room where it&#8217;s installed, thus providing better air circulation and will cool off your entire room temperature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But, if you\u2019re aiming to cool off your skin directly, the portable desk fan might be your best choice. Desk fans offer localized cooling, that\u2019s why desk fans are more suitable for more specific areas or personal use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Height_Requirement\"><\/span>3. Height Requirement<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To gain maximum results with the ceiling fan, you have to think about and measure the ceiling height of the room that is designated to be installed with a ceiling fan. Generally, ceiling fans works best in a room with a higher ceiling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, if your room has a standard or even lower ceiling, it is best to stick with the old and reliable desk fans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Portability\"><\/span>4. Portability<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Ceiling fans are fixed and cannot be moved around like desk fans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Size\"><\/span>5. Size<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Ceiling fans are significantly larger than a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/desk-fan-heres-everything-you-need-to-know\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"4039\">desk fan<\/a>. But, because they\u2019re installed on the ceiling you might not worry too much about the space that they took.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, the desk fans are compact and can be moved around to your heart&#8217;s desire, however, for those of you who have limited ground space, it can be a little bit of a problem finding their places.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Airflow_Direction\"><\/span>6. Airflow Direction<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Most of the ceiling fans\u2019 airflow direction is downward, but some of them are also capable of blowing a multi-directional breeze throughout the room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The desk fans are quite different, they most commonly equipped with oscillating features up to 90 degrees to adjust the airflow direction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Additional_Features\"><\/span>7. Additional Features<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The ceiling fans are winning this. A lot of ceiling fans are integrated with other additional features like lighting or even voice assistance, while the desk fans are just plain conventional fans with simple features like speed settings and oscillation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_Maintenance\"><\/span>8. Maintenance<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Due to their height, cleaning or fixing a ceiling fan might be a little bit of a hustle. This is different to desk fans that can be cleaned or fixed easily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9_Cost\"><\/span>9. Cost<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Desk fans are way cheaper than ceiling fans especially if we\u2019re talking about initial cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, because it requires a professional technician to install, ceiling fans have a more expensive initial cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"10_Safety\"><\/span>10. Safety<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Ceiling fans are winning this again due to their hard-to-reach nature. You don\u2019t need to worry about pets or children having an accident because of the ceiling fans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The desk fans on the other hand, although are generally safe, have a few risks due to moving parts being easily accessible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So there you have it! The difference between desk fans and ceiling fans that we\u2019ve carefully summarized just for you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Maybe you\u2019re one of those people kinda hesitant about choosing whether they need a desk<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":4049,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[214],"tags":[241,149,8],"class_list":["post-4048","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-fan","tag-fan","tag-fans","tag-sni"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4048","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4048"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4048\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4049"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4048"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4048"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dimulti.id\/SNI\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4048"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
