Looking for a corrosion resistant outdoor ceiling fan 52'".

Install is on an ocean front deck, subject to spray from salt water.....

I do not think you will find one .

I have seen many of the " Old Heavy Metal , rebuildable , Humphrey Bogart Casablanca ceiling fans " , used in Marine Loco's . these seemed to last quite a long time .

Sell them regular outdoor fans and an agreed price plus CPI for new fans every couple few years. I haven't found a paddle fan that holds up in cow barns and wash down areas of food prep areas, much less salt air. I don't think there is one.

 

Install one of these puppies and install the motor inside an enclosure of sorts to protect from the elements.

 

Sealed, explosion-proof.

 

is that available? in a ceiling fan. and what about the enclosure around it?

 

There, you got me. My intention there was to say that it is possible that they are out there.

Macmikeman might have some experience here.

Great find . This Emerson Outdoor fan has a 72 hour salt water corrosion test ... whatever that is .

It looks like the " Old Humphrey Bogart Casablanca Fans " ! They are Rebuildable and were a rare find . I saved every one I came across on Renos and Demos , in the Islands .
