Is a 48-inch fan too small for a living room?

Not necessarily. A 48 inch ceiling fan is an excellent choice for small to medium-sized living rooms, especially those between 144–225 square feet. For larger living spaces, you may want to explore bigger blade spans.

How do I choose between a 48-inch and 52-inch ceiling fan?
