Practically since I got this Caribbean Breeze from Sean, I've wanted to try this. Whatever my excuse was not to do it, it just never happened until now. Hangs a bit low for a metal blader (it is on a shorter downrod than the original), but I can still stand under it with plenty of room and there's rarely anyone at that back end anyways. Just thought it'd look kinda cool and might come in handy if clothes on the rack need a little help to dry faster. Plus it doesn't hurt to have another fan in use, that's one storage spot open for another fan! Please excuse the clutter and stuff, this is our next room to tackle cleaning out. No, it doesn't hit the ductwork. Left plenty of room there.  Here it is in better context with the room. On the right are cabinets with huge doors, thus why it's positioned so far to the left.  Control, still plan on tacking the wire down but it's good for now.  |

Not bad, looks like a professional laundromat in there, even more with that fan (:

It looks perfect there and it's the prefect fan for this type of room. It's the kind of fan we imagine seeing in a laundry room, laundromat or kitchen.
How did you hung it? Was there any fixture there before?

Yes it's really perfect, and I love the Caribbean Breeze model so much I'm really happy to have one up again, probably for a good while considering I don't really have any other good options for this install.
Just screwed a hook into the joist above the drywall, as was the original intent of the Caribbean Breeze's rather "portable" design. Then all I had to do was run the swag wire up between the ductwork with a few pieces of tape and mount the control with a couple screws and it was done. No fixture there before.

Awesome install! That is just the right fan for a laundry room.

It's just made of win.
I only wish the wire was brown where it attaches to the wood paneling.

Brown wire, and even a brown control certainly would've been nice there. I could splice in a piece of brown wire behind that ductwork, but that'd mean running it behind the dryer vent again which was a PITA the first time lol.

Love the tiny fan, way off in a corner. That look always hooks me.

I do agree that it gives off the laundromat type atmosphere.
