Matthews Fans Vent-Bettina 44in Rotational Ceiling Fan | Contemporary Rubi and Mahogany | Living Room & Covered Patio | Model VB-RED-WD

A 44-inch rotational ceiling fan from Matthews Fans, designed for contemporary transitional spaces, with Rubi motor housing and solid mahogany wood blades.

The Vent-Bettina rotational ceiling fan is thoughtfully designed with its arms gently upward curving. The fan offers fluid lines and quiet axial rotation. The fan heads can be infinitely positioned in 180-degree arcs for optimum air movement; the greater the angles of the motors to the horizontal support rods (up or down), the faster the axial rotation. A slow, controlled axial rotation is achieved by both fan head position and fan blade speed.

Best for

• Living rooms and great rooms up to 450 sq ft, providing efficient air circulation without the visual bulk of a traditional paddle fan
• Covered patios and porches, rated for damp locations, adding a sculptural element to outdoor living spaces
• Bedrooms and home offices where quiet operation and a gentle breeze are desired
• Contemporary and transitional interiors that value design-forward fixtures
• Spaces with low ceilings, using the included 10-inch downrod or field-cutting it for a closer mount

Not ideal for

• Coastal, saltwater, or chlorine environments - the manufacturer does not recommend this fan for those locations
• Bathrooms with direct water exposure - while damp-rated, it is not wet-rated for shower stalls
• Small rooms under 100 sq ft where a 44-inch fan may feel oversized

How bright is it?

This fan does not include a light kit, so brightness is not applicable. It is designed for air movement, not illumination.

Light color and feel

No light source is included or available for this model. The fan's visual impact comes from its sculptural form and the contrast between Rubi metal and mahogany wood.

Sizing and fit

Overall dimensions are 44 inches wide by 7 inches high. The canopy is 5.5 inches in diameter and 2.5 inches high. The included 10-inch downrod can be field-cut for lower ceilings, and a 29-degree vaulted ceiling canopy is available separately for sloped ceilings. The height range is 12 to 79 inches.
