Minka aire.
Comes in 65”, 84”, or 96”. I have the 65. It rocks and rolls. Also, very quiet.

BAF
About to find out how much air it moves. Website has a lot of info. I’d check some out in person at some local lighting/fan stores.

I would advise against getting an outdoor fan that has blades made of any particle board wood...solid wood, metal preferable. Bought a house where previous owners had fan with particle board blades and heat/humidity cause those blades to droop like a wilted flower.

Hampton Bay 60" Great Room Industrial Ceiling Fan
Several of my Friends and I switched to this model. Blows you away and holds up great.

Only way to go is a hunter original... will cost you $500 but will outlast you at house and moves air better then anything available

Craftmade windswept 78”
Friend has this for his 15x30 patio and said it moves tons of air. I bought it for mine but am not that far along in the build yet for it.

If you put more than one on the same switch you will need to buy a higher amp speed switch than the one that comes with it. If you hook it up to a regular on off switch you will only get high speed.

I just ordered this 65" fan with a 2' downrod. Looking forward to a cooler Summer.

I just installed the 65" Minka-Aire Xtreme H2O fan with a 2 foot downrod on my back porch. My prior fan was a 48" Hunter fan with a 3 foot downrod. The difference is significant. The Minka-Aire looks great, is quiet, and actually produces a nice breeze! So far this fan is a winner!

Whatever you buy, just make sure it's outdoor rated and can take the heat and humidity without the blades looking like a fu-man-chu mustache in 6 months.

I just installed 2 of those 60” Hampton Bays yesterday. They move a lot of air. I had to drive to Gretna from BR to pick a couple up as they are out of stock online now.

+1 for BAF. We got the i6 and it’s worth every penny to be able to enjoy my patio in the summer
