Ar Ruthiane

Rotating about its teardrop center, the Ar Ruthiane's unique hourglass support arms grasp bullet shaped motor housings. At 48” in diameter, the Ruthiane is Matthews’ most substantial fan. The motor 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 motor head position and fan blade speed. The Ar Ruthiane is available in polished chrome, brushed nickel, polished copper, bronze or black. White, brushed copper, polished brass, brushed brass, black nickel and bronzette are available as special orders.  Bronzette, incidentally, is our monochromatic powdercoated bronze finish. 

• Matthews rotational fans circulate heat and air conditioning more efficiently than traditional paddle fans.
• Constructed of cast aluminum, heavy gauge spun and stamped steel, the Ruthiane is UL listed and carries a limited lifetime warranty.
• The Ar Ruthiane is equipped with ecologically harvested mahogany blades without blade guards or metal blades with safety or decorative metal blade cages.  The safety cages can be used on lower ceiling heights - as low as 7.0 Ft in the US or 8.3 Ft in Canada.
• All metal bladed fans are damp location rated if ordered with protective powder or clear coatings.
• Each unique motor mount and fan head knob is made of genuine marbleized Bakelite.
