when I put up fans in our old apt I spent hours at menards comparing cfm's and energy usage charts. Finaly I settled on a low profile hunter that was I think about 68 inches in diameter but it actualy had a really low power useage and moved more air on low than alot of the 36-42" fans did on medium or even high.
The disapointing thing was that this particular fan had an IR remote for the fan and the light. The controller unit in the fan itself had issues where it would turn off the fan, or turn on the lights at 3 in the morning.
We were moving out soon so I just had the complex put up one of their cheap ones and I took it back.
I'd definatly get a similar non IR unit in the future though. made heating and cooling so easy.
