Description
Amazing Style, Quality & Low Energy Use Designer Ceiling Fan
The Zephyr Propeller is a variation of the original Henley Zephyr and was launched in 2018. It has a more pronounced propeller type blade that doesn’t bend upwards towards the tips and enjoys a smooth continuous curve from blade-to-blade without any apex at the motor that looks truly amazing. The shape means a slightly lower amount of air movement but it still has the same amazing low-energy brushless EMC DC motor. This model is also a bit more expensive due to the shape, the finishes and smaller production runs and so is only available in the 60″/152cm size. The Zephyr name comes from the Greek god Zephyrus, who was god of the west wind, bringer of the light and early spring breezes.
The Zephyr Propeller is our own brand fan which means we can offer a great value fan that would normally cost over £1000 for around £650. It is beautifully styled on an early plane propeller but without the noise! It is an exceptionally high quality ceiling fan made in Taiwan by one of the best manufacturers globally who have been making ceiling fans for the top global brands over the last 40 years. It is one of the few high-end fan manufacturers that still remain in Taiwan, the rest having moved to China 10-15 years ago with lower costs and also lower quality.
It is perfect for restaurants, theatres, halls, seaside condos, outside, large rooms or common areas where large coverage is needed and can easily be achieved with its powerful ultra-low energy airflow. It is in fact totally silent and so perfect for bedrooms where every sound is amplified in the still of the night and we have supplied them to a number of top hotels including the Voyager Resort in Bodrum, Turkey (see pics) for their bedrooms. There are no annoying buzzes, hums, clicks or wobbles and more importantly something that is often forgotten about on high performance ceiling fans – no air movement noise or uncomfortable turbulent airflow. This is made possible by the slow moving blade rotation, balanced EMC brushless motors and blades, and having the lowest speed of all our models at just 65 rpm.
The blades are CNC machine-carved from Firmiana Simplex hardwood, commonly called the Chinese Parasol Tree which is light and strong similar to balsa. Firmiana is used for making furniture and musical instruments and is fast growing in sustainable forests and the blades are hand-finished and balanced to perfection with a resilient painted finish. Sycamore is a very strong and warp-proof hardwood but also very lightweight. The motor and finish are damp location approved for salty or humid environments such as by the sea. With this fan you can just relax and experience the spring breeze without any of the fuss or distraction from the fan itself.
The Propeller comes with a 2.4G wi fi 6-speed remote control that gives flexible setup for pairing one or more fans to one remote. The fan is totally quiet, very efficient and extremely reliable. Each motor is hand-tested on all speeds in the factory. The stylish design with the hidden slimline very compact motor make this model very popular in many countries where it is sold under different brand names but usually with only a 10 year warranty. We have increased the specification and hence can offer it with a Lifetime Warranty. This is without doubt one of the best quality, best value, best looking ceiling fans that we sell.
Variations of the Zephyr Propeller are taking the world by storm and it has proved to be very popular in Asia, the Middle East and USA. Now we have made it available to the 240 volt market and our customers just love them. Why settle for anything less? Just compare the quality, design, reliability and performance with other fans for this price. It is a choice you will never regret as you enjoy years of pleasure!

Outdoor Ceiling Fan – Use by Sea and in Damp Conditions
The Zephyr Propeller is also rated for damp and sea climate use. This means that the motor is suitable for use in outside damp, humid and sea-salt climate locations provided the fan is kept covered (no direct water, non-IP rated). The rust-proof finish has a warranty of 3 years. It is also ideal for conservatories that get cold and damp in the winter or seaside condos, and is popular on boats or ships (needs a voltage regulator).
The Most Efficient Ceiling Fan Tested By US Government
The 110v sister version of the Zephyr Propeller has the same motor and has become one of the best selling designer ceiling fans in the USA. It is one of only a few to be awarded the Energy Star Most Efficient ceiling fan for energy usage in 2017 and 2018 by the US government Environmental Protection Agency. This independent body tested it to give an incredible efficiency of 1,158 cubic foot a minute/watt which is 2-3 times most other brands.

ergy savings over an AC motor for the same airflow
A Godsend – Toby Dalton (verified owner) –
This fan was a life saver for us in the recent hot weather as our bedroom has a high vaulted ceiling that gets very hot. This worked really well and was also very quiet.
I love the grey oak blades – Madison Brown (verified owner) –
I chose this finish over the walnut and light wood of the main Zephyr and am very happy that I did as it looks brilliant. A real touch of class!
Just Beautiful – Sarah Clayton (verified owner) –
This fan looks more beautiful than the photos. The light wood finish and black motor as simply stunning.
A quality product – Graham Ainsworth (verified owner) –
My Dad is a qualified electrician and commented on the quality of this product. Everything about it speaks of quality.
Good service – Tim Kensley (verified owner) –
The motor was making a slight ticking noise and so Henley Fan replaced it straight away without any fuss which solved the issue as we needed a silent fan in our bedroom.
Excellent Product – Peter Lincoln (verified owner) –
Everything about this product is excellent. Well worth the money, I will definitely be buying some more.
Disappointed – April Connolly (verified owner) –
I had high expectations of this fan and was disappointed. The delivery was late and one of the blades was damaged which Niki sent us a replacement for but was annoying as it delayed us having it working quickly in the heatwave.
Stunning! – Tim Watson (verified owner) –
Such a beautiful design, style and finish with lovely curves!
The Best Ceiling Fan Ever – Mike Eve (verified owner) –
Over the years I have bought many ceiling fans but this one is definitely the best one. A lot of careful thought and design has gone into it and the result is impressive. Well done Henley Fan!
It’s a work of art! – Thomas Atherton (verified owner) –
I really love the carved blades they are almost like a sculpture. The flowing lines and curves are really beautiful to look at and matched by an equally impressive performance.
They Work Impressively – Richard Digby (verified owner) –
I put 4 of these in my restaurant which already had AC and the improvement was amazing. I set the AC to be warmer saving money and the customers comment on the improvement too.
Brilliant, better than expected! – Tina Colebrook (verified owner) –
I am very happy with my choice. The Zephyr looks great and works great and is so quiet in my lounge.
Simple, effective style – Tom Stephens (verified owner) –
This was one of my better investments and makes my small office so much more comfortable on hot days.
A godsend for my hot apartment – Sara Gabrowski (verified owner) –
I couldn’t get airflow through my apartment as the windows are all on one side. This does the trick wonderfully and now I can work and sleep in a pleasant temperature instead of feeling cooked all the time.
Perfect for my restaurant – Toby Robinson (verified owner) –
I bought 6 of these for my restaurant and they work a treat. We have air conditioning but it was making the food cold leading to complaints. With the fans we have turned the AC to low, saved a load on the electric and have more comfortable customers.
