The Domus BLAST 52is a 1,321mm four-blade DC ceiling fan with a9-speed remote, reverse winter/summer mode, atropical rating, and an optional 18W LED light kit.

It is the 52-inch fan 1,321mm sweep. Our record holds twodifferent sizes.

101mm apart, and only one can describe this fan. The 48-inch model in the samerange records 1,220mm, so the figure has carried across.If blade clearance to a wall or a beam is tight, work to 1,321mm and tellus, and we will measure one.

Four blades at 52 inches, and what it moves

• 1,321mm sweep, 14.5 blade pitch, 14,305m/h airflow.
• 52 inches suits a larger living room an open-plan space, a big bedroom, acovered alfresco. For a room up to roughly 44m the 48-inch three-blade isenough.
• Four blades versus three is a smaller difference than people expect. Four runslightly smoother and marginally quieter at speed; three are a touch more efficient. At the speeds peopleactually use, the choice comes down to size and looks.
• Check the clearance. At 1,321mm the blade tips need room from walls, beams,pendant lights and the top of any door that swings beneath.

Why a DC motor

• 25W at full speed against roughly 7080W for a comparable AC fan and on a fan this size, running through a summer, that gap is substantial.
• Nine genuinely variable speeds rather than three fixed taps, so the lowest settingis a slow drift rather than low.
• Quieter at low speed, which is what matters overnight.
• Speed is controlled electronically, so the remote and receiver are part of thesystem rather than accessories and they carry a shorter warranty than the fan.

The warranty is two terms, not one

Our record shows 6 years. The datasheet reads:

That is not a six-year warranty. Three years where Domus attends, then three whereparts are replaced but the labour is yours and the electronics carry one year. We set it out rather than let the summed figure stand.

The light kit is optional and separate

• An 18W LED kit with 3000K / 4000K / 5000Kswitchable and dimmable from the remote.
• Our record carries the kit’s colour temperatures and a colour-changing flag on the fanitself. The fan has no light unless you buy the kit.
• Remote control of colour and level, rather than a dip switch, means adjusting fromthe sofa instead of from a ladder.
• Ask us to quote them together.

Construction and rating

• ABS polymer motor housing, canopy and blades. Polymer does not warp with humiditythe way timber can, and it is light part of what lets a DC motor run so efficiently.
• Tropically rated for heat and humidity.
• The datasheet gives IPX0 no water protection. Tropical rating and weatherrating are different things: this is an indoor or fully covered fan.
• An extension rod is available for high or raked ceilings.

Where it works

• Larger living rooms, open-plan spaces and big bedrooms.
• Covered alfrescos and humid climates tropically rated, polymer blades.
• Rooms where quiet low-speed running matters.
• Not exposed positions IPX0.
• Not a light on its own the kit is separate.
• Check blade clearance at 1,321mm, not 1,220mm.

Specifying it

1,321mm (52inch) four-blade DC ceiling fan.Sweep 1,321mm our record also holds a length of 1,220mm,which is the 48-inch figure. Blade pitch 14.5, airflow 14,305m/h,9 speeds, reversible. Motor 25W. 240V AC supply, DC motor.ABS polymer motor housing, canopy and blades. Tropically rated; IPX0 no water protection. 9-speed remote with timer and reversewinter/summer mode. Extension rod available. White or black.

Warranty: 3 years in-home + 3 years parts on the fan; 1 year in-home + 1 year parts on thereceiver and remote. Our record’s “6 years” is those two fan terms summed. Optional 18W LED TRIO light kit, sold separately.

Questions

How big is it really?

1,321mm sweep the 52-inch figure, and the one to work to. Our record holds two sizes: `fan_sweep_mm` of 1,321mm, which is correct, and a `length` of 1,220mm, which is the 48-inch model’s figure carried across. They are 101mm apart. If blade clearance to a wall, a beam or a pendant is tight, use 1,321mm and tell us we will measure one.

Should I get the 52 inch or the 48 inch?

Room size, mostly. The 52-inch four-blade moves 14,305m/h and suits a larger living room, an open-plan space, a big bedroom or a covered alfresco. The 48-inch three-blade moves 13,850m/h and is enough for a room up to roughly 4 4m. Four blades run slightly smoother and marginally quieter at speed; three are a touch more efficient. At normal speeds the difference is small.

Is the warranty really six years?

No. The datasheet gives the fan 3 years in-home plus 3 years parts replacement two different terms, where the second covers the part but not the labour and our record has summed them. The receiver and remote, which are what make a DC fan work, carry 1 year in-home plus 1 year parts.

How much power does it use?

25W at full speed, and this listing records it correctly. A comparable AC fan of this size draws roughly 7080W. With the optional light kit added you are at about 43W with everything running.

Does it come with a light?

No the 18W LED TRIO kit is a separate purchase. It switches between 3000, 4000 and 5000K and dims, both from the fan’s remote rather than a dip switch. Our record carries the kit’s colour temperatures on the fan itself, which is why this page mentions them; the fan has no light until you add the kit.

Can it go outside?

Under full cover only. It is tropically rated built for heat and humidity but the datasheet gives IPX0, meaning no water protection at all. Those are different things. A covered alfresco with a solid roof is fine; an exposed position is not.

How much clearance do the blades need?

Work from the 1,321mm sweep and check walls, beams, pendant lights and the swing of any door beneath it. Also allow room above: a fan mounted too close to the ceiling recirculates the same air and moves noticeably less of it, which is what the extension rod is for on a high ceiling.
