What Does Low Profile Ceiling Fan Mean?
You might be wondering like I was, why the Holly Springs Ceiling Fan model is called low-profile. Naming it a low-profile fan doesn’t mean that the quality is not good, it refers to the design of this ceiling fan.
A low-profile ceiling fan will work best on a low ceiling. It can be mounted and hang under 12 inches, allowing the fan to carry prime airflow without dangling too low.
To simplify, a low-profile fan comes with a downrod, while the hugger ceiling fan doesn’t include it. If you are looking for a ceiling fan model for your low ceiling, you might want to consider a low profile ceiling fan instead of a hugger, in that way, you’ll find a lot more options available to choose from.
As you may have noticed by looking at the table above, this unit produced lower airflow when compared to the other Holly Spring models, at only 3763 cubic feet per minute.
Holly Springs Low-profile Ceiling Fan Maintenance Tips
Just like any other machine that you have at home, maintenance is a part of ensuring they keep working as intended for a long time. It can help in preserving the unit in a good condition and prolongation of the ceiling fan’s life.
One way to maintain a ceiling fan is by lubrication. You can do this by putting nondetergent motor oil into the ceiling fan bearings. Every manufacturer will usually give you a suggested brand of motor oil, and the amount of oil that you need for lubricating the motor bearings of the fan, it is best to follow their suggestions.
The latest model of ceiling fan comes with its own self-lubricating property or a self-oiling type. If that is the case you don’t have to lubricate it annually.

How to know that your ceiling fan needs lubrication?
As I have mentioned, most of the latest model of ceiling fans have their own self -oiling type. However, if you own an old model you should be aware that lubricating the ceiling fan bearings regularly is important.
You will know that your ceiling fan needs lubrication if you can see an oil hole in the motor. Another sign that the ceiling fan needs to be lubricated is when out of nowhere it starts to make a high-pitched noise and starts to wobble. It means that the bearing inside the motor is calling for a drop of oil.
How to Put Oil in the Bearings?
- From the fan’s motor, find the hole for the oil. If you are using an oil with a sprayer, spray a little amount of oil into the hole.
- Wait for at least 2 hours for the oil to do its job.
- Pour about an ounce of motor oil, until it flows out of the top.
- Wipe the oil that is in the housing.
- Try spinning the ceiling fan manually to let the oil go deep into the parts where the noise came from
For inaccessible and sealed bearings
- Take off the blades and the motor from the ceiling.
- Take off the motor casing so you can have a way to access the bearings.
- To avoid that hassle of additional disassembling of the fan, look for a junction where the moving parts and the consistent part meet on the motor shaft, gradually place the oil through the junction.
- After a thorough application of lubricant, return the blades and the motor to the ceiling fan brackets. Repeat the process after a year.

If you want a perfect white appearance, I suggest you replace the bulbs with 5000K daylight bulbs.
