Design Your Perfect Outdoor Space
Outdoor comfort is rarely just about shade. To truly extend the usability of a space during humid afternoons or still evenings, airflow is a necessity. The new StruXure Fan was engineered specifically to solve this, offering a low-voltage, integrated solution that prioritizes both performance and minimalist design.
Purpose-Built for Outdoor Living
While there are many high-quality outdoor-rated fans on the market, the StruXure Fan is specifically designed to meet the rigorous demands of open-air environments while integrating seamlessly with Pergola X. It carries an IP66 rating, providing high-level protection against dust and water ingress. Whether installed on a patio or in a freestanding pergola, it is built to maintain its performance and finish year-round.
Technical Performance & Specs
At the core of this outdoor ceiling fan is a 24V brushless DC motor. This technology enables “whisper-quiet” operation without disrupting conversation, a critical factor in residential entertainment and hospitality environments.

Why Low-Voltage Design Matters
The decision to utilize a 24VDC design rather than traditional high-voltage AC power offers several mechanical and financial advantages:
- Simplified Installation: The low-voltage design often eliminates the need for a licensed electrician, significantly reducing installation time and labor costs (though local requirements should always be verified).
- Centralized Power Source: The fans are powered directly by the same Somfy operating-system power supply used for the pergola itself.
- Streamlined Architecture: One control box can support up to four StruXure fans and four Somfy XDrive motors. This keeps the “brain” of the system centralized and allows for cleaner wiring through the pergola’s structural beams without invasive high-voltage routing.
Smart Integration & Control
The StruXure Fan lives seamlessly within your existing smart ecosystem. It bypasses the need for disjointed third-party remotes by integrating directly with the StruXure Bridge powered by Bond.
- App-Based Control: Manage speeds and schedules via smartphone.
- System Synergy: A single control box can support up to four fans and four Somfy motors, keeping the “brain” of your pergola centralized and the wiring footprint minimal.
- Low-Voltage Advantage: Because the fan runs on 24VDC power, installation is often significantly more streamlined than traditional high-voltage fans, requiring less invasive electrical routing through the pergola’s structural beams.
Form Follows Function
Available in black or white to match StruXure’s signature finishes, the fan’s slim, five-blade profile is intended to disappear into the architecture. It provides the necessary circulation to cut through humidity without compromising the clean, modern lines of a luxury outdoor living space.
Planning Your Space
When specifying a fan for a project, consider the scale of the structure. For larger commercial terraces or expansive residential “Great Outdoor” rooms, multiple fans can be synchronized to create a consistent breeze across the entire footprint.
The StruXure Fan is not just an add-on. It is a functional upgrade that ensures your outdoor environment remains as comfortable as your indoor one.
