WET LOCATION fans and light fixtures are designed for locations that are susceptible to direct exposure to the elements. They have been subjected to a water spray test by UL (Underwriter's Laboratories). During the test, fans are subjected to water spray in the direction most likely to cause water to enter.

When installing in a wet location, the outlet box must be recessed and mounted to the 6" side of a 4" x 6" wooden beam. The outlet box has to be sealed such that no water enters it, and the canopy cannot overhang the beam on either side.
