In 2012, we entered the residential market with the Haiku line. Inspired by aerospace engineering, Haiku’s airfoils are sculpted to create optimal air movement while cutting through the air silently. To ensure that Haiku fans never rattle, wobble or squeak, each fan is hand-balanced by a trained technician in Lexington, Kentucky, then tested for silence in a state-of-the-art soundproof chamber. Haiku believes in smart technology that simplifies your life. Our SenseME®-equipped indoor fans feature an array of built-in sensors that detect when you enter or leave a space and alter fan operation based on environmental changes. Translation? When you’re hot, Haiku fans automatically turn on to keep you cool — and then shut off when you leave. With the intuitive Haiku Home app, you can set your Haiku fans and lights to a predetermined schedule for effortless and automatic operation. Additionally, Haiku uses a fraction of the energy of traditional fans. How? Cutting-edge engineering. Every Haiku is powered by a customized DC motor using permanent magnet technology. And with a cooling effect up to 10°F (6°C), Haiku fans can reduce your reliance on energy-intensive A/C cooling. And we’ve backed everything with serious research, intensive engineering, and an almost obsessive drive to innovate and improve. No matter what we’re doing, we go Big Ass every single day, and we’re not stopping. ### Services Provided - Lighting Design - Lighting Sales - Lighting Installation - Outdoor Lighting Installation - Ceiling Fan Installation - Ceiling Fan Repair ### Areas Served - Lexington - Lexington-Fayette - Georgetown - Alexandria - Monticello - Midway - Sacramento - Oakland - Keene - Columbus - Atlanta - Austin - Australia - Birmingham - Canada - Charleston - Charlotte - Chicago - Dallas - Denver - Detroit - District of Columbia - Gilbert - Hong Kong - Houston - Huffman - Jacksonville - Kansas City - Las Vegas - Los Angeles - Miami - Migrate - Naples - Nashville - New York - Norwalk - Philadelphia - Phoenix - Pittsburgh - Portland - Raleigh - Redondo Beach - San Antonio - San Diego - Seattle - Singapore - St. Louis - United States ### Typical Job Cost $499 - 14,999 ## Business Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Business Name | Big Ass Fans | | Address | 2348 Innovation Drive, Lexington, Kentucky 40511, United States | | Phone | (877) 244-3267 | | Website | http://www.haikuhome.com/ushouzz | | Followers on Houzz | 1304 | **Social profiles:** - Facebook — https://www.facebook.com/bigassfans - X (Twitter) — https://twitter.com/bigassfans - LinkedIn — www.linkedin.com/company/big-ass-fans/ - Blog — http://www.bigassfans.com ## Contact - **Houzz profile:** [Big Ass Fans](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/lighting-showrooms-and-sales/big-ass-fans-pfvwus-pf~687871495) - **Website:** http://www.haikuhome.com/ushouzz - **Phone:** (877) 244-3267 ## Credentials **Certifications & Awards** - 2019 Lightovation Best Ceiling Fan Market Choice Award Winner - 2019 ENERGY STAR Most Efficient Ceiling Fan - 2018 ENERGY STAR Most Efficient Ceiling Fan - 2017 ENERGY STAR Most Efficient Ceiling Fan - 2016 ENERGY STAR Most Efficient Ceiling Fan - 2016 ENERGY STAR Excellence Award - Product Design - **Best of Houzz:** 3 awards (2015–2017), for Design. ## Reviews **Overall rating: 4.9 out of 5 — 17 reviews** *Aspect averages:* - Work Quality: 50.0 - Communication: 50.0 - Value: 50.0 ### Reviews **★★★★★ — Spire Architecture \| SpireBuilt, July 2022** > i love big ass fans products, support, and options. > i have used them since 2008 and will continue to do so. **★★★★ — wadebill31, June 2016** > I love, love, love my Haiku fan.
