Construction & Design

The Simple Flush lives up to its name — a minimal, uninterrupted disc profile that hugs the ceiling at just 9.13 in total height with blade tips only 7.75 in from the ceiling. Three Grey ABS blades and a matching ABS bottom cap complete the monochromatic look — a cool, neutral silhouette that pairs naturally with concrete, slate, and modern industrial palettes. Ideal for low-clearance rooms, covered porches, open-air patios, bathrooms, and contemporary interiors. Product weight: 9.04 lbs.
