Visual Comfort Fan Maverick Max 70 in Damp Rated Ceiling Fan — Matte Black / Dark Walnut

The Visual Comfort Fan Maverick Max (model 3MAVR70BK) is a 70 in damp-rated ceiling fan engineered for the largest open-plan spaces, great rooms, and expansive covered outdoor areas where bold contrast and high-output airflow set the tone. Powered by an energy-efficient DC motor, it delivers up to 6,821 CFM at high speed with an efficiency of 229 CFM/W. Three specialty hand-carved Dark Walnut blades against a Matte Black motor housing strike a warm, grounded balance — rich wood grain against sharp matte black, a pairing built for transitional, contemporary, and mid-century modern interiors. Damp-rated and TSCA Title VI compliant for versatile indoor and covered outdoor use.

Selecting the Right Fan Size

Visual Comfort Fan recommends allowing at least 18 to 24 in of clearance on all sides of the fan. For large spaces, consider using two smaller fans.

• 90–120 sq ft → Fan size: 44–52 in | CFM range: 3,500–5,000
• 125–300 sq ft → Fan size: 52–60 in | CFM range: 5,000–8,000
• 350+ sq ft → Fan size: 60–96 in | CFM range: 7,000–15,000

At 70 in and 6,821 CFM, the Maverick Max 3MAVR70BK is ideal for the largest rooms of 350+ sq ft such as grand great rooms, open-plan living areas, and large covered patios.
