What works
- 4,833 CFM on high from a 56-inch sweep
- 5 speed settings
- Westinghouse publishes 4,833 CFM, 196 RPM, 56 W and 0.50 A at high speed
- Five-speed wall control included

What doesn't

Who it's for
Good fit
- Great rooms, home offices and finished spaces up to the 400 square feet the listing names
- Buyers who prefer a wall control to a handheld remote
- Low running cost, with Westinghouse listing 56 W and 0.50 A on high

See price on AmazonWhy it stands out
Most 56-inch fans stop at "quiet" and "powerful." Westinghouse gives the Jax a real spec line: 4,833 CFM at high speed, 196 RPM, 56 W and 0.50 A. That makes it one of the few room-size ceiling fans you can size and cost out before it arrives. Three brushed-nickel steel blades give it the industrial look without an industrial footprint.
Control is simple: a five-speed wall control, so there is no remote to lose. The listing states a 15-year limited motor warranty and two years on other parts.
What to know before you buy
- Size: the listing pitches it for great rooms up to 400 square feet, and that is the right way to think about it. It is a room fan, not a warehouse fan.
- Mounting: downrod only and indoor only. Hang it from a ceiling box marked for fan support, and keep the 56-inch sweep clear of walls and light fixtures. The weight is not published, so check the carton before choosing hardware.
- Power: 56 W on high keeps running cost low.
- Noise: the listing describes quiet performance, but no sound rating is published.
How it compares
- Big Air ICF72UPS 72-inch: Maxx Air lists up to 10,200 CFM on 35 W with a six-speed remote. That is more than twice the air on less power, if you have room for a 72-inch sweep.
- Fanimation Odyn 84-inch: 10,104 CFM on 32 W, an integrated LED light and a dry/damp rating. The step up for a large great room or covered porch.
- Garage with no good ceiling spot? A wall-mount industrial fan puts air on the work area without a ceiling install.

Bottom line
The Jax is an honest, well-documented room fan. Buy it for an indoor space where 4,833 CFM is enough. For anything bigger, a 72-inch or 84-inch fan moves more air on less power.
Verdict
Buy the Jax 7861400 if you want a documented, low-draw 56-inch fan with a wall control for an indoor room. Skip it for shops, barns or covered patios, where a 72-inch or larger fan does far more work.

Put 4,833 CFM in context
The Westinghouse Jax 7861400 56-inch Ceiling Fan has a listed airflow of 4,833 cubic feet per minute. The table compares this rated volume with example room volumes. It does not measure fresh-air exchange, air speed at your body, or room coverage.
| Room | Size | Nominal room volumes / hour | Nominal pass interval |
|---|---|---|---|
| One-car garage | 22 × 12 × 9 ft · 2,376 ft³ | 122× | 29 s |
| Two-car garage | 22 × 20 × 9 ft · 3,960 ft³ | 73× | 49 s |
| Workshop | 40 × 30 × 12 ft · 14,400 ft³ | 20× | 3 min |
| Warehouse bay | 100 × 50 × 16 ft · 80,000 ft³ | 3.6× | 17 min |
A circulation fan does not by itself replace indoor air. Exhaust airflow depends on a makeup-air path and system resistance. Use installed outdoor airflow for ventilation calculations.
Formula: airflow × 60 ÷ room volume. CDC explains the ventilation form of this equation; here the input is a catalog rating, so the result is a volume comparison.
