A ceiling mounted fan unit includes a lamp based connector adapted to be threaded into a threaded lamp socket to releasably mount the fan to the ceiling. The fan unit is a lightweight unit including an integrated motor drive which is coupled to a rotating fan blade support structure by a speed reducing torque increasing coupling unit. The coupling unit may include a belt drive, a friction drive and a direct gear drive. A releasable housing is secured to the fan unit to permit coordinated decorative fan blade with the room. An auxiliary support structure can be incorporated into the fan unit to physically engage a wall socket to supplement the physical support. An electrical control circuit incorporates various safety controls to prevent minimized hazards as a result of the drive system of the electrical system. The fan blades are releasably connected to the support to permit changes in the decorative characteristic of the fan blades.
