Craftmade warranty for ceiling fans
The short version
Craftmade covers ceiling fans in full for 1 year, then keeps motor repair labor and motor covered for life. That full coverage is longer than most of the 18 brands we compared, which typically cover nothing in full. You don't need to register to get this coverage.
From Craftmade's published warranty, checked October 2026.
