Yes, will be sure and get wet rated.
If you go to Lowe’s or Home Depot’s website, look at the product specs for any fan. All have the CFM they move. Even outdoor rated fan blades will drop in the heat. Only difference being outdoor rated fan blades are plastic. Some, not all, outdoor rated fans have weep holes to allow water/moisture to escape a portion of the housing. Point is, it’s unlikely your fan will ever get “wet” on a lanai ceiling.
