"We had collected nine different electrical projects, and Tommy's crew of five did them all in less than four hours! They installed a ceiling fan, three ceiling fixtures, put in a new outlet for my pantry, installed two exterior GFI outlets for lighting in the back yard, fixed the front doorbell and ran a CAT5 cable to my husband's "man cave" adjacent to the house. They were totally delightful to work with, did everything quickly and professionally, and cleaned up afterwards. We're definitely going to hire them again!"

"Great business. Victor was prompt with an answer as soon as I contacted him. An appointment was made for a few days after our talk. Victor arrived exactly on time. The work he did was outstanding. I own a newer home and the lights he replaced in my kitchen look so much better now than what had originally been installed by the builder. The LED lights that were suggested by Victor are an upgrade as well. Victor performed the job quickly and efficiently. He was very friendly and professional. I would highly recommended to anyone who needs an electrician to not hesitate to call Tower Power Electric. I will be using Tower Power again. Thank you Victor!"

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

If you’re replacing an old fixture with a ceiling fan, you usually won’t need a permit, but if your electrician runs new wiring for the fixture, you likely will need a permit. Building permits are necessary in most municipalities if you’re making changes to your electrical system, so even if you have partial wiring run to the area and need new wiring installed for added functionality, you’ll probably need a permit. Your electrician should be able to let you know if you need one, and they’ll typically file the paperwork for you.

If the fan doesn’t have a switch, connect the white wire from the ceiling to the white wire from the fan; connect the green wire to the ground wire; connect both black wires; and connect both blue wires. If yours has a switch, the white and green wires are connected the same way. However, connect the ceiling’s red wire to the light’s black wire and the ceiling’s black wire to the fan’s black wire. 

Whether you can install a ceiling fan yourself depends on if you're replacing an existing fixture or installing one where no wiring exists. If you are replacing an existing fan, an experienced DIYer may be able to do the job, which can save on labor costs. This work typically doesn’t require a permit, but there’s always a safety risk when dealing with electrical components, so hiring a pro is still a good idea, especially if you aren't handy. Keep in mind you may need a special ladder for high or vaulted ceilings. However, if you are installing a new ceiling fan where there is no current fixture, you must hire a licensed electrician. In most areas, it is required by law that a professional runs new wiring and pulls the necessary permits. Attempting to install wiring yourself can be dangerous and a code violation.

Ceiling fans offer multiple benefits for your home. They improve air circulation to prevent stagnant environments and provide cost-effective temperature control, which can reduce reliance on your HVAC system and help lower utility bills. In addition to their functional advantages, ceiling fans can also enhance a room's aesthetic appeal with features like built-in lighting and modern styling.

There’s no reason why you can’t install a ceiling fan anywhere in your home, such as in living rooms, offices, bedrooms, and dining areas. Most bathrooms already have ventilation and don’t need a ceiling fan. For safety purposes, avoid installing a ceiling fan where the blades will be less than eight feet from the floor, near bunk beds, or anywhere else they may hit nearby objects.
