"JP3 Electric helped us upgrade our home in the Mountain View area of San Diego. They were responsive to our needs and requests. We had several outlets indoors and outdoors installed. 4 indoor ceiling fans were installed. JP3 were clean and responsible for taking care of our home. They were quick to respond to changes and best of all they were very affordable! I highly recommend their services 🙌🏾"

"From getting an estimate and receiving the information related to the upgrade on my electrical panel based on having an older home which was grandfathered in. I felt more at ease and comfortable with the upgrade from Keil, the technician was professional and so was staff that provided the estimate. I would never hesitate on hiring Keil for all of my electrical needs."

"The pro that installed the outlet in my garage for my sauna did a great job. He was professional, on time and efficient. Great work! I needed a new direct outlet 120v and 15 amp and he got the job done."

"Excellent service. Excellent rates. Another company told us we would have to wait 3 months to replace our electrical power box but this company was able to do it in a few weeks. They were also much less expensive. They were even able to get my power up about 1.5 hours earlier than expected."

Ceiling Fans FAQs, answered by experts

Installing a ceiling fan where no wiring exists is a difficult and potentially dangerous job that should not be attempted as a DIY project. It is recommended to hire a certified electrician to build the necessary electrical infrastructure. In some areas, building codes require this work to be done by a professional to ensure safety and compliance. Due to the complexity, this type of installation is a significant job that could cost up to $2,000.

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.

The square footage of your room will dictate the correct ceiling fan blade size. For example: 

  • Rooms smaller than 75 square feet require a fan that is 29 to 36 inches.

  • Rooms up to 175 square feet require 42- to 48-inch fans.

  • Rooms up to 350 square feet require 52- to 56-inch fans.

  • Expansive spaces over 350 square feet need a fan larger than 60 inches.

Most ceiling fans have a lifespan of anywhere from five to 15 years or 10 years on average. Just how long your ceiling fan lasts depends on the quality of the parts, how much it’s used, and how well you maintain it. A fan with a weak motor that runs on the medium setting nonstop is likely to have a shorter lifespan compared to a fan with a powerful motor that runs on the slowest setting for air circulation.

Many ceiling fan mounts feature a design that can accommodate slight slopes by using a ball joint mechanism at the end of the downrod. If your ceiling has a steeper slope than your fan allows for, you can install a downrod that will allow your fan to safely hang below the slope.
