"I had an excellent experience with Mr. Electric! Joseph did an outstanding job at my home. He was professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain everything he was doing. He repaired the electrical issues in my dining room and was able to restore power to my ceiling lights, which had not been working. His workmanship was top-notch, and he made sure everything was working perfectly before he left. I truly appreciate his attention to detail and excellent customer service. If you need electrical work done, I highly recommend Mr. Electric—especially Joseph. Thank you for a job well done!"

"Oscar arrived on time. Nice and early in the morning and he was able to remove the old fan and replaced it with a new one. He cleaned up afterwards. I will hire him and Garafano electric again in the future."

"Jeremy and Kagan did an excellent job installing new fixtures in my home. They were even able to install a ceiling fan in my bedroom that had no attic access without punching any holes in the ceiling or walls. I am thrilled with the result. I would not hesitate to hire Douglas Wright Electric again. Professional, courteous, excellent clean up and respect of my home."

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

Though possible, installing a ceiling fan yourself requires electrical knowledge and confidence working with home wiring. Following the manufacturer's instructions carefully and observing safety precautions are crucial components of a DIY installation.

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.

No, a ceiling fan doesn’t have to be wired to a switch, but it’s often more convenient. You can use the included pull chain if your ceiling isn’t too high or install a remote module later, as they are a cheap, easy-to-install option that’ll let you control both the fan and light fixture.

To determine if your ceiling box can support a fan, you must check if it is specifically fan-rated. Manufacturers are required to indicate this on the box itself. You may need to remove the existing light fixture to look inside the ceiling box for an inscription stating it is rated for fan use. If you do not see this confirmation, the box is likely not strong enough and must be replaced with a fan-rated junction box. For a proper and safe installation, you should also use a fan brace to secure the new box between the ceiling joists, which provides the necessary support for the fan's weight and motion.

A typical fan installation takes between two and six hours. The exact timeframe can be influenced by factors such as the home's structure, existing electrical characteristics, ease of attic access, and whether complex wiring or additional attic ventilation work is required.
