"

5 Star Electric installed a ceiling fan in our master bedroom. Tommy and Ian showed up on time ready to get the job done.  There was no fixture in the ceiling so they had to cut a hole in the ceiling, install a junction box, run wiring through the small crawl space in the attic down to the existing wall switch and cut an additional hole in the wall for the fan wall switch.  It works great, looks great and Tommy and Ian cleaned up thoroughly.  This is the second ceiling fan install 5 Star and done in our home.  I’m confident the job was done correctly.

"We had a leak in our dining room ceiling because of a leak in our kid's bathroom above. We received many quotes to repair and replace, or remodel, the entire bathroom. The quotes ranged in price from $7000 to $20,000 and everywhere in between. And materials for the tub, walls and floor varied even more. Bath Doctor was not only the least expensive, they were the most responsive, really listening to and addressing our concerns. They also took the least amount of time to do the job--just 3 days and provided the longest lasting warranties on their work--lifetime on the materials which were all waterproof and low maintenance. It's been almost three months since they completed the work and we haven't had any leakage or any other problems since they fixed it. They definitely deserve a 5-Star rating and we will certainly use them again to fix our master bathroom."

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, ceiling fans come with a few other features that help with function, style, and convenience. Multi-speed fans can give you specialized control over the airflow. Consider getting one with an integrated light to save ceiling space. Some ceiling fans come with a remote control that enables you to change direction without climbing a ladder. Of course, you can also consider installing a wall switch to enjoy that convenience.

The more surface area that a ceiling fan blade has, the more effective it will be at producing airflow. Therefore, a longer ceiling fan blade is the better option if you’re looking for more wind. However, a longer blade will consume more energy than a shorter blade.

Fan power is measured by CFM, or cubic feet per minute. For every 1,000 feet of square footage in your attic, you need a minimum of 700 CFM. Steeper roofs may need larger fans or about 840 CFM.  You can figure the size of attic fan you need by multiplying the square footage of your attic floor by 0.7. (multiply by 1.2 for a steep roof and 1.15 for a dark roof). That number is the CFM required for your fan to run efficiently.

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.
