Are ceiling fans worth it?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/ceiling-fan-buying-guide.htm">Ceiling fans</a> are very often worth the investment because they improve comfort in your living space and help reduce utility bills. In the late spring and early fall—and even in the summer in some areas—homeowners with ceiling fans can often get away with open windows and fans, which can cut down on cooling bills and also reduce wear and tear on the HVAC system. Over time, ceiling fans can pay for themselves by saving you money on electric bills and air conditioner repair and maintenance.</p></div>

Can ceiling fans be installed anywhere?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: How long does it typically take to install these fans?

• <div><p>Installation generally takes 2 to 4 hours, depending on the home structure, electrical characteristics, and attic access ease.</p></div>

Q: Is a longer ceiling fan blade better than a shorter blade?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;re looking for more wind. However, a longer blade will consume more energy than a shorter blade.</p></div>

Q: Should I install a ceiling fan or an air conditioner?

• <div><p>Ceiling fans can be a great way to cool your home without the expensive utility bill of running an air conditioner. Plus, ceiling fans can sometimes run in both directions, pushing hot air down in winter and pulling cold air up in summer. With that said, air conditioning might be the only thing that helps if you live in a very warm climate.</p></div>

Mark did an excellent job of drywall finishing. He had to match the "orange peel" finish of the wall and ceiling and it was perfect.

"Wireone states they give you qoute before the service. When I asked how much GFCI outlet change would cost, call center agent gave me $ 69. Turns out this was just for sending an electrician and the price was $227. I don't think this was electrian's fault but be wary of wireone's deceptive marketing practice."
