"Mike did a great job in venting my bathroom fan. I really appreciated how instead of charging me hundreds of dollars to cut a hole in my roof like others had, he instead routed it out of an existing fan vent that worked just as well. It's great to have someone honest and willing to just do what's needed."

"Victor was great to work with start to finish. Shared his plan and took pictures along the way to explain what he was doing. Very reasonably priced, punctual and professional. I didn’t like the original bathroom fan I had chosen and Victor came back to install a different one and gave me a great discount which I appreciated. Looking forward to working with him again for my electric needs at the house!"

"Daniel from Imperial Electric did an excellent job for us. We had a relatively small issue that he rectified for us very quickly and then did a very thorough inspection of our entire house at our request. He made a number of recommendations to upgrade our old electrical system that were practical, reasonable and in line with current codes."

"Colin, from Grand D. Electric, arrived this morning and did an excellent job installing our new bathroom ceiling lights. He was competitive, prompt, polite, quick, and very respectful of our home. After he departed you would not have know we had any work done EXCEPT we had new working lights! Great job!!! I would highly recommend Colin for your next electrical project."

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

To convert a ceiling fan to wireless, you’ll need to install a canopy module to access the lighting and fan controls. Many options are available, all of which help you control specific elements of your ceiling fan, so you have plenty of choices depending on your needs.

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.

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.

Generally, a ceiling fan should be mounted at least seven feet from the floor in the center of your room with a wall clearance of around 18 inches. If your ceiling is more than eight feet high, it’s recommended by experts that the ceiling fan be mounted around eight to nine feet from the ground. This helps ensure a better quality of circulated airflow.

The number of blades for your fan poses both advantages and disadvantages. Typically, the more blades on a fan, the better the air distribution and cooling effect, but this also means that your fan will have more wear on its motor. For small rooms, three-blade fans should work fine. For larger areas like living rooms, four or five-blade fans might be the better option.
