"James was able to put up my ceilings fans the same day I contacted him. He was on time, very friendly and cleaned up after all the work. I had 4 ceiling fans replaced and he did a great job. I will definitely use him again and I highly recommend him."

"Thank you to Igor with VoltCall. We scheduled a teardown of 2 old ceiling fans and installation of 2 new Hunter Ceiling Fans. Dennis was the first to come on 5/25. He was very prompt and accommodating (after 5 pm) and did a great job installation both new fans. However, we realized I ordered a short down rod for the kitchen fan that the blades were hitting the sloped ceiling. Igor just came today, 6/28 on short notice to install new down rod and now the fan looks great. Igor is super professional, works quickly with very affordable rates. Thank you to Igor and VoltCall. I would recommend them to anyone!"

"I called Mr. Electric of Highland park to determine whether there was a problem with powering up my roof cables due to the heavy snow we had over this past weekend in the Chicago region. I called on Sunday, and (thinking not to receive a call back until the upcoming week) the owner, Ken, returned my call the same day. I was able to have one of his techs, Daniel, who I used a couple of weeks ago, come out and took care of the issue pronto. I can only HIGHLY recommend Mr. Electric of Highland park for its promptness, attention to detail, courteousness, and certainly expertise."

"Bart and his team did excellent work! Installed several fans, switches, and lights. Quick, responsive, and very professional. Bart even took the time to answer a few basic electrical questions I had about some of the wiring in my house. His rates were also the most reasonable I saw. I will absolutely call him again for every electrical project I have!"

"I had an outrageous quote (nearly $2K) from a big multi service contractor and looked here for a small business electrician. Daniel of Imperial Electric came out straight away and fixed the problem down the line that had taken out power to two of the kitchen outlets. It was a puzzle but he solved it for $260. I will be referring him to friends and family."

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

If your home already has wires for a ceiling fan (and optional light kit), then it’s quite safe to wire and install it yourself. Always be very careful to shut off the power before you begin, and confirm that the power is safely off with a non-contact voltage tester before touching anything. It’s also highly recommended to use eye protection, rubberized gloves, and tools with rubber handles to keep yourself safe from electric shock.

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. 

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.

There are many types of ceiling fans available, each designed for different spaces and needs. Standard ceiling fans are the most common type and work well in most rooms. Low-profile ceiling fans are better suited for rooms with low ceilings. Smart ceiling fans can be controlled with a smartphone or voice commands. For larger spaces with ceilings between 10 and 25 feet high, large ceiling fans are ideal. Dual-motor fans have two motors to produce more airflow in multiple directions. You can also find energy-efficient or Energy-Star models that can be up to 60% more efficient, as well as fans with built-in lights or retractable blades.

The most efficient ceiling fan height is 8 to 9 feet from the floor to the fan blades. For ceilings higher than 9 feet, a downrod can be used to lower the fan to the optimal height. This positioning ensures adequate air circulation and maximizes the cooling effect. Remember, fans should be installed at least 7 feet above the floor for safety.
