What size fan should I get?

• <div><p>The square footage of your room will dictate the correct ceiling fan blade size. For example: </p><ul><li><p>Rooms smaller than 75 square feet require a fan that is 29 to 36 inches.</p></li><li><p>Rooms up to 175 square feet require 42- to 48-inch fans.</p></li><li><p>Rooms up to 350 square feet require 52- to 56-inch fans.</p></li><li><p>Expansive spaces over 350 square feet need a fan larger than 60 inches.</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

How do I know I need my ceiling fan repaired or replaced?

• <div><p>There are several telltale signs to let you know that your ceiling fan needs servicing or replacement. For instance, if it’s wobbling, rotating too slowly, or if your <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/why-is-my-ceiling-fan-making-noise.htm">ceiling fan is making noise</a> such as squeaks, buzzes, and thumps, it’s time to have it looked at by a professional. Not only may it indicate a potential problem with the fan itself, but it could also signal a red flag that it’s improperly assembled or there’s an issue with the wiring. </p></div>

How far from the floor should a ceiling fan be mounted?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>
