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>

Can I install my own ceiling fans?

• <div><p>It’s possible to install your own ceiling fans if you’re replacing an existing one. This work doesn’t require a permit and technically doesn’t necessitate a certified electrician, but it’s still a good idea to hire one. There’s always a safety risk when working with electrical components, even if you shut the power off at the breaker. If you’re installing a new ceiling fan where there currently isn’t a fixture, you will need a licensed electrician to run the new wiring and pull permits for the work.</p></div>

Q: How do I know which type of ceiling fan to get?

• <div><p>There are many <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-ceiling-fans-cool-down-your-home.htm">types of ceiling fans</a>, from self-automated smart ceiling fans to outdoor ceiling fans that provide additional comfort to your patio. What you choose all comes down to function and personal taste.</p><p>Consider your ceiling height when selecting a ceiling fan. Rooms with ceilings under eight feet high will do well with low-profile ceiling fans, also known as flush-mount or hugger ceiling fans. If your home has cathedral ceilings or ceilings between 10 and 25 feet high, you&rsquo;ll need a large ceiling fan with a heavy-duty motor to get adequate air circulation.</p></div>

Q: Can I install a fan on a sloped ceiling?

• <div><p>Many ceiling fan mounts feature a design that can accommodate slight slopes by using a ball joint mechanism at the end of the downrod. If your ceiling has a steeper slope than your fan allows for, you can install a downrod that will allow your fan to safely hang below the slope. </p></div>

This work doesn&rsquo;t require a permit and technically doesn&rsquo;t necessitate a certified electrician, but it&rsquo;s still a good idea to hire one.

Q: How do I know if my ceiling box can support a fan?

• <div><p>The ceiling box should have an inscription stating that it supports the operation of the ceiling fan. If it&rsquo;s not included, you should purchase a fan-rated junction box and a fan brace so you can install the box between joists, where it&rsquo;ll provide the most support for the fan&rsquo;s weight.</p></div>

Brandon Turner did some roof repair work for us in 2017. We now have multiple ceiling leaks. We tried multiple times to contact him about our concerns and he would not respond. Think twice about hiring this company to do any work for you.
