Do I need a permit to install a ceiling fan?

• <div><p>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. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/do-i-really-need-building-permit.htm">Building permits</a> 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.</p></div>

How likely is a ceiling fan to fall?

• <div><p>It is relatively rare for a ceiling fan to fall. A properly installed ceiling fan is attached firmly to a ceiling joist. Even if the fan is wobbling, it’s unlikely to fall down. However, you should promptly repair your fan when you notice wobbling or imbalance just to be safe.</p></div>

What should I add to my coffered ceiling?

• <div><p>Coffered ceilings often come with additional embellishments and accessories, including tin panels, medallions, trim, molding, recessed lights, and finials. Whether you’re looking for a simple grid pattern or want an elaborate, decorative ceiling with all the bells and whistles, there are plenty of options to choose from.</p></div>

Q: Do I need a permit to install a ceiling fan?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re replacing an old fixture with a ceiling fan, you usually won&rsquo;t need a permit, but if your electrician runs new wiring for the fixture, you likely will need a permit. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/do-i-really-need-building-permit.htm">Building permits</a> are necessary in most municipalities if you&rsquo;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&rsquo;ll probably need a permit. Your electrician should be able to let you know if you need one, and they&rsquo;ll typically file the paperwork for you.</p></div>

Q: When should I repair versus replace my ceiling fan?

• <div><p>Since the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-ceiling-fan-installation-cost.htm">cost of installing a ceiling fan</a> is <b>$250</b> for most homeowners, it might be beneficial to replace your existing fan if you are experiencing a significant repair issue, like a broken motor. However, for less expensive repairs, like a fan blade replacement, you&rsquo;ll likely spend less on the repair than a complete fan replacement. Of course, if you&rsquo;re looking for an upgrade or a new style fan, replacing it altogether is always an option. </p></div>

Q: Is it safe to wire my own ceiling fan?

• <div><p>If your home already has wires for a ceiling fan (and optional light kit), then it&rsquo;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&rsquo;s also highly recommended to use eye protection, rubberized gloves, and tools with rubber handles to keep yourself safe from electric shock.</p></div>
