"A job well done despite the challenges of reach and access. The exhaust fan was 14 feet high and Manny had to get to it from the attic as well as from the bathroom to replace it. The new housing was a bit larger so it involved cutting a bit of the ceiling as well. All was accomplished very neatly in about two hours. Will definitely recommend and hire again!!!"

"Hargrove Home Improvement showed up exactly when promised and got to work right away.  The old roof was stripped off down to the bare wood and new felt and shingles were installed.  The job was completed in just over 2 days, including an excellent job of clean up. We also had some interior  damage to a ceiling that James and Romey took care of on the following Saturday for a very reasonable price.  The roof looks fantastic, we are very happy with the outcome.  We will not hesitate to use Hargrove Home Improvement  for any repair or remodeling in the future. "

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

Essential tools for ceiling fan installation include a ladder, screwdriver, pliers, wire strippers, and a circuit tester. If the ceiling is angled or features unique configurations, ensure the availability of a compatible mounting bracket.

To determine if your ceiling box can support a fan, you must check if it is specifically fan-rated. Manufacturers are required to indicate this on the box itself. You may need to remove the existing light fixture to look inside the ceiling box for an inscription stating it is rated for fan use. If you do not see this confirmation, the box is likely not strong enough and must be replaced with a fan-rated junction box. For a proper and safe installation, you should also use a fan brace to secure the new box between the ceiling joists, which provides the necessary support for the fan's weight and motion.

If the fan doesn’t have a switch, connect the white wire from the ceiling to the white wire from the fan; connect the green wire to the ground wire; connect both black wires; and connect both blue wires. If yours has a switch, the white and green wires are connected the same way. However, connect the ceiling’s red wire to the light’s black wire and the ceiling’s black wire to the fan’s black wire. 

Many ceiling fan-rated electrical boxes tend to be made of metal. However, some electrical boxes may also be made of heavy-duty plastic that is reinforced with metal support structures. It may also have an attachment that connects directly to a ceiling joist. If you are ever ensure, consult with a licensed professional to get their insight on best practices and whether the installation is a safe one.

For a 12x12 room, a fan between 36" and 50" will work, as it falls in the range for spaces up to 144 square feet. These size fans provide adequate air circulation and ensure a comfortable environment without being overpowering. Even better, they come in a broad range of styles, offering aesthetics and functionality, making them suitable choices for maintaining an ideal room temperature and enhancing overall comfort.
