"Chad did really good work with the exhaust fan that I had him install. He laid out all the work he was going to do, so I knew what I was getting for the price. Treated my home like his own, left everything like it was before he started the work. Highly recommended."

"Everything went perfectly from start to finish. We have high cathedral ceilings in our home that required staging to hang three large, heavy fixtures and it all went flawlessly! Chris and his team were professional, neat, and fairly priced. Highly recommend."

"I cannot say enough great things about Maverick Electric! From start to finish, the entire experience is always outstanding. We have worked with them on a few projects now and every time is a home run. They recently completed some work at our store in Salem, NH 10/10 job. Lee, Sean, and Jake were absolutely phenomenal to work with. They were professional, knowledgeable, punctual, and took tremendous pride in their work. It is clear that Lee the owners of Maverick Electric has built an incredible team of employees who truly care about their customers and the quality of their workmanship. They communicated clearly throughout the entire process, answered every question I had, and made sure everything was completed to perfection. The work was clean, efficient, and exceeded my expectations. It is rare these days to find a company that delivers this level of customer service and professionalism. If you are looking for an electrician you can trust completely, I highly recommend!"

"Todd built a beautiful new ¾ bathroom and minibar in our basement. The job involved all new plumbing and a ceiling fan vented to the outside. It was a challenging job because of a low ceiling and other problems, but Todd came up with innovative solutions for all of the hurdles we ran into. This is the second project that Todd has handled for us, and we feel very fortunate to have found him. His workmanship is outstanding, he listens patiently to our questions and preferences, and he goes out of his way to make sure we are happy. His fees are also very reasonable. Todd is a real professional and it’s a pleasure to work with him; I would strongly recommend him for any remodeling project."

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

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.

Though possible, installing a ceiling fan yourself requires electrical knowledge and confidence working with home wiring. Following the manufacturer's instructions carefully and observing safety precautions are crucial components of a DIY installation.

Ceiling fans are very often worth the investment because they improve comfort in your living space and help reduce utility bills. In the late spring and early fall—and even in the summer in some areas—homeowners with ceiling fans can often get away with open windows and fans, which can cut down on cooling bills and also reduce wear and tear on the HVAC system. Over time, ceiling fans can pay for themselves by saving you money on electric bills and air conditioner repair and maintenance.

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.

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.
