"Eric did a fantastic job installing our new bathroom fan. He was courteous, honest, and clearly knows his trade. The fan is quiet and works beautifully. It’s such a relief to find someone reliable and skilled. We will definitely use Angell Electrical again! Highly recommend."

"We had an absolutely amazing experience with this father-and-son team! They own and operate their electrical company full time and also do furniture assembly, and we could not have been happier with the job they did for us. They arrived at 9:30 in the morning and stayed until around 6:30 that evening, making sure every single piece of furniture was completely assembled before they left. Everything came out beautifully, and they were incredibly hardworking, efficient, careful, and thorough. On top of that, they were both so friendly, personable, and pleasant to have around all day. Their pricing was also fantastic — by far the best of all the quotes we received. We were so impressed with their work and felt they deserved even more than what they had quoted us, so we were happy to tip them extra. We would 100% recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, skilled, hardworking people who genuinely care about doing a great job. We will be keeping their number for any future projects!"

"Bob's company was able to trouble shoot a number of pesky electrical problems we had with fans and lighting. I am very pleased with the outcome. Even though I wasn't on-site during the work, good communication of the issues and progress."

"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!"

"Jesse was on time, accurate, and more than fairly priced. He removed, inspected, and reassembled a ceiling fan, did the same for the fixture's controller, replaced a bath exhaust fan, cleaned the bath fan ductwork, replaced the exhaust damper, and replaced an outdoor security light. He was thorough, efficient, and cleaned up after his work. I highly recommend him for any household electrical work."

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

Whether you can install a ceiling fan yourself depends on if you're replacing an existing fixture or installing one where no wiring exists. If you are replacing an existing fan, an experienced DIYer may be able to do the job, which can save on labor costs. This work typically doesn’t require a permit, but there’s always a safety risk when dealing with electrical components, so hiring a pro is still a good idea, especially if you aren't handy. Keep in mind you may need a special ladder for high or vaulted ceilings. However, if you are installing a new ceiling fan where there is no current fixture, you must hire a licensed electrician. In most areas, it is required by law that a professional runs new wiring and pulls the necessary permits. Attempting to install wiring yourself can be dangerous and a code violation.

The square footage of your room will dictate the correct ceiling fan blade size. For example: 

  • Rooms smaller than 75 square feet require a fan that is 29 to 36 inches.

  • Rooms up to 175 square feet require 42- to 48-inch fans.

  • Rooms up to 350 square feet require 52- to 56-inch fans.

  • Expansive spaces over 350 square feet need a fan larger than 60 inches.

The direction you want your ceiling fan to move in depends on the season you’re in. During summer, you want it to move counterclockwise to produce a cooling downdraft. During winter, you want it to move clockwise to circulate warm air throughout the room.

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. 

The more surface area that a ceiling fan blade has, the more effective it will be at producing airflow. Therefore, a longer ceiling fan blade is the better option if you’re looking for more wind. However, a longer blade will consume more energy than a shorter blade.
