"Roy provided professional service throughout my projects. He installed a ceiling fan in the bedroom and overhead lights in the living room. He ensured that each were safely mounted and upgraded the switches for my convenience. He also gave me great advice on the purchase of a new air/heating unit, which I took and am happy with this outside purchase. I highly recommend Roy, and will use his services again."

"Very friendly, professional, personable, and neat brothers. Jesse and Ryan installed recess lighting, added a new ceiling fan and switched out an old fan for a new one, (even played with my two dogs). Throughly cleaned up and moved all of my furniture back into place. My home looked as if these guys were never in my home. Awesome, Highly recommend, and will be calling soon for an outside project. **Great Pricing!!"

"Day 1 of hiring Peter I knew I made the right decision. He was responsive and very helpful in navigating what I would need to help complete the project. He provided recommendations for vendors and worked alongside me as a partner in completing our job. He communicated well and made it easy for me to understand when problems arose. Both Peter and Bob made great suggestions while they were completing the work- I felt like I was truly a part of the design process. We love our new bathroom and have received so many compliments on the work. Not to mention my two year old daughter regularly walks into the new bathroom and says “Peter Bob did this”, points and smiles. I am looking forward to working with Peter again for future projects in my home."

"After getting 3 estimates for work i needed done, i chose Scholz Electric. At the estimate appointment, he noticed that there was water in the electrical panel in the basement. He did a quick temporary fix until he could come back to do the work. Douglas arrived ontime and started work right away. He was very professional and polite. After the work was complete, I had a problem with one of the breakers tripping if I used the cable and washing machine at the same time. I left him a message and he came early the next morning to take care of it. I would highly recommned them and will call Doug again if I need electrical work done again."

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

In short, no. You can use the square footage range chart in this article to determine the right size ceiling fan for both indoor and outdoor spaces. However, weather elements can damage types of ceiling fans that aren't designed for outdoor use, so your ceiling fan should be weather-resistant if you plan to install it outside.

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.

Yes, you can install a ceiling fan where a standard light fixture is, as the electrical wiring is often similar and may not need to be replaced. The most important step is to ensure the ceiling can support the fan's weight and motion. You will need to replace the existing light fixture's electrical box with a fan-rated electrical box, which is specifically designed to handle the extra weight and vibration. These boxes will be labeled as suitable for ceiling fan support and will indicate the maximum weight they can hold. Before you begin, also consider if you need an extension rod for a high ceiling or a special mount for an angled ceiling.

There are several telltale signs to let you know that your ceiling fan needs servicing or replacement. For instance, if it’s wobbling, rotating too slowly, or if your ceiling fan is making noise such as squeaks, buzzes, and thumps, it’s time to have it looked at by a professional. Not only may it indicate a potential problem with the fan itself, but it could also signal a red flag that it’s improperly assembled or there’s an issue with the wiring.

The most efficient ceiling fan height is 8 to 9 feet from the floor to the fan blades. For ceilings higher than 9 feet, a downrod can be used to lower the fan to the optimal height. This positioning ensures adequate air circulation and maximizes the cooling effect. Remember, fans should be installed at least 7 feet above the floor for safety.
