"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."

"Chris at ARS Electric was both knowledgeable and friendly. He and his coworker were able to come for my small bathroom exhaust fan installation job the day after I inquired on Home Advisor. Accessibility to contractors these days is never that fast. I highly recommend the services if ARS Electric."

"The RYB team delivered an excellent job for a fair price putting in a new circuit. upgrading the panel and wiring a heat-pump installation for me. They were neat, honest and respectful; answered my questions, explained what they were doing and why. They arrived when they said they would, worked hard all day in my nasty basement. And the Electrical Final Inspection... 5 Stars. Thanks"

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.

There are many types of ceiling fans, from self-automated smart ceiling fans to outdoor ceiling fans that provide additional comfort to your patio. What you choose all comes down to function and personal taste.

Consider your ceiling height when selecting a ceiling fan. Rooms with ceilings under eight feet high will do well with low-profile ceiling fans, also known as flush-mount or hugger ceiling fans. If your home has cathedral ceilings or ceilings between 10 and 25 feet high, you’ll need a large ceiling fan with a heavy-duty motor to get adequate air circulation.

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.

Hiring an electrician to install a new ceiling fan may be the best course of action. Installing a ceiling fan requires basic electrical and mechanical knowledge. It also requires holding it up with one hand and in an awkward position, making the installation even more difficult. If you’re uncomfortable with these circumstances, your best bet is to hire a professional.

If you’re removing a ceiling fan without visible screws, start by locating the fan canopy—a round cover placed above the fan blades and motor. There should be a thin ring that can be turned counterclockwise to remove the canopy and reveal the screws. After unscrewing the fan, you can disconnect the wires and remove the entire fan from the mounting hardware. For safety, make sure the fan switch is turned off before you remove the canopy. It may be easier to remove the fan blades first, too.
