"From the initial estimate to the finished project, CJ, Jacob, and Zack were very professional. CJ did the estimate and explained all in detail. When the installers arrived, they explained how they would approach the work, and when they needed to shut off the power they would let me know. As each fan/light combo was finished they demonstrated it and asked if I had any questions. Once all fan/lights and new lights were installed they walked me through the project to make sure i was satisfied."

"I was stood up by another handyman company and needed to find someone else to install my ceiling fans and a porch light fixture. So, I went on line and Angi's site processed my needs and I started getting calls. Mac the Handyman called almost immediately and I scheduled the job which was done the next afternoon. Wow, Mac was very friendly, honest, knowledgeable, clean and just awesome. I am very satisfied with the work and will keep Mac for my handyman needs. Thank you. Mary Ellen S."

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

The direction your ceiling fan spins helps create comfortable airflow in your home and can also help cut down on energy costs. 

During summer, your ceiling fan should spin counterclockwise. This will push cooler air downward in a column and help lower your room’s air temperature. In the winter, set your ceiling fan to spin clockwise and at the lowest speed setting. This will pull cool air upwards, displacing the warm air that pools towards the top of your ceiling and bringing it down towards the floor.

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.

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.

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.

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.
