Customers say: Quick response

"My project was fairly straightforward -- move a couple of ceiling fans, move a couple of lights, install a couple of switches and move an intercom panel. Nic did great work, showed up when scheduled, and, most importantly, cleaned up exceptionally. A great value for the quality of work -- beginning to end."

"I can't say enough about the team at Cotti-Johnson. From my scheduling with Mel, to the estimate with Ryan and finally, the install crew of Gil, Luis and Nick. Everyone was so professional, courteous and time-considerate. Gil even took extra time to mop my floor to ensure that they left no trace of working in my home! I would recommend this team in a heartbeat."

"We had been looking for an electrician for several months to put in recessed lighting and having an extremely difficult time. It was the 2nd inquiry going through Angi’s List when Dennis quickly responded and provided us with a quote. We are so thrilled that we went with Par Homes Services. He was extremely professional, knowledgeable and courteous throughout the entire process and completed the work (6 recessed lights in the living room) within a short period of time. The living room looks amazing and all for a reasonable price. We were also delighted to hear that the company can also do other types of residential work. It was a wonderful experience with no stress and we will definitely recommend them for residential work. Thank you Dennis and Par Homes Services Services!"

"Found the problem right away. Recommended getting a new ceiling fan because the connection between the remote and the fan was not working properly. Should get a fan with pull cords/chains."

"This is my 3rd (or 4th?) experience with Northern Lights Electric, and it certainly won't be my last. They arrived on time (7am), worked quickly and efficiently, and were done much sooner than I expected. They also cleaned up when they were done. Steven was also very willing to answer questions and explain some things, as well as give me information on some potential future services I was considering. I just requested an appointment for a ceiling fan installation and recessed lighting. Definitely my go-to for any electrical issues."

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

If you’re replacing an old fixture with a ceiling fan, you usually won’t need a permit, but if your electrician runs new wiring for the fixture, you likely will need a permit. Building permits are necessary in most municipalities if you’re making changes to your electrical system, so even if you have partial wiring run to the area and need new wiring installed for added functionality, you’ll probably need a permit. Your electrician should be able to let you know if you need one, and they’ll typically file the paperwork for you.

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. 

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.

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.

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.
