"Great group of people to work with. They completely rewired my old 1970's house including new breaker panel, major appliance plugs, and added can lights and ceiling fans as well. They came through in every way. I would definitely recommend them for any electrical job."

"He was awesome. He was worried that the ceiling fan was "wobbling" due to ceiling imperfections. Neither my husband nor I could see a thing. I have 2 more ceiling fans that need to be replaced. I can't hold them up myself and I will call him to replace them.

"It was amazing !! Mike and Tylor arrived around 9:30 and quickly started on the Flood lights ,Mike mentioned that he needed to install electrical boxes on the flood lights overlooked by the previous home owners and there would be an additional charge per box , then he waited until I approved the charge, then jumped on the ceiling fan, installed lights on the front porch,then on to the garage . they were done by 1;00 !!! They were very professional, polite and left no mess anywhere on my property !! If I run into another problem with my electricity I will ALWAYS call them first !!!"

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Essential tools for ceiling fan installation include a ladder, screwdriver, pliers, wire strippers, and a circuit tester. If the ceiling is angled or features unique configurations, ensure the availability of a compatible mounting bracket.

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 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.
