What size fan do you need?

• <div><p>Fan power is measured by CFM, or cubic feet per minute. For every 1,000 feet of square footage in your attic, you need a minimum of 700 CFM. Steeper roofs may need larger fans or about 840 CFM. You can figure <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/does-your-home-need-more-attic-ventilation.htm">the size of attic fan you need</a> by multiplying the square footage of your attic floor by 0.7. (multiply by 1.2 for a steep roof and 1.15 for a dark roof). That number is the CFM required for your fan to run efficiently.</p></div>

What should I add to my coffered ceiling?

• <div><p>Coffered ceilings often come with additional embellishments and accessories, including tin panels, medallions, trim, molding, recessed lights, and finials. Whether you’re looking for a simple grid pattern or want an elaborate, decorative ceiling with all the bells and whistles, there are plenty of options to choose from.</p></div>

Q: Where is the sound coming from?

• <div><p>Identifying the source of noises is your first step to soundproofing a room without overspending. Generally, sound comes from inside or outside of the house. Inside noises include creaking floors, living noises like TVs in the living room, cooking sounds, or kids being kids. External noises generally include incremental weather, disturbing neighbors, and street traffic. Inside noises require you to soundproof floors, ceilings, and doors, whereas outside noises may require you to soundproof your attic, windows, and walls facing the streets.</p></div>

Q: Is it safe to wire my own ceiling fan?

• <div><p>If your home already has wires for a ceiling fan (and optional light kit), then it&rsquo;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&rsquo;s also highly recommended to use eye protection, rubberized gloves, and tools with rubber handles to keep yourself safe from electric shock.</p></div>

Q: What color wires go together for a ceiling fan?

• <div><p>If the fan doesn&rsquo;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&rsquo;s red wire to the light&rsquo;s black wire and the ceiling&rsquo;s black wire to the fan&rsquo;s black wire. </p></div>

Our air conditioner s fan went out! We got a quote to replace it and it was high! We wanted a second opinion so we called Anytime. They called when they said they would and came by. They were able to replace the part for half the price of the first quote. We are very pleased with their work.
