"They called me shortly after I had posted the request for help. They came to the house when it was snowing outside and worked on the problem until it got to a point where it required them to return the next day. The office staff kept in touch with us all through the process by keeping us informed of their status and when to expect them to arrive. They came and worked until the problem was solved. They were friendly and very, very professional. I would recommend these guys to anybody because of the work that they did. Awesome, awesome experience. We're going to have the HVAC guy come back when the weather breaks to get a checkup of the HVAC system in the house. We're just confident that it's going to be done right."

"I called Scotty when I ordered a new fan last week and we agreed I would call him when It arrived at Lowes. It came a day later than promised and I had called Scotty to let him know. When I called at noon today to say it had arrived, I assumed he could not come until tomorrow or later. As it turned out, his schedule had changed and he and his brother were there within the hour. They were courteous, professional, respected my property, and gave me the advertised 5% discount. They answered my questions. I would not hesitate to use their services in the future or to recommend them to others.

"

Contractor contacted me within several hours of initial call.  Following day, electrician came by and provided estimates based on the features of the fan we opted to use.  Unfortunately, this pricing came in a bit higher then I was expecting.  Several days later I came across a fan in a local retailer that met all my needs and was at an attractive sale price.  I re-contacted Cole Electric and asked if they would adjust their quote to cover just their labor and other materials needed to do the job.  They did this, readjusted their quote and performed the work a day later.

As before, the end result was excellent customer service, a willingness to work with the customer and a clean professional installation.  I was very satisfied.

"The service was great. Jomoniq an Jeff arrived at the appointed time and went right to work. They were professional and responsive. Very easy to work with. One of the ceiling fans was located in a room with a 20" ceiling. It was a tough install and they did a great job. I'd recommend them to anyone needing electrical service and certainly use them again myself.

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

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.

Ceiling fans can be a great way to cool your home without the expensive utility bill of running an air conditioner. Plus, ceiling fans can sometimes run in both directions, pushing hot air down in winter and pulling cold air up in summer. With that said, air conditioning might be the only thing that helps if you live in a very warm climate.

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 the size of attic fan you need 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.

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.
