"Great. The replacement fan I had purchased would have required Tom to cut a larger hole in the ceiling necessitating dry wall repair. Tom was able to find a new fan motor that fit in the existing hole avoiding the new to repair a larger hole. He was on time and professional and and competitive with regard to fist. I intend to use Tom again when I am in need of an electrician. "
"We have used Evergreen twice. We were having issues with the breaker blowing when we would take showers in our hallway bathroom. The only things on were the light and the fan so we weren't sure why it would blow from that. They checked the breaker and everything on the system and finally found that it was the light part of the exhaust fan (that didn't even have a light bulb in it). They gave us a military discount and I felt we got a good price. They were about an hour later than they said they would be, but were very nice and courteous when they showed up and did a great job. So when we were having an issue with another circuit a week later they came out and found a burned outlet in our dining room and replaced it for us. Again, they were about an hour later than they said they would be, but were very professional and courteous and were able to complete the work quickly. They gave us a military discount again and I think we got a great price for a great job done. We were happy with Evergreen and will use them for any future electrician needs."

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.
Yes, ceiling fans come with a few other features that help with function, style, and convenience. Multi-speed fans can give you specialized control over the airflow. Consider getting one with an integrated light to save ceiling space. Some ceiling fans come with a remote control that enables you to change direction without climbing a ladder. Of course, you can also consider installing a wall switch to enjoy that convenience.
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.
Keeping dust off fans can keep them working optimally and help keep dust mites or bacteria from building up. Dust fans weekly with a duster, microfiber cloth, old pillowcase, or vacuum attachment. You can also try spraying a clean fan with a store-bought dust-repellent product or making a DIY dust-repellent with water and a small amount of liquid fabric softener mixed in.
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.
