Q: How do I know which type of ceiling fan to get?

• <div><p>There are many <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-ceiling-fans-cool-down-your-home.htm">types of ceiling fans</a>, 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.</p><p>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&rsquo;ll need a large ceiling fan with a heavy-duty motor to get adequate air circulation.</p></div>

Q: When should I repair versus replace my ceiling fan?

• <div><p>Since the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-ceiling-fan-installation-cost.htm">cost of installing a ceiling fan</a> is <b>$250</b> for most homeowners, it might be beneficial to replace your existing fan if you are experiencing a significant repair issue, like a broken motor. However, for less expensive repairs, like a fan blade replacement, you&rsquo;ll likely spend less on the repair than a complete fan replacement. Of course, if you&rsquo;re looking for an upgrade or a new style fan, replacing it altogether is always an option. </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: How long does fan installation take?

• <div><p>A typical fan installation takes between two and six hours. The exact timeframe can be influenced by factors such as the home's structure, existing electrical characteristics, ease of attic access, and whether complex wiring or additional attic ventilation work is required.</p></div>

Q: How do you remove a ceiling fan without visible screws?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re removing a ceiling fan without visible screws, start by locating the fan canopy&mdash;a round cover placed above the fan blades and motor. There should be a thin ring that can be turned counterclockwise to remove the canopy and reveal the screws. After unscrewing the fan, you can disconnect the wires and remove the entire fan from the mounting hardware. For safety, make sure the fan switch is turned off before you remove the canopy. It may be easier to remove the fan blades first, too.</p></div>

"Very good! Chris called me almost immediately after I registered on Angie's List. I had already been told by my regular HVAC service tech that a replacement unit would cost about $7000 if paid in cash or offered me a financing/service contract for 10 years at $140+ a month!! Come on guys! Chris with B&B came by the next day (Monday), we talked and he offered to replace my current Goodman units with slightly better rated ones for $4500 and would do it the next day! He and his assistance were done in under the 3 hours the next day that Chris said it would take. Very happy with the products and the services so far!! He even honored the $100 coupon that was on your site."

Ceiling Fans questions, answered by experts

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.
