Ceiling Fan Installation
A ceiling fan doesn’t just make an impact as a key fixture in a room–it improves air circulation, which can make heating and cooling more effective and efficient in just about any area of your home. Whether you have high, sloped, or low ceilings or need an integrated light fixture or remote controls, you’re sure to find a ceiling fan that’s the perfect fit for your application.
Adding a Ceiling Fan
Adding a ceiling fan to your home is a great way to increase comfort without compromising on style or convenience. If you have a light fixture in the place you’d like to install a fan, a few upgrades to support the weight of the fan and install appropriate switches are all that’s needed to make the conversion. If you’d like to add a fan in a spot with no existing wiring, the job is a bit more complex, but still a routine project for an experienced professional. Since new wiring and a switch are required to install a ceiling fan, it’s a job for an electrician.
Ceiling Fan Replacement
If you have a ceiling fan that’s due for replacement, installing a new model in the same location is a straightforward job for our professionals. In most cases, the existing wiring and switch can be used so you’ll be up and running with your new fan in record time. If installing a replacement fan calls for changes or upgrades to wiring, supports, or switches, the job may take a bit longer.
Whether you’re adding a ceiling fan in a new location or upgrading an existing fan to a new model, the job involves working with your home’s wiring. A licensed electrician can handle the job safely and will be sure to verify the power supply, switch, and supports are appropriate for your new ceiling fan.
Frequently Asked Questions
In ideal conditions with adequate wiring, switches and support in place, a typical ceiling fan replacement can be installed in less than one hour. Installing a new switch or upgrading wiring and supports may add another hour or so to the job. When adding a ceiling fan in a new location, running completely new wiring for a switch and fixture can take an entire day or more.
With a few variables affecting the difficulty of the project, it typically costs between $100 and $300 for labor to install a ceiling fan. Your electrician’s assessment of the project can help you plan and budget for your installation.
Yes. Mounting a ceiling fan on a high ceiling is an excellent way to improve air circulation. Many fans can be mounted on an angle, with or without a downrod, to accommodate high, sloped ceilings. Likewise, some fans are designed to leave adequate clearance for low ceilings, such as flushmount and ceiling hugger models, and many standard fans can be installed in low-clearance settings with appropriate hardware.
Most ceiling fans have comparable performance, whether they have four blades or five, though in some settings, a four-blade fan may be more efficient. The structure of the fan, the strength of the motor, and the length and angle of the blades all play a part in in a fan’s effectiveness, though. So when it comes down to it, the biggest differences may simply be aesthetics and your personal preference.
When choosing the right size for your ceiling fan, it’s important to consider the dimensions and height of the room where it will be installed. As a general guideline, a 36” fan is suited for a room in which the longest wall is less than 12’, while a 42”-48” fan is better for rooms with a length of 12’-15’. For larger rooms, you’ll need a fan at least 52” in diameter. For more guidance, check with your Ohio home repair company installer.
Ceiling fans are available in a limitless array of styles, designed to suit a number of settings. No matter the size and height of the room and whether it’s indoors or outside, you’re sure to find a ceiling fan that’s both attractive and effective with features available such as light kits and remote controls.
