Frequently asked questions
Can you install a ceiling fan where there is only a light fixture?
Yes. We reinforce the ceiling box to support the fan weight and ensure the wiring can handle the fan motor. If your current box is light-fixture-only rated, we replace it with a fan-rated box.
How long does a ceiling fan installation take?
A straightforward replacement takes about one to two hours. New installations where wiring needs to be run typically take two to four hours depending on accessibility.
Do you install fans on vaulted ceilings?
Yes. We use angled mounting kits and extended downrods designed for vaulted and sloped ceilings. The fan is mounted securely and balanced properly regardless of ceiling angle.
