Ceiling Fans

Recently, I had the pleasure of installing a beautiful new ceiling fan for a delightful family right here in Minneapolis. This job got me thinking about some important points regarding these household essentials that I'd like to share with you. When considering the installation of a new ceiling fan, here are a few key points to keep in mind:

  • Energy Efficiency: Ceiling fans are great for reducing energy costs by effectively circulating air, which means less reliance on your air conditioning.

  • Style and Design: Make sure to choose a fan that complements your home decor and fits the size of your room. With a variety of stylish options available, you're sure to find one that matches your aesthetic.

  • Functionality: Look for features like remote control, adjustable speeds, and reversible blades for year-round comfort and convenience.

  • Professional Installation: While DIY might be tempting, enlisting the expertise of a licensed electrician ensures not only safety but also proper wiring. For instance, a fan-rated electrical box is required by code when replacing a light fixture with a fan. This specialized box securely anchors the fan, supporting its weight and movement—a crucial detail often overlooked.

Big thanks to the Minneapolis family for letting me handle your electrical needs! If anyone else is interested in upgrading their home with a new ceiling fan or needs any electrical work done, feel free to reach out. I'm here to help!
