Ceiling fan installation Thunder Bay ON
What is the purpose of a ceiling fan? A: The image may conjure retro houses in the latter part of the 20th century, but remember, everything old is new again, and plus, ceiling fans have a practical use - circulating air around the room which on a hot summer day, distributes the heat and allows the blending of different temperatures of air, allowing for a more comfortable environment and less dependence on the more power-demanding air conditioner. Is a 3 or 4 blade fan better? A: The difference in amount of air circulated in 3, 4 or 5 blade fans are negligible. So your decision should be based on the style or design, and on the slightly higher power consumption of higher blade number fans. |

Are ceiling fans hard to install?
A: This depends on how handy you are, but some things need to be taken into consideration such as:
Do you need an electrician to install a ceiling fan?
A: Similar to the question above, we advise that yes, you would need an insured and licensed electrician to perform this job in the name of correct attachment and safety.
Can I install a ceiling fan where a light fixture is?
A: Likely yes since the light fixture’s existing wiring is in place. However, the existing light’s electrical box is likely not rated to hold the much heavier ceiling light apparatus, and therefore needs to be replaced with a suitable one for the fan.
What is the ceiling fan installation cost?
A: The cost can vary widely depending on the price of the ceiling fan and whether electrical wiring is needed. For parts and labour, it can range from $200 all the way to $500+. Consult with our expert electricians to get an accurate estimate based on your specific situation.
Do I need an electrician to install a bathroom exhaust fan?
A: A bathroom exhaust fan installation can be handled by a qualified electrical contractor as it involves some wiring that is a bit too complex for the average homeowner. The exhaust air must be redirected to the outdoors due to mold and mildew concerns, and the job may be more complex if it’s a first floor bathroom of a multi-story home. The job takes about 3-4 hours and can cost roughly $300 or more.
