Ceiling Fan Tips

Having properly functioning ceiling fans can significantly enhance your home’s comfort and energy efficiency. When you’re ready to go shopping for your ceiling fan, keep this advice in mind.

  • Choose the right fan size: For optimal airflow, you need to choose the right fan size for your room. For a small bedroom or office, you should use a fan with a blade span of 29 to 36 inches. For larger rooms like an open-concept space, you should get a fan with a blade span between 52 and 72 inches.
  • Factor in the ceiling height: For efficient airflow circulation, you should install the fan so it’s about 8 to 9 feet from the floor. If you have a low ceiling, you consider getting a “hugger” fan that’s installed as close to the ceiling as possible.

Ceiling Fan Installation & Repair FAQs

Mr. Handyman has been helping homeowners repair, maintain, and enhance their spaces for over 25 years! We are the one-stop solution for everything on your to-do list, including answering your questions about home repairs, maintenance, and improvements. Here are answers to some of your most frequently asked questions about our ceiling fan repair and installation services.

How often should I inspect my ceiling fans for potential repairs?

We recommend inspecting your ceiling fans every six to 12 months. If you use them more frequently, you might want to examine them every three to six months just to ensure they’re working correctly and safely. Routine inspections can help identify minor problems with your fans before they become major (and more expensive) problems.

What are common signs that indicate my ceiling fans need repairs?

Common signs you need a ceiling fan repair include:

  • Unusual noises (think humming, clicking, or grinding)
  • Wobbly blades
  • Unresponsiveness
  • Unable to switch speeds
  • Not turning on

If you experience any of these issues, refrain from using your fan until it’s repaired.

Is it possible to install or repair ceiling fans myself, or should I call professionals?

Yes, but while you can install or repair a ceiling fan yourself, we recommend you call a service professional near you. Installing the fan can be dangerous if you don’t have electrical knowledge and experience. You could be shocked or injured, and you also risk falling.

Here are some tasks you can do on your own:

  • Cleaning the fan blades
  • Tightening loose screws
  • Replacing the lightbulbs
  • Changing the direction of the fans

You should call a professional if you need:

  • Electrical work
  • Ceiling fan replacements
  • Motor or wiring repairs
  • Installing brand-new fans

How long does a typical ceiling fan installation take?

On average, ceiling fan installation takes a trained service professional anywhere from one to three hours. It’ll really depend on how complex the installation is, the type of fan being installed, and whether there’s existing wiring in that spot on the ceiling.

What materials are best for ceiling fans?

The best material for your ceiling fan depends on where you’d like to install it. Some of the most popular fans are made of plastic, timber, wood, or metal. They usually come in three, four, or five-blade configurations. Indoor fans might want to choose a wooden or plastic blade to get a warm, classic look inside your home. Metal blades are more suited for outdoor installation or in an area that experiences a lot of moisture, like your bathroom.

Should I repair or replace my ceiling fan?

If you notice these signs, it might be time for a ceiling fan repair:

  • Wobbling fan
  • The pull cord isn’t working
  • Slower than usual
  • Not cooling your home properly

However, here are some signs it might be better to replace a fan:

  • Won’t turn on
  • The fan makes loud noises
  • Lower energy efficiency
  • Older fan
  • Dying motor
