With a wide variety of styles to choose from, it may take you a while to decide on one that's right for your space. Once you've made your decision, pick it up or have it delivered to your home, and give our team a call to schedule your North Oklahoma City ceiling fan installation.

Our Process for Ceiling Fan Installation in OKC

Inspection

The first part of any installation process starts with an inspection. Even if you have an existing fan in place, we need to know that there are no issues with your ceiling joists, the drywall around your fan, or the electrical wires. In many cases, we find damaged drywall with issues such as cracks and water damage, and these will need to be repaired before we can install your fan.

Ideally, you will call us to inspect the area where you wish to install your ceiling fan before your actual service day. Our initial inspection will take note of any damage and ensure you get the repair services you need (if any) before the date of your installation. If we are inspecting your property for the first time on your installation day and everything is in good shape, we will proceed with taking measurements.

Measurement

Next, your handyman will measure your ceiling height. If the height exceeds nine feet, or if you have an angled ceiling, we'll need to install a downrod to ensure maximum efficiency and safety. Fans installed too high in a room with high ceilings will not give you the airflow you want. A downrod will lower the height of the fan so that you receive better air circulation; plus, it will help stabilize your fan so that it doesn't wobble when at high speed. There's nothing worse than an annoying, noisy fan when you're trying to relax. In addition, stabilizing your fan with a downrod will help prevent further loosening and damage.

Installation

Ceiling fan hanging varies slightly if you already have an existing fan in place versus if you don't. The entire process of installation is easy when you have an existing ceiling lamp in place that you would like to convert. However, if you don’t have a ceiling fan wiring cable in place, some drilling is required so your service professional can install a ceiling fan-rated electrical box that will house your future unit.

Our experts can install a ceiling fan in any room of your home, as well as outdoor covered patio spaces. We know the difference that a quality fan can make in the heat of the North Oklahoma City summer and the coolness of the winter, and we offer this service to ensure your needs are met year-round.

Cleanup

Some ceiling fan installations can get messy. If you have popcorn ceilings or require drywall repair on your ceiling, some debris may have fallen onto your floor, and large sections of drywall may have been removed. Don't worry, we're pros in the trade, and that means we will always respect your home. We'll be sure to remove and clean up any mess we make during the installation process of your ceiling fans in OKC.

For the best outcome of our ceiling fan installations, we always recommend scheduling an in-home consultation appointment, which allows our service technicians to carefully inspect your space and recommend the best product for your needs. This is particularly helpful if you have angled ceilings, any signs of drywall damage, or do not know which model of fan will work best for your space.

North Oklahoma City Ceiling Fan Installations FAQs

How Do I Save Energy Costs With North Oklahoma City Ceiling Fan Installation?

North Oklahoma City homeowners who want to better manage their HVAC system’s energy efficiency will benefit a lot from a ceiling fan. If you operate an air conditioning system, set your fan blades counterclockwise to better distribute cooled AC air. This also allows you to turn down your AC a little to reduce energy consumption. Alternatively, set the blade rotation in reverse (clockwise) during the wintertime to reduce heat transfer. Heated furnace air tends to rise very quickly, but with a high-quality ceiling fan installation in Oklahoma City, homeowners will get more out of the heat. And this is how you can save up to 10% on your energy bills.

Does A Ceiling Fan Improve Air Circulation?

It’s important to note that a ceiling fan only redistributes existing air in the room, whether it’s cooled AC air or heated furnace air. It moves and circulates air, and thus, it improves airflow. You may call it an artificial breeze, and depending on the type you have, you can even create a wind chill effect (i.e., with a 3-blade unit), so it has different functions to improve air circulation and can also temporarily raise or lower the room temperature.

Is a 3 or 5 Blade Ceiling Fan Better?

When you wonder which type of fan to install during your North Oklahoma City ceiling fan installation, your choice will depend on various factors. A 3-blade unit may seem neat and less cluttered. But its motor capabilities also create less drag, which means it can be a lot louder than other types. However, these units are also able to create a wind chill effect.

On the other hand, 4- or 5-blade units like the one in the image below are less noisy, but they create more drag on the motor, so they distribute air a lot slower. This is good if you seek a more balanced airflow. But as far as blade assembly is concerned, it’s really a matter of preference. A young professional who doesn’t mind cool temperatures will certainly get more out of a 3-blade, whereas a standard family home may benefit more from a 4- or 5-blade.
