Ceiling Fan Installation in Casselberry

Often, if the ceiling box is rated for fans and properly supported. Fans are heavier than most light fixtures and they vibrate, so a regular light box can loosen over time. The electrician checks the box and the framing above it and installs a fan-rated brace box if needed. If you want separate wall control of the light and the fan, the switch wiring may need an extra conductor.

Choose a damp-rated fan for covered areas protected from direct rain, and a wet-rated fan where rain or spray can reach it. The rating is on the box and the fan’s label. Outdoor fans also need a properly sealed box and weather-resistant controls. Indoor fans used outside rust and fail quickly in Central Florida’s humidity.

Many electricians install customer-supplied fans. Tell them the model in advance so they can check its weight, mounting and controls. Some don’t warranty fixtures they didn’t supply, so ask how the warranty works.
