Frequently asked questions
Can ceiling fans be installed on any ceiling?
While most ceilings can support fans, the installation method varies based on your ceiling type and structure. We can install fans on standard joists, cathedral ceilings, concrete ceilings, and even in locations without existing wiring. During our assessment, we'll determine the appropriate mounting method and whether structural reinforcement is needed for heavier models.
Will a ceiling fan work with my existing wiring and switches?
In many cases, yes. If you're replacing an existing light fixture, we can often use the existing wiring. However, for optimal functionality, we may recommend adding dedicated switches for fan speed and light control. For new installations, we'll run appropriate wiring and ensure all electrical work meets Australian standards.
How do I know what size ceiling fan I need?
Fan size should be proportionate to your room dimensions. As a general rule, rooms under 10m² work best with fans up to 120cm in diameter, while larger spaces need fans 130-150cm or wider. During our consultation, we'll assess your room size, ceiling height, and usage patterns to recommend the optimal fan size and placement for efficient air circulation.
Can you install ceiling fans with lights?
Absolutely! Many of our ceiling fans come with integrated light kits, or we can install compatible lighting solutions with your fan. We offer options ranging from simple single lights to multi-bulb arrays with dimming capabilities and even smart lighting features that can be controlled via remote or smartphone.
How long does installation take, and will it make a mess?
Most ceiling fan installations take 1-3 hours per fan, depending on the complexity and whether new wiring is required. We take great care to protect your home during installation, using drop cloths and cleaning up thoroughly afterward. Our electricians work efficiently and professionally, minimizing disruption to your daily routine.
