Ceiling Fan Installation

If you’re a long-time Westchester County, NY resident, you know that the summers can be brutally hot. While many homeowners rely on air conditioning systems to keep their homes cool, it can come at a high cost in the form of soaring electric bills. A professional ceiling fan installation from Lippolis Electric can increase your home’s comfort — and help keep your energy costs under control.

 

What Are the Benefits of a Ceiling Fan Installation?

A properly installed ceiling fan will distribute air evenly throughout a room or area of your home. You can use a fan with an air conditioning system to ensure the cooled air blankets the entire room. This can decrease dependence on your A/C unit and reduce energy consumption. For every degree you raise your A/C thermostat, you can lower your cooling costs from three to eight percent. You can also use a ceiling fan in place of air conditioning in some cases, which can cut your electric bills even more. Other benefits include:

  • Reducing your heating costs in winter: Ceiling fans don’t just keep a home cool. By setting them to operate in reverse, you can push rising heated air downward from your ceiling, creating a warmer home and reducing your dependence on your furnace.
  • Home lighting: Many ceiling fans are equipped with overhead lights, adding illumination to a room
  • Aesthetic appeal: These days, ceiling fans come in a wide range of beautiful designs and styles, enabling you to enhance your home’s décor

A Ceiling Fan Installation Can Be a Challenging DIY Project

A ceiling fan can be difficult to install, especially if you’re a first-timer. If there is no preexisting fixture in the room, you must make a place to hang the fan. Besides mounting the fan securely — the last thing you want is a wobbly fan or one that comes crashing to the floor — you’ll have to run new electrical wiring.

Many do-it-yourselfers quickly discover this is not as easy as it may seem. And if the fan includes a light fixture, you’ll need to be sure the circuit can accommodate both the fan and light to prevent an overload. If you don’t know what you’re doing, your fan might not work properly, and you could put your safety at risk.
