Ceiling Fan Installation
Need safe, code-compliant ceiling fan installation with clean workmanship? Wavelength Electric LLC handles the electrical repair behind the fan—rated boxes, wiring, switching, and balancing—so your new fan runs quiet, efficient, and wobble-free. From replacing a light fixture to adding a fan with new wiring and controls, we do it right the first time.
When to Call for Installation or Repair
- Existing light box isn’t fan-rated (wobbles or loosens over time)
- No power at the ceiling location or switch won’t control the fan/light separately
- Fan hums, wobbles, or trips the breaker after DIY wiring
- You’re adding a fan to a room without overhead power
- Sloped or high ceilings need a downrod, brace, or special canopy
- Old fan/light combo draws too much load for the circuit
- Remote receiver failed or pull-chain switch broke
What’s Included in a Code-Compliant Install
- Safety check & load calculation for the branch circuit and panel/li>
- Fan-rated support: UL-listed brace/box anchored to structure (no plastic light boxes)
- Correct wiring & terminations to manufacturer specs (copper, proper gauge)
- Switching options: single-pole, fan/light split, 3-way, or smart wall control
- Grounding/bonding verification and AFCI/GFCI protection where required
- Balancing & testing for quiet operation and steady airflow
- Labeling & documentation plus permit/inspection when applicable
- Clean finish: tidy ceiling patching around canopy as needed, work area cleanup
Popular Options & Upgrades
Controls
- Wall dimmer + fan speed control (separate or combo
- Smart controls (Caséta, Kasa, etc.), scenes, and app/voice integration
- Remote receiver replacements for older fans
- Energy-efficient, high-CFM models sized to the room (see tips below)
- Damp/wet-rated fans for bathrooms, porches, patios
- Low-profile (hugger) fans for 8' ceilings; downrods for 9–20'+ ceilings
- Sloped-ceiling kits and canopies up to manufacturer pitch limits
- New ceiling power with switched leg(s) and neutral
- Split-switching to control fan and light separately
- Box relocation to center the fan in the room
Pro Recommendations (Save These)
- Match fan to room size: 100 sq ft → 36–44"
- Target airflow: Look for high CFM and multiple speed settings for comfort without noise.
- Ceiling height: Keep blades ~8–9 ft above the floor; add a downrod for taller ceilings
- Rated box only: A fan must attach to a fan-rated box/brace, not a light-only box
- Bathrooms/porches: Choose damp/wet-rated fans; standard fans will fail early.
- Controls: If you have LED lamps in the light kit, use LED-compatible dimmers to avoid flicker.
100–250 sq ft → 48–56"
250 sq ft → 60–72"+ or dual fans
