What We Offer
Ceiling Fan Installation and Replacement
Our expert electricians handle all types of ceiling fan installations, from basic single-speed models to sophisticated smart fans with remote controls and variable speed settings. We ensure proper mounting to support the fan’s weight and vibration, install appropriate electrical boxes rated for fan use, and verify all wiring connections meet current electrical codes. Whether you’re replacing an existing light fixture or installing a fan in a new location, we handle the complete electrical work including running new circuits when necessary.
Bathroom and Kitchen Exhaust Fan Installation
Proper ventilation is crucial for preventing moisture damage, mold growth, and poor indoor air quality. We install high-quality exhaust fans in bathrooms, kitchens, and laundry rooms, ensuring adequate CFM ratings for your space size. Our installations include proper ductwork routing to the exterior, weatherproof exhaust vents, and humidity sensors or timers for automated operation. We also retrofit older homes with modern, energy-efficient exhaust fans that operate quietly while providing superior ventilation.
Whole House Fan Systems
For homeowners looking to reduce cooling costs and improve natural ventilation, we install whole house fan systems that draw cool evening air through your home while exhausting hot air through the attic. These powerful systems can significantly reduce your reliance on air conditioning during moderate weather. Our installations include proper attic ventilation assessment, structural mounting, electrical connections, and timer controls for convenient operation.
Industrial and Commercial Fan Installation
We serve commercial clients throughout the Wheaton area with high-capacity exhaust fans, warehouse ventilation systems, and industrial cooling fans. Our commercial fan installations meet all local building codes and OSHA requirements, with proper electrical connections rated for continuous duty operation. We work with businesses to design ventilation solutions that improve worker comfort and meet regulatory requirements.
Smart Fan Technology and Controls
Modern fan installations can include sophisticated controls like smartphone apps, voice activation compatibility, and integration with home automation systems. We install and program smart ceiling fans, automated exhaust fans with humidity sensors, and multi-speed ventilation systems with programmable controls. Our technicians ensure all smart features function properly and provide training on operation and maintenance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need an electrical permit for fan installation?
Most ceiling fan installations require electrical permits, especially when running new circuits or replacing existing electrical boxes. We handle all permit applications and inspections as part of our service, ensuring your installation meets local code requirements. Simple fan replacements using existing electrical boxes may not require permits, but we assess each situation to ensure compliance.
How do I choose the right size ceiling fan for my room?
Fan size depends on room dimensions and ceiling height. For rooms up to 75 square feet, we recommend 36-42 inch fans. Medium rooms (75-144 sq ft) work best with 44-50 inch fans, while larger spaces need 52-56 inch fans or multiple smaller units. We evaluate your specific space and provide recommendations based on room size, ceiling height, and intended use.
Can you install fans on sloped or cathedral ceilings?
Yes, we regularly install fans on sloped and cathedral ceilings using special mounting hardware designed for angled installations. These installations require specific angled mounting systems and may need extended downrods to ensure proper clearance and operation. We assess ceiling angles and room dimensions to determine the best fan placement and mounting approach.
How long does a typical fan installation take?
Simple ceiling fan replacements typically take 1-2 hours when using existing electrical boxes and wiring. New installations requiring electrical box replacement or new circuit installation can take 3-4 hours. Complex installations involving smart controls, multiple fans, or challenging mounting locations may require a full day. We provide time estimates during our initial assessment.
