Ceiling Fan Installation in Winter, WI

Replacing a light with a fan is not always a straight swap. The box above most light fixtures was never meant to carry a spinning 30 to 50 pound fan. In Winter we install proper bracing, run any extra wiring and set up wall or remote control.

Ceiling Fan Installation for Winter homes and businesses

We assemble the fan, mount it on a brace rated for fan support, wire it and balance the blades. If there is no fixture in the ceiling yet, we run a new cable and add a switch. Separate control of the fan and its light is possible with an extra conductor or a smart control. Vaulted ceilings get the right downrod and angled mount, and covered porches get damp or wet rated fans that will survive a Wisconsin summer.

Winter has its share of cabins, lake homes and resorts along with year-round houses. Seasonal properties often have older wiring, undersized panels and additions wired over the decades by different hands. We sort that out across Sawyer County so the place is safe when you open it up in spring.

Winter is a regular stop for our crews, as are Radisson, Exeland and Couderay close by.

Winter ceiling fan installation FAQ

How much does ceiling fan installation cost in Winter?

Replacing an existing fan is the lowest cost. Converting a light adds a fan-rated box, and a fan where there is no wiring adds a cable run and switch. We give a fixed price once we know which you have.

Can you install a fan where there is no light fixture?

Yes. We run power to the spot, install a braced box and add a wall switch, usually with little or no drywall repair.

Why does my ceiling fan wobble?

Loose mounting, an unrated box, bent blade arms or unbalanced blades. We check each one and correct it.

Do fans help in winter?

Yes. Run on low in reverse, a fan moves warm air off the ceiling without a draft, which helps in rooms with high ceilings.
