Do you already have a light in the ceiling where you want the fan to be?

I'm hoping you also have the box linked to the rafters...

I've installed a fan in one of the rooms in a townhouse in camden crossing and if you cant figure it out and you are an engineering major then good luck finding a job. Just read the instructions and quit being a vagina.

This is a VERY important question, and will make all the difference in the world when quoting you a price

i installed my own ceiling fan once...i shut off the switch on the wall, but didn't kill the circuit

i woke up lying on my bed after grabbing the wires to pull them down

it was fun, i'd do it again

shut off the circuit

If the ceiling is already wired and braced for a fan and you can't do it yourself.... just quit engineering right now and find yourself a new major. Seriously, you're not going to make it

^ they are

8/11/2008 1:26:21 PM

^the bigger rooms are, the smaller rooms aren't wired for overhead lighting

if you're talking about the smallest room, you need to call an electrician to run wires

8/11/2008 11:04:24 PM

CE != electrician

8/11/2008 11:11:26 PM

^^ well all the rooms in my house were

u should either do it yourself or contact an electrician, no one on here has insurance in the case that you burn down your townhouse.

CE = you have a lick of sense.

Seriously. Just flip the power off (If you want, buy a circuit tester at Lowes for $8), open up the little box, and notice how incredibly easy it is to install a ceiling fan.

I didn't know what the hell I was doing the first time I did it either. I just winged it...took 25 mins. Easy as can be...and I'm a CE

wrong

if you still need it done Sunday I will do it for 30 bucks so long as the room is wired and braced. I can still do it if either of those conditions aren't met but the price goes up quite a bit.
