What do you think is the most effective way to install a ceiling fan in this room?
I make use of tools
Please leave
Sure thing! You can hire me at a very affordable rate to get the job done right. ive me a call at 814-663-1595. – Rob Weber
Can you kindly assist me with this task?
Suspended from the ceiling!
Sorry, I’m not interested, .
Make sure to use a ladder!

I’d personally suggest going with 72-inch blades dead center. This way, when the fan is on, it will create a strobe light effect that might be quite impressive.
Sounds good.
Make sure the fan rated box is securely attached to the joists. You’ll need to access it from the attic or cut a hole and fix it up nicely to prevent it from falling on your 3-year-old.
Can you tell me what that box with the blank cover is for?

75-pound rated box
Feeling stuck on fishing wire? The cans will definitely help out! 🤷♂️
Try placing it in the corner that is furthest away from the door.
Utilize a lighter gauge wire for the installation.
I have a ceiling fan with downlights in a bedroom and it’s not ideal – the lights can’t be on at the same time as the fan due to a strobing effect. It’s annoying and not good for my eyes. 👎

Mick Yeah, if the blades are spaced out enough. However, having a fan in that room might not be the best idea.
How about getting a fan with a light and placing it between two cans, then removing the bulbs from those cans?
You might want to consider climbing up a tall ladder for this task.
You might want to consider hiring an electrician.
Sure! Here is the rephrased text: eorge Phillips https://t.me/+K0DbM7doN5BmYTU8
Eorge Phillips provided the most accurate response.
Is eorge Phillips serious?
Sure thing! Just let me know if you need any help with that.
Sounds like you could easily end up spending way more money than you need to. I suggest you try looking on Facebook marketplace, Craigslist, or even in the Home Depot parking lot!
Imagine the money you’ll save if your home catches fire and insurance doesn’t help because you hired an unlicensed worker. Hopefully, your family is safe, but at least you saved $100, so was it really worth it?

Try starting by inserting the downrod up your butt
Avoid putting that there.

Avoid placing the fan below recessed lights unless you want to turn your room into a disco!
You’ll need a ladder for that.

You should contact an electrician.

No, you definitely don’t need to do that. You can probably find a better deal on the Facebook marketplace. And if permits are a concern, just tackle the work on the weekend or after hours.
Imagine how much you could lose if your home burns down and insurance doesn’t cover it because you hired an unlicensed person. Saving money is important, but not at the cost of risking your family’s safety.
Typically, it’s best to hang it. Keeping it in the box serves no purpose.

You could add a couple of those small screws to the ceiling fan light socket.
I wouldn’t.
Please remember to submit your report by the end of the day.
I find it easier to hang them on the walls
I would recommend using screws, although you could give duct tape a shot, but it may not be very secure
Sure thing! Here is the slightly rephrased text: https://t.me/+K0DbM7doN5BmYTU8
Make sure to mount the housing 3 inches away from the corner!
Working with someone who knows their stuff is key. Some ‘electricians’ out there don’t even have a clue what they’re doing… lol
You could hang it from the ceiling…
The most cost-effective option would be to simply purchase a floor fan.
Is it meant to be put inside the floor?
Nah, it’s just a basic floor fan that costs around 50 bucks.
Try running a circuit to it and taking measurements of the room.
Position it in the middle of the set of 4 near the center of the room
For a long room, try putting two fans – one in the middle of each set of 4
The most reliable option is to hire an to handle it 😁!
😂😂
You can utilize the existing lights to access the ceiling. Find a route from the switch location. Mount the fan box.
Consider hiring an electrician who has a ladder for the job
I’d locate the center and set up a 71/2 hp motor with a nema 3 starter
Using a ladder
Inspect the box with a blank cover, take off the cover, and let me know what you find inside.
Using your hands
Place it in the middle of the room
What’s the location?
I think something similar to this could do the trick in that room.
Look no further, this is it!
Chandelier fans
Always aim to center it
Try this, it’s ideal for you!
You might want to avoid tackling it if you’re unsure
If you have some experience, it’s a breeze…
