Ceiling Fans: Top Picks

What is the #1 necessity in Houston? Ceiling Fans!

This is an affordable way to keep your room cool while also keeping up with the style trends. Below are a few tips for choosing indoor and outdoor ceiling fans.

Indoor Ceiling Fans

Size the fan to the room: about 44 to 50 inches across for most bedrooms and 52 inches or larger for living rooms. On vaulted or tall ceilings, a downrod brings the blades down to an effective height of about 8 to 9 feet. A light kit or remote is worth it in rooms where the fan is the main fixture.

Outdoor Ceiling Fans

Check the rating before you buy. A damp-rated fan suits a covered porch or patio. Anywhere rain can reach the fan directly, it needs to be wet-rated. Outdoor fans should be on a circuit with the right protection, which we check during the install.

The experts at Wired Electrical & Generators are trained in installing ceiling fans. Whether they are installed on cathedral or angle ceilings, our team will get the job done. Contact our staff to get on our schedule today! See our ceiling fan installation service.
