Date Published:
October 5, 2025

Ceiling fans are a must-have in Georgia’s climate. They improve airflow, help reduce cooling costs, and add functional style to your space. Whether you're replacing an old unit or installing a new fan, the safest approach is hiring a licensed electrician.
At Atlanta Master Electricians, we provide reliable ceiling fan installation services for homeowners, business owners, and landlords across Atlanta and surrounding counties. From modern condos in Buckhead to classic homes in Decatur and large commercial spaces in Marietta—we’ve got the expertise to do the job safely and correctly.
Why Hire a Licensed Electrician for Ceiling Fan Installation?
While it might seem like a quick DIY task, installing a ceiling fan involves more than just mounting a bracket and twisting wires. Common DIY mistakes can lead to unsafe wiring, wobbly or noisy fans, and even fire hazards.
Our licensed electricians ensure your installation includes:
Properly rated ceiling fan electrical boxes
Secure mounting to ceiling joists
Correctly wired switches and dimmers
Dedicated circuits when needed
Grounding and bonding for electrical safety
We inspect your existing wiring, verify panel capacity, and ensure all connections follow NEC and local code.
Ceiling Fan Installation Services We Offer
We install ceiling fans for a wide range of ceiling types, heights, and room configurations—both indoor and outdoor.

New Ceiling Fan Installation
Installing a fan where one didn’t exist? We’ll handle:
Running new wiring to your desired location
Installing a ceiling fan–rated electrical box
Mounting and balancing the fan
Connecting switches or remote-control systems
This is especially common in older Atlanta homes that never had overhead lighting.
Ceiling Fan Replacement
Replacing an existing fan or light fixture? We’ll remove the old unit, inspect the box and support, then safely install and balance your new fan.
High Ceilings & Vaulted Installations
Have a ceiling over 10 feet or a sloped surface? We use angled mounting kits and extended downrods to install fans securely and safely.
Outdoor Ceiling Fan Installation
We install weather-rated fans for:
Covered patios
Sunrooms
Gazebos and porches
These installations must meet strict standards for outdoor wiring and weatherproofing—our team is fully trained to handle them.
Ceiling Fan Installation for Homes and Businesses
We serve both residential and commercial clients in the Atlanta metro area and beyond. Whether it's one fan or a full building upgrade, we deliver efficient, code-compliant installations.
Residential Services
Ceiling fans lower cooling bills and improve comfort in bedrooms, living areas, and outdoor spaces. We help homeowners choose the right size fan, ensure safe wiring, and install with minimal disruption.
Commercial Services
In retail stores, gyms, warehouses, or offices, ceiling fans support HVAC systems and boost ventilation. We install commercial-grade fans and tie them into your building’s system safely.
Need an Emergency Electrician?
If your ceiling fan sparks, hums, or suddenly stops working, don’t ignore it. These could be signs of deeper electrical problems. We provide emergency electrician Atlanta services during business hours to address urgent electrical concerns quickly.

It depends on your room size. Smaller rooms (up to 100 sq. ft.) work with 36–42" fans, while larger rooms (over 225 sq. ft.) often need 52" or bigger. We’ll help you choose the right size.
