Ceiling Fan Installation and Replacement in Afton
A fan weighs far more than a light and it moves. That is why ceiling fan installation in Afton should start with a fan-rated box anchored to framing. We mount it solidly, wire it correctly and balance it so it runs quietly.

Your local choice for ceiling fan installation in Afton, MI
Northern Michigan gets its power from Consumers Energy, from cooperatives such as Great Lakes Energy, Cherryland Electric and Presque Isle Electric and Gas, and from a few municipal utilities.

Replacing a light with a ceiling fan
The most common request we get in Afton is to put a fan where a light fixture hangs now. The wiring is usually already there, but the box almost never is rated for a fan. We replace it with a braced, fan-rated box, often without any drywall repair, then hang the fan. If you want the light and fan on separate switches, we can add the extra conductor or install a control that does it over the existing wires.
