Stainless Steel Outdoor Ceiling Fans

March 31st, 2017

I get to talk to customers quite a lot every day. Sometimes, I get to help them fix a $300 mistake.

Most of the customers I talk to come to me because they need to replace their fan. They made the mistake of buying a less expensive fan from a big box store instead. What they should have done is buy something of quality in the first place.

A common complaint is about their outdoor fan. They meant to do something quick and easy. They went to one of the common chain stores and bought what they thought were outdoor ceiling fans. Yet, only a few years after installation, they already need a new fan.

Ceiling Fans For Sloped Ceilings - Important Considerations

March 17th, 2017

The first thing you need to know about ceiling fans for sloped ceilings is that you'll have to put the fan up.

We had a problem. One of our sales folks a few years ago... We insisted that to sell ceiling fans, he needed to know how to install one.

When to Replace a Ceiling Fan

• If you've cleaned your fan but it still makes noise,

• your fan uses incandescent lights rather than new, efficient LEDs,
• or if your fan does not have an efficient DC electic motor.
