Call (585) 371-8893 โ€” Free Estimate

What's Included

Fan-rated electrical box

Standard light boxes can't support fan weight or movement. We install the correct fan-rated box every time.

Proper switch wiring

Single switch, dual switch (separate fan/light controls), dimmer-compatible, or smart switch โ€” wired correctly for your fan.

New wiring runs

Installing where there's no existing fixture? We run the wiring, install the box, and connect the switch.

Code-compliant installation

Every installation follows NEC and NYS code. We pull permits when required.

Cleanup

We leave the work area cleaner than we found it. No drywall dust, no wire scraps.

When You Need an Electrician

Replacing a fan where one already exists is a simple swap many homeowners do themselves. You need a licensed electrician when:

โ†’There's no existing fixture โ€” new wiring is required
โ†’The existing box is a standard light box (not fan-rated)
โ†’You want separate switches for the fan and light
โ†’You're installing a heavy fan over 35 lbs requiring a brace
โ†’You want smart/remote control wiring done correctly
โ†’The existing wiring shows signs of damage or corrosion

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I install a ceiling fan where there is no existing light fixture?

Yes, but it requires running new wiring to the location and installing a ceiling fan-rated electrical box. Premier Alarms and Electric handles the complete installation including new wiring and switch. Call (585) 371-8893 for a free estimate.

How much does ceiling fan installation cost in Rochester, NY?

Ceiling fan installation where a light fixture already exists typically runs $100โ€“$175 including labor. New wiring to a new location adds $200โ€“$500 depending on the run. Call for a free estimate.

Do I need a special electrical box for a ceiling fan in New York?

Yes. Ceiling fans require a fan-rated electrical box that can support the weight and movement of a fan. A standard light fixture box is not rated for ceiling fan use and is a code violation.

Can you install a ceiling fan with a remote or smart control in Rochester?

Yes. We install ceiling fans with remote controls, smart home integration (Google Home, Alexa), and separate light/fan switch wiring. Tell us what control system you want and we'll wire it correctly.
