Ceiling Fans & Bathroom Exhaust Fans
A ceiling fan needs more than a hook — it needs a fan-rated box, correct wiring, and controls that work the way you want. Bright Bee Electric installs and replaces ceiling fans and bathroom exhaust fans properly, including locations with no existing fixture.

Why It Matters
When this work is worth doing
Standard ceiling boxes are not rated to hold a spinning fan — a proper installation uses a fan-rated box anchored to framing. If your current fan wobbles or was hung from a light box, it is worth correcting.
A working bathroom exhaust fan is moisture control, not a luxury. Bathrooms that fog up and stay damp grow mildew and slowly damage paint and drywall. The fix is usually a properly sized, properly vented fan on a humidity sensor or timer.
What affects the price
Every home is different, so pricing is confirmed in a written estimate after the free in-person consultation. The main factors:
- Whether a fan-rated box and bracing must be added
- Existing wiring versus new switch legs for separate fan and light control
- Ceiling height and attic access
- Fan size and features (lights, remotes, smart controls)
- Ducting condition for bathroom exhaust fans

FAQ
Ceiling Fans & Bathroom Exhaust Fans questions
Straight answers before you call or request a consultation.
Can you put a ceiling fan where there is only a light fixture now?+
Usually, yes. We replace the light's box with a fan-rated box, confirm the wiring supports separate fan and light control, and install the fan.
Can you install a fan in a room with no ceiling fixture at all?+
Yes. We run new wiring, install a fan-rated box, and add the wall switch — this is a very common project in bedrooms and family rooms.
My ceiling fan wobbles. Is that dangerous?+
It can be a sign the fan is hung from a box that is not fan-rated, or that the mounting has loosened. It is worth having checked — the fix is usually straightforward.
What is a humidity-sensing bathroom fan control?+
A switch or built-in sensor that turns the fan on automatically when moisture rises and off when the air clears — the bathroom stays dry without anyone remembering to flip a switch.
Can you replace just the fan without redoing the ducting?+
Often, yes. Many replacement fans fit existing housings or duct connections. We assess the existing setup during the consultation and tell you what the swap involves.
