Can I install a ceiling fan myself without existing wiring?
You can install a ceiling fan yourself, but without existing wiring it becomes a new electrical installation. It typically requires running cable to a switch or circuit and installing a fan‑rated ceiling box. For safety and reliability, most homeowners hire a licensed electrician. Appleton Campbell will professionally install fans inside or outside, handle all wiring for optimal airflow, and can add upgrades like remotes or timers. We provide up front pricing and tidy service in Ashburn and Gainesville.
