Can I install a ceiling fan myself?
The technical answer is yes. However, if you’ve never done it before, you may be in for a surprise at how difficult this job truly is. There are lots of tools involved like ladders, fish tape, saws, screwdrivers, drop cloths and in most cases a second set of hands to help. Even if you could do everything by yourself getting the fan up to the ceiling could be the one thing that keeps you from tackling this one alone. We do not recommend installing this by yourself. This one should be left up to someone who is experienced and has another person to help.
