Ceiling Fan Installation in Orange County, CA

Ceiling fans are one of the simplest ways to boost comfort, improve air circulation, and reduce energy costs—but installing them isn’t always simple. Between the wiring, the balancing, the ladder acrobatics, and the fear of the fan wobbling like it’s trying to escape… it’s no wonder homeowners call in the pros.

At O’Hagan Electric, we provide clean, safe, code-compliant ceiling fan installation services throughout Orange County. Whether you’re replacing an outdated fan, adding one to your bedroom, upgrading to a smart fan, or installing a fixture on a vaulted ceiling, our licensed electricians make the entire process fast, straightforward, and stress-free.

From Irvine to Costa Mesa, Newport Beach to Anaheim, we install ceiling fans in every style, size, and location—delivering cool comfort with precision and craftsmanship.

Why Choose Professional Ceiling Fan Installation?

Ceiling fan installation involves more than attaching blades and flipping a switch. Professional installation ensures:

  • Safe electrical wiring

  • Correct mounting to support weight and motion

  • Balanced blades to eliminate wobbling

  • Proper ceiling bracing for heavy or large fans

  • Secure installation on sloped or high ceilings

  • Smart and remote-control setup

Plus, you avoid the risk of electrical shock, falling from a ladder, or discovering halfway through that your junction box wasn’t designed to hold a 20-pound spinning device. Fun surprises are great… just not that kind.

  • Standard fans

  • Low-profile flush mounts

We handle assembly, wiring, balancing, mounting, and full testing.

2. High-Ceiling or Vaulted Ceiling Fan Installation

Many Orange County homes have tall or vaulted ceilings, especially in entryways and living rooms. These installations require specialized ladders, extensions, and safety equipment.

We expertly install fans on:

  • 14+ ft ceilings

  • Two-story foyers

We also install downrods of any length to ensure proper height and performance.

Perfect for:

  • Home renovations

  • Style upgrades

  • Energy-efficient fan replacements

  • Replacing noisy or wobbly fans

We also recycle your old fan whenever possible.

4. Ceiling Box & Support Upgrades

Not all ceiling boxes are rated to support a fan. In fact, many older homes in Anaheim, Orange, and Santa Ana still have light-only boxes—these can fail under the weight and motion of a fan.

We install fan-rated ceiling boxes to ensure:

  • Safe, long-lasting support

  • Vibration-free operation

  • NEC code compliance

If your fan requires additional structural support, we upgrade bracing inside the ceiling as well.

5. Smart Fan Setup & Switch Installation

Smart fans are becoming the new standard in OC homes. We connect your fan to:

  • Wi-Fi networks

  • Smart wall switches

  • App controls

  • Alexa, Google Home, or Apple HomeKit

Want a dimmer? A dual-switch setup? A speed control? We install all of it.
