This is very true. Have them install the reinforced outlets so that they will support the fan's weight.

I also had them put a rheostat on the light switches at the entry areas. When I had the ceiling fans installed, I had them put on light kits and rewire the switches to turn on the light on the fan instead of the wall socket.

I used Lake Ceiling Fans. I am not sure if they still exist but they had free installation of all fans. Dan's Fans charged for installation.
