New Home Lighting
Does anyone know where contractors get ceil fans and ceil lighting from?
|
No but if you search the brand you can see who sells them. Long shot but the warranty department might know.
|
I think Dan's Fan City may have the same fans.

OP, call home warranty, they will be able to tell you the make of the fans and who installed them. Now if the root of your question is to install a light kit, I have done this for 4 Kichler fan (house original) with kits purchased at Lowe's. These seem to be standardized and I had very little trouble with the installation. One word of caution several years ago when I did this, they were selling units with an unusual 2 pin CFL lamp, which is going to be a future problem when these fail.

Call manufacturer tells them what you are looking for and they will direct you accordingly. When we had our light kits put in we were first told we had to buy direct from Hunter but than would up buying from Lowes who gave us a better price than Hunter. |
Replace the fan blades only?

I see people on Nextdoor selling the Kichler fans that come with the new houses here quite often. I bought Progress Lighting light kits on Amazon that was a simple plug in electrically. Progress Lighting makes most of the lightning fixtures in the new houses here.

If you are looking for an electrician we used Lenhart Electric 352-748-5818 who installed fans and lights when we moved in four years ago.

Call the warranty department. They will know.

The fans are Kichler. Kichler makes light kits that are direct plug ins for these fans. If you are handy they are easy to install yourself. We ordered ours online from Lowes. There are several different styles and they ship them for free. We got ours in a few days.

My son is a general contractor in the Orlando area and he buys fan an light fixtures at Lowes

Highly recommend going to Coleman Crossing where the owner, Jason, has tons of choices and it extremely helpful. Prices are amazing and he also has an electrician who is also excellent and cheap! Have replaced all builder lights both inside and out and even bought the same fan that Dans fans had for almost half the price. In Coleman south on 301…best of luck!
|
Build.com or lampsplus.com is where we buy our fixtures at good prices.
|
You can buy the light kits from Amazon for less money than the local stores, and get them in a day or so.

Most of what we have is only at home depot

Dans Fan City in Leesbug off 441/27. You can pick the base and your blades and they have a huge inventory to choose from. For a fee they will install. Ours was $29 but I am sure it is higher now.

Electrical boxes need to be reinforced to support the weight of the ceiling fans. Some real horror story's out there on ceiling fans dropping from the ceiling from poor support. |
