Frequently Asked Questions
At NRW Electrical Connections, ceiling fan installation starts from $175 + GST. This applies when replacing an existing light fitting with a ceiling fan, where wiring is already in place. Price excludes the ceiling fan itself.
The cost of a ceiling fan installation is usually determined by:
- Replacement or new installation (no existing lighting)
- Roof cavity access and roof type
- Whether the fan is a DC or AC model
- If additional wiring is required from the switch
- Assessing the ceiling to run cables
- Installing any required bracing or support between the trusses
- Connecting the wiring to an existing circuit or installing a new one if required
- Installing the wall controller or remote receiver
- Testing the fan for correct operation and balance
- Ensuring compliance with AS/NZS 3000
AC (Alternating Current) Fans:
- Connected directly to a switch/wall controller
- Generally more affordable upfront
- Often only 3 speed
- Slightly higher energy usage
DC (Direct Current) Fans:
- More energy-efficient and quieter
- Usually offer more speed settings
- Commonly remote-controlled
- Timer setting lets you go to bed and have it turn off automatically halfway through the night
- Higher initial cost but lower ongoing running costs
Most standard installations take 1–2 hours, depending on ceiling height, accessibility, and whether it’s a replacement or a new installation. We always ensure minimal disruption and clean up after the job.
Cooling Comfort in Warmer Months
Ceiling fans create a cooling effect by circulating air throughout the room, making your home feel more comfortable during Canberra’s warmer weather. They are a cost-effective way to improve comfort without relying solely on air conditioning.
Better Warmth Distribution in Winter
When set to reverse mode, ceiling fans help push warm air back down from the ceiling, improving heat circulation. This helps your home feel warmer without constantly increasing your heating usage.
Year-Round Climate Control
Ceiling fans offer a flexible and affordable solution for comfort in every season. With adjustable speeds and reversible airflow, they provide consistent indoor climate support day and night.
Reduce Energy Usage
By improving airflow, ceiling fans reduce the workload on heating and cooling systems. A professionally installed fan can help lower energy consumption and reduce overall electricity costs.
Improve Indoor Comfort
A well-placed ceiling fan enhances air movement, creating a fresher and more comfortable indoor environment. Whether installed in living areas, bedrooms, or alfresco spaces, fans are a practical upgrade for any home.
