  • Journal of Light Construction (5/4/2007)

The easy way is to use a FBRS420SC Fan/Fixture Box from Arlington Industries. Rated for 70 pounds, it comes fully assembled and includes a 20-cubic-inch octagonal workbox. It costs about $25. 800/233-4717.
  • Ceiling fans: Review specs for choosing the right size and ceiling fan functions
  • ebuild (3/27/2007)
  • Ceiling fans are an appealing amenity that can help increase comfort and cut energy bills. Properly sized ceiling fans can reduce cooling costs in summer, and ceiling fans with reversible motors can redirect warm air trapped near ceilings to cut heat consumption in winter. When fitted with a light kit, a ceiling fan can double as the room's primary light source. There are ceiling fan styles for every decor. Major manufacturers include Broan/NuTone, Casablanca, Emerson, Hunter, Monte Carlo and Sea Gull. Key specification criteria include: blade diameter, number of fan blades, mounting style, color or finish, light kit availability, and Energy Star compliance.
