Under Australian law, for safety reasons, it’s essential to have your ceiling fans installed by a professional electrician. At GKT Group, we can install new fans, replace existing fans and fanlights, and complete fan repairs. We can advise you on the best type of fans to suit your particular needs including:
- Ceiling fans
- Exhaust fans
- Wall fans
- Outdoor fans
- Metal blade fans
- Wooden blade fans
- Ceiling fans with built-in lighting
Fans are crucial to every Newcastle home – they can help you circulate fresh air around the home, and can provide relief from the heat in the warmer months. You can use fans to aid your air conditioner in the cooler months, as they circulate the air in your home quicker than just using an air conditioner. This is also an effective method of saving money in summer, as you won’t need to have the aircon at such a low temperature.
Things to look for when buying a new fan:
- Blade pitch (the wider the blade and the higher the angle means more air is circulated)
- Blade finish (only buy fans which have been treated with moisture sealant to avoid damage)
- Motor quality (higher quality fans have motors with sealed and lubricated ball bearings
- Energy Star-rated fans (save energy in your household by purchasing a fan which is energy efficient)
