Mounting a ceiling fan is central to the whole look and feel of the fan. Many of the manufacturers guarantee that when you fit your ceiling fan using their provided mounting kit it will sit perfectly flush against the ceiling. Ask around about this, see what others have found.

Check Your Ceiling

While the ceiling fan might come with a perfect mounting kit, you might not have the perfect ceiling to mount onto! Before buying, check your ceiling for drops and cracks. Many home ceilings are finished with a textured skim on the ceiling that is supposed to hide any undulations or cracks. If this is the case at your home then check it with a spirit level before trying to mount the ceiling fan. If you are dead serious about acheiving that perfect mount, it may be necessary to have your ceiling plastered again.

Mounting Kits

Most manufacturers will provide a ceiling fan complete with a mounting kit. Check to see if the kit will allow you to fit your ceiling fan on just a regular horizontal ceiling or if it is also suitable for angled ceilings. In most cases you will find that the manufacturer provides a multi-purpose mounting kit suitable for any type of ceiling.
