How the ceiling fan assessment was handled
St. Petersburg, Pinellas County does not have a gentle off-season for building materials. That is why this ceiling fan assessment job is described in Florida terms, not Midwest terms.
- Confirm the existing box
A fan-rated box and solid support are the gate. If they are missing, the job routes to licensed electrical.
- Like-for-like hang
When the written scope allows, swap on the existing support and keep the circuit unchanged.
- Balance and wobble check
Run the fan through speeds and confirm the light kit if one is in scope.
- Document routing
Photograph the completed hang and note any licensed follow-up.
Why this fails in Pinellas County
