Q: What kind of lights should I look for when swapping out old halogen downlights?
A: When swapping out downlights with pendants it's important to make sure that the lights you buy have a base plate big enough to cover the 70-105mm hole in the ceiling, otherwise you'll be up for some plastering & painting.
Q: When purchasing a ceiling fan should I buy a remote controlled type?
A1: The cost of installing a standard three speed switch control can end up costing you more than the extra paid for all the bells & whistles remote control due to the added wiring.
A2: If you live in an apartment then there is no choice as there is no ceiling access to run any wiring.
Q: How low can a ceiling fan hang from the ceiling?
A: The BCA (building code of Australia) states that the min. height of the fan blades must be 2.1m (7') from the floor. You will have to have a ceiling height of at least 2.3m so you'll be able to fit a 195mm low profile fan (without light).
