Ceiling fans to improve and maintain home air quality via air ventilation–

	Should be a natural part of the Electrical & Lighting Plan
	Reference to ceiling fans should also be in the Floor plans and, if available, Ceiling framing plans
	Can be easily identified with Ceiling fan symbols Fan blade diameters Two-way dimensions to fan centerpoints Switching
	If modified in consultation as to any of its home design metrics, those changes shall be carried back to the plan set, especially the Electrical Plan and Ceiling Plan Schedule
	Ceiling fans can be easily gauged for fan blade diameter and, to a lesser extent, downrod length (you might not want those blades so low in certain light flutter - see below - circumstances) at Hunter ceiling fans et al.

Be careful to avoid light flutter, or stutter – the repeated interruption of a steady stream of illumination at eye-level and below caused by the rapid, periodic passing of ceiling fan blades between a light source and an observable . . . please see Light Flutter hereunder for a fuller discussion in this regard.

	Keep close attention to beam spread of light sources proximate to and above ceiling fan blades
	Consider modifying a lighting layout even ever-so-slightly as a useful variable
	Consider shortening the downrod as a useful variable
	Consider shortening fan blade length as a less useful variable
	Consider raising the ceiling fan in its own tray

This is a typical Ceiling Fan Layout for Bed 2 in the Ceiling Fan Schedule that ends this e-article from Before The Architect 

	You'll see that there's not much to figure out later on except style and
	When it's important to get a particular ceiling fan in a particular location, Before The Architect dimensionally specifies that fan in that place right on the Electrical & Lighting Plan on Centerlines and Centerpoints and even with Dimension statements, if needed
