New Free Ceiling Fan Concierge Service with Kevin Calkin

Just as when you're in a strange city and you don't know where to go or what to do, you turn to the hotel concierge (who knows the city well) for ideas and recommendations for how to spend your money and time for your best enjoyment. The concierge saves you research time and guides you to solutions you might have missed since he has travelled the city extensively himself and has already helped hundreds (or thousands?) in situations like yours.

Like the hotel concierge who knows his city well, Kevin Calkin has spent his entire professional life living with and knowing ceiling fans. He has guided thousands of customers to fans they've loved for years. He knows what ones to be wary of and which to embrace. He's funny and a delight work with but is tough in tracking down or avoiding problems, just like any good concierge.

And, the best thing? The help is free, saves you time, and you're not required to follow his suggestions.


Here is how our Ceiling Fan Concierge Service works:

  1. Open an email to [email protected]
  2. Tell us what you're looking for in a ceiling fan. (Using the questions below as a template is helpful.)
  3. Kevin will send you a starting point set of usually 10 or more links for fans he thinks you might like and knows to be well-made.
  4. You can go through the links at your leisure and decide what you like and don't like.
  5. When you're ready to discuss these, respond to Kevin's email and let him know a few good times to talk.
