STRZELEC Pty Ltd supplies and installs ceiling fans for Adelaide homes and businesses. DC and AC motor fans, indoor and outdoor-rated models, sized and positioned correctly — every installation certified by a licensed SA electrician.
A ceiling fan installation done properly takes time — and in South Australia, it must be done by a licensed electrician. We assess the ceiling structure, confirm or install the correct wiring outlet, mount the canopy bracket securely, attach the downrod and motor, connect and balance the blades, wire the controls, and test the fan at all speed settings before we leave.
Every installation finishes with a Certificate of Electrical Compliance (CEC). The certificate is your legal record that the work meets AS/NZS 3000:2018 and complies with the SA Electricity Act 1996.
Pricing depends on the job scope — whether wiring already exists, ceiling height, and how many fans are being installed. The table below gives typical ranges for Adelaide residential work. A firm quote is provided before any work begins.

All ceiling fans sold in Australia use either an AC (alternating current) or DC (direct current) motor. For Adelaide's climate — with five or more months regularly above 30°C — the choice matters.
DC motor fans use up to 70% less electricity than equivalent AC models, run quieter (ideal for bedrooms), and offer 6 or more speed settings for precise comfort. The upfront cost is higher but the energy saving pays it back within a few seasons for fans used daily through summer.
AC motor fans are the reliable, budget-friendly choice. Fewer speed settings (usually 3), slightly higher running cost, but simpler electronics and proven longevity. Well-suited to covered outdoor areas, utility spaces, and rooms where the fan runs infrequently.

Adelaide's outdoor entertaining season is long — and a ceiling fan is one of the most effective ways to make a verandah or alfresco area usable through the warmer months. Not every fan is suitable for outdoor use.
Outdoor-rated fans carry an IP (Ingress Protection) rating that qualifies them for damp or wet locations. The motor housing and blades are designed to resist moisture, insects, and temperature fluctuation. The wiring and fittings must also meet the outdoor installation requirements of AS/NZS 3000:2018.
We install outdoor-rated fans from SAL Lighting and Lucci Air across Adelaide's southern suburbs — verandahs, pergolas, undercover entertaining areas, and commercial alfresco spaces. If you have a fan in mind, we can assess its suitability; if not, we can recommend a model to suit the space and your budget.
We supply and install fans from manufacturers that are well-stocked across Adelaide, carry quality DC and AC motor options, and stand behind their products with local warranty support.
One of Australia's most established lighting and fan manufacturers. SAL's ceiling fan range covers indoor DC and AC models, outdoor IP-rated fans, and fans with integrated LED light kits — a reliable choice with consistent Adelaide stock availability.
Lucci Air is known for design-conscious DC ceiling fans with strong energy efficiency credentials. Their range includes architect-friendly profiles — low-profile hugger fans, timber blade options, and outdoor-rated models — making them popular in renovated Adelaide homes.

Common questions from Adelaide homeowners about ceiling fan installation, costs, and choosing the right fan.
Ceiling fan installation in Adelaide typically costs $150–$350 per fan when fitting to an existing wired ceiling outlet. The price varies with ceiling height, access difficulty, and fan model. Where no wiring exists a new circuit or outlet must be added, which increases the total — STRZELEC will quote this clearly before any work begins. All pricing includes the fan supply, installation, controls, and electrical certification.
Yes. In South Australia, ceiling fan installation is regulated electrical work that must be carried out by a licensed electrician. DIY installation of a ceiling fan is illegal under the Electricity Act 1996 (SA) and can void home insurance. STRZELEC Pty Ltd holds SA Electrical Licence PGE256880 and provides an Electrical Certificate of Compliance (ECoC) for every installation.
A standard ceiling fan installation to an existing wired outlet typically takes 45–90 minutes per fan. Installing multiple fans in the same visit is more efficient. If a new wiring outlet is required, allow an additional 1–2 hours depending on ceiling access. STRZELEC will give you a realistic time estimate when quoting.
Yes. Covered outdoor areas such as verandahs, pergolas, and alfresco entertaining spaces require an IP-rated ceiling fan with weather-resistant motor and blades. STRZELEC installs outdoor-rated fans from brands including SAL and Lucci Air, with appropriate weatherproof wiring and fittings to meet AS/NZS 3000:2018 requirements for outdoor electrical installations.
DC motor fans use up to 70% less electricity than equivalent AC fans — a significant saving given Adelaide's long hot summers. They also run quieter and offer 6 or more speed settings. For bedrooms, living rooms, and any space used regularly through summer, DC fans pay for their higher upfront cost within a few seasons. AC fans remain a solid, budget-friendly choice for occasional-use spaces or covered outdoor areas where energy savings are less critical.
STRZELEC commonly supplies and installs fans from SAL Lighting, Lucci Air, and Bayside Lighting — all brands that are well stocked across Adelaide and carry quality DC and AC motor options in a range of sizes and finishes. We can also source and install customer-supplied fans. If you are unsure which model suits your room, use our free ceiling fan selector tool.
