DIY vs. Call a Pro
If a fan-rated ceiling box already exists with wiring, replacing a fan is a manageable DIY project. Follow the manufacturer's instructions, ensure the box is fan-rated (not just light-rated), and have someone help hold the fan during mounting.
Call a professional when:
Call an electrician if there's no existing ceiling box, if you need new wiring run, or if the ceiling is vaulted or unusually high.
