This is the only HVAC vent in our guest room. The room isn't very big and the window faces north. But the room still gets stuffy in the summer.
This is the light fixture that was on the ceiling.
Picked up this nice 52 inch fan at Lowes.
Ceiling fans are pretty easy to install and make a big difference. Just be sure to cut the power at the breaker box and make sure the fixture box is supported.
The previous homeowners forgot the latter point and installed a fan on the back porch. It held for a while, but a few months after we moved in I noticed the fan was severely tilted. Turns out they had replaced a light fixture with the fan and didn't check to see that the electrical box was supported. I had to replace the box with an "old work" ceiling fan box from the hardware store. This goes up in the ceiling and extends out to the joists.
