Ask contractor remove grille and when house complete then install new windows. !! Anyone did something like this or have a better solution? Looking at Decorille to do it .. any comments

Placement Of Ceiling Fan
Where to put ceiling fan in living room and bed room? Understand that there is "no wind" exactly underneath the fan, is this true? Usually it's at the side/perimeter of the fan that has the most "wind" Hence if place in hall will be either - between tv and sofa - behind sofa place in room will be not directly above bed, at one side
