Don't know, but curious: Is there a light fixture there already? I assume not, since you said "get power to"
Is there another light fixture close to where you want it? Also, is there access to the space above the where you want it?

Likely cost for getting power to & installing a fan on a 12-ft ceiling, UCounty?

What you want to pay multiplied by 2.

If you diy, about $15 for 12 gauge wire and a switch, plus the cost of your fan.

And the cost of a 12 ft ladder.

There's always a buddy you can borrow that from, if you don't already have one.

No, and I think so. Haven't checked. Would be at the apex of a vaulted ceiling.

If there's access, it's very easy to DIY, as others have said. Even if you're adding a new switch, it can be a pain

Does it also need a switch or are you going to add it on the same switch the

Not much if you already have a light in the ceiling

I will answer your actual question. It will take a good handyman a couple hours

What you need to find out is if the vaulted ceiling is trussed or stick framed.
