Large Modern Ceiling Fans – Two reasons to purchase a ceiling fan, cooling and heating. If you live in the cold climate, fans can push heated air gathered at the ceiling back down. Ceiling fans can be all to easy to install if you have some mechanical aptitude. Current ceiling fans include remote-controls to vary speed and adjust lighting. If your room already has a light fixture within the ceiling, your light fixture probably has one hot or feed wire going to it, the neutral white along with the bonding green or copper. Essentially it is a three-wire system. Many new construction homes have four wires available, one to the light and something to the fan motor control along with the neutral and ground. If you only have one Hot wire feeding the ceiling junction box, the remote-control fans will continue to work together with your application. Additionally some remote-controlled fans use wall controller which sends its signal to the fan as being a TV remote. It just looks like a wall control unit. If you only need the ability wire for your remote-controlled fan, please cap over fourth wire which you will not want to work with. This should be shown inside your directions that had the fan assembly.

Once you’ve got acquired a fan that suits you, build it according to the instructions given. Some fans really are a much more complex, ask an associate to aid if required. It is best to make sure it is assembled correctly, having a ceiling fan blade thud your self on the head can be annoying. Once you’ve got the pre-assembly completed, it’s simple to prepare the ceiling junction box. Of course I know you’ve got already made certain the ability to the ceiling box is switched off no one can energize it accidentally. Once you’ve got performed this, you must find three wires within the J-box. A copper or green wire for bonding. A white wire to the neutral along with a red or black wire to the power. If your junction box has a fourth wire, this could be set up for the wall controlled fan switch that’s great and allows you to work with a non-remote wall controller. I should mention that some all fans include a wall controllers designed as remotes so don’t be confused since these all assist the singular feed inside your ceiling junction box.

A word about weight, not yours but a word regarding the sized your fan. If you’ve got a substantial fan and its weighted near 12 pounds or maybe more, you need a special junction box that may offer the excess weight. I would recommend you may ask someone who knows about these heavier fans if that’s what you are going to install. Most fans are lighter and can be installed in most junction boxes without modifications.


Now let us get it there, the fan which is. Many fans include a Hanger the same shape as a U. Install this hanger on your box, the screws should be 8/32 types. That means a size 8 diameter or gauge screw with 32 threads per inch. Once you’ve got the hanger installed, pick-up your fan motor with no blades installed and hang it around the hanger. This allows you the electrician to hook up the wires without struggling to juggle the motor and wire it simultaneously. Connect the bonding wire to the chassis as noted within the instructions. Next connect the white neutral wire, and today the black wire. Swing the fan into place while using the parts provided. Some have brackets, some make use of a metal plate and some use preformed mounting bases. Use your instructions and you’ll have a fan right away. Smaller fans might require you to pre-assemble your blades before hanging the fan. I always found installing the motor first after which installing the blades last is easier. It does require however, you to work above your mind to have the blades attached.

Once you’ve got the fan hanging, the blades installed and everything tightened it’s simple to step over ladder, take a deep breath, then install the wall controller as provided. These all vary in design nonetheless they all follow similar procedures. Remember, you will have a line and load situation here. This means, the queue side is the group of wires the feed in the switch box from the panel whilst the Load side is going to your fan. This is critical so ensure you see the difference. Connect the Load side first: Connect your bonding wire first. Then connect your white neutral wire. Then your hot wire. Next perform the Line (incoming) side next: Bond or ground should already be comprised to the new controller. Next wire your white neutral to the controllers neutral to the Line side. You may have already wired your neutrals together in accordance with your instructions. Now wire your Hot or Power wire to the Line side of your respective controller. If you’ve got the fourth wire in there, cap it off or use it to the motor control and connect it accordingly for a directions. Red to Red is often the case here. Once completed, make yourself some Iced Tea and get a new fan.
