Displaying Gallery Of 36 Inch Outdoor Ceiling Fans With Light Flush with sizing 1000 X 100036 Outdoor Ceiling Fan – The flush-style ceiling fan is mounted snugly beside a designated horizontal fairly low ceiling where it is off the beaten track, and from which it delivers a comforting room breeze. It comes in several diameters, from about 28 to 60-inches, with respect to the size of the room being fitted, and may cost typically from $30 to $300. It generally has three fan motor speeds, that happen to be reversible. Except for the equipment and possible other parts needed for installing them, their self-assemble kits come with the rest. In many cases, the fan, which will have its very own lighting, will replace a ceiling permanent fixture.
Safety, The electricity must be off to begin the location where the fan is usually to be installed. If the fan is replacing a permanent fixture, turn off its fuse or circuit breaker as well as flipping its wall exchange signal of the off position. Stand on a sturdy wide-berth step stool or ladder through the installation; do not lean or enter into a twisted position while there. Also, wear protective eyeglasses or goggles. Furthermore, if additional auxiliary household wiring is necessary, get professional advice or help first. Tools needed, instructions (electrical) eyeglasses or goggles step-stool/ladder Phillips screwdrivers pliers electrical tape knife or sissors AC tester light wire cutter/stripper tape measure (optional) electric drill and further screws for securing the junction box, as appropriate
Installation steps (looking at the fan installation instructions thoroughly). 1. Remove the permanent fixture from your ceiling. With the electricity off, slowly get rid of the shade, bulbs, and fixture screws from your electrical junction box within the ceiling. Let the skeleton fixture hang there. With the light tester, guarantee the wire connections for this fixture are cold (the test light will continue to be off). Cut the wires, leaving 3-5″ of tail for connecting the crooks to the ceiling fan motor assembly. If the home is old, only two wires might exist, a black one plus a white one. Tip: also confirm the firmness with the electrical box within the ceiling. If it is not solidly connected to the ceiling, add two extra screws to its top side, which might require drilling two holes within the box on their behalf. The ceiling fan is heavier compared to the permanent fixture. It also wobbles slightly during operation. 2. Install the mounting bracket. After stripping the ends with the tailing wires within the junction box cleanly, install the mounting bracket towards the box with the two 5/32″ screw-bolts provided. Let the tailing wires hang outside with the bracket. 3. Hang the motor assembly from your bracket. Insert the topside motor-hanger in to the centralized holder with the bracket. Insert the plastic lock clip that holds it into place. Note: the hanging motor assembly should certainly swivel slightly. 4. Connect the wiring. Generally, the motor assembly has two so-called hot wires, a black one for your motor plus a blue or off-color one for your lights to become attached below it. Overlap the stripped ends of those two wires (motor and lights) together with the stripped end with the black ceiling wire within the box, and twist connect them together with the wire nut provided. Connect the white assembly wire towards the white ceiling wire much the same way.
Then, to hold these connections from loosening whilst the fan is working, tape the wide lower ends of those nuts for their wires with electrical tape. Also, attach the green fan wire (ground wire from your bracket frame) towards the electrical box in the event the box can be grounded which has a third bare or green wire. Otherwise, in the event the electrical box in not grounded, ask an expert concerning this green wire connection. Some will say to let it rest be, i.e., relax by it. Others could suggest further wiring? 5. Install the flush-mount motor shroud. Install the motor shroud towards the far ends with the mounting bracket with the small screws provided. It covers/hides the edges with the motor along with the wiring and ceiling box. 6. Assemble the fan blades (3 to 5) and mount them. After choosing the top or bottom reversible blade color scheme preferred, attach the blades for their end brackets with the screws and washers provided. Then mount the blades towards the bottom side of fan motor with the bolts, lock washers, and dampening gaskets provided. Note: these latter pieces sometimes are partially pre-installed towards the motor to hold them separate from your rest with the kit hardware.
Tip: to hold the motor from becoming too off-level within this step, install the blades individually opposite together in the first place. 7. Install the lighting assembly. Attach the fan’s lighting assembly towards the small round central housing unit just below the fan blades via the quick-wire-connectors and small screws provided. Install the glass shades, bulbs, and pull-chain extenders within the order instructed. Note: a housing cap is provided in the event the lighting assembly is just not wanted at all. 8. Test the fan and lights. After turning the electricity back on, flip the wall exchange signal of on. Set the pull-chain switches as desired. Often, the fan lighting is set ahead on with the wall switch, whilst the fan itself is controlled with the pull-chain switch only, initially set within the off position. Note: The ceiling fan includes a reversible motor switch which allows the draft either to go upward or downward as preferred.
