Industrial Outdoor Ceiling Fans – The flush-style ceiling fan is mounted snugly alongside a set horizontal fairly low ceiling where it’s dealt with, and from where it delivers a comforting room breeze. It comes in several diameters, from about 28 to 60-inches, with respect to the size of room being fitted, and can cost typically from $30 to $300. It generally has three fan motor speeds, that happen to be reversible. Except for the instruments and possible the rest needed for installing them, their self-assemble kits have anything else. In many cases, the fan, that will have its very own lighting, will replace a ceiling light fixture.

Safety, The electricity must be off at the site in which the fan will be installed. If the fan is replacing a light fixture, de-activate its fuse or circuit breaker in addition to flipping its wall switch to the off position. Stand on a sturdy wide-berth step stool or ladder during the installation; usually do not lean or enter into a twisted position while there. Also, wear protective eyeglasses or goggles. Furthermore, if additional auxiliary household wiring is required, 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 light fixture from the ceiling. With the electricity off, slowly remove the shade, bulbs, and fixture screws from the electrical junction box in the ceiling. Let the skeleton fixture hang there. With the light tester, ensure the wire connections to the fixture are cold (quality light will always be off). Cut the wires, leaving 3-5″ of tail allowing you to connect these to the ceiling fan motor assembly. If the home is old, only two wires might exist, a black one and a white one. Tip: also look into the firmness with the electrical box in the ceiling. If it’s not solidly connected to the ceiling, add two extra screws to its top side, which can require drilling two holes in the box for the children. The ceiling fan is heavier compared to the light fixture. It also wobbles slightly during operation. 2. Install the mounting bracket. After stripping the ends with the tailing wires in the junction box cleanly, install the mounting bracket on 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 the bracket. Insert the topside motor-hanger into the centralized holder with the bracket. Insert the plastic lock clip that holds it into place. Note: the hanging motor assembly should really swivel slightly. 4. Connect the wiring. Generally, the motor assembly has two so-called hot wires, a black one for that motor and a blue or off-color one for that lights to be attached below it. Overlap the stripped ends of those two wires (motor and lights) together with the stripped end with the black ceiling wire in the box, and twist connect them together with the wire nut provided. Connect the white assembly wire on the white ceiling wire the same way.


Then, to maintain these connections from loosening while 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 the bracket frame) on the electrical box when the box is additionally grounded with a third bare or green wire. Otherwise, when the electrical box in not grounded, ask a specialist about this green wire connection. Some will say to let it rest be, i.e., do nothing from it. Others could suggest further wiring? 5. Install the flush-mount motor shroud. Install the motor shroud on the far ends with the mounting bracket with the small screws provided. It covers/hides the sides with the motor as well as the wiring and ceiling box. 6. Assemble the fan blades (4 to 6) and mount them. After picking out 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 on the bottom side of fan motor with the bolts, lock washers, and dampening gaskets provided. Note: these latter pieces sometimes are partially pre-installed on the motor to maintain them separate from the rest with the kit hardware.

Tip: to maintain the motor from becoming too off-level within this step, install the blades one at a time opposite to each other to begin with. 7. Install the lighting assembly. Attach the fan’s lighting assembly on the small round central housing unit just underneath the fan blades through quick-wire-connectors and small screws provided. Install the glass shades, bulbs, and pull-chain extenders in the order instructed. Note: a housing cap is provided when the lighting assembly is not wanted for any reason. 8. Test the fan and lights. After turning the electricity back on, flip the wall switch to on. Set the pull-chain switches as desired. Often, the fan lighting is set in the future on with the wall switch, while the fan itself is controlled through the pull-chain switch only, initially set in the off position. Note: The ceiling fan includes a reversible motor switch that permits the draft either to go upward or downward as preferred.
