Shabby Chic Ceiling Fans – The flush-style ceiling fan is mounted snugly close to a flat horizontal fairly low ceiling where it really is dealt with, and from where it delivers a comforting room breeze. It comes in several diameters, from about 28 to 60-inches, with regards to the size of the 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 tools and possible other regions necessary for installing them, their self-assemble kits feature any devices. In many cases, the fan, that will have a unique lighting, will replace a ceiling permanent fixture.

Safety, The electricity should be off once your there in which the fan shall be installed. If the fan is replacing a permanent fixture, de-activate its fuse or circuit breaker as well as flipping its wall change to the off position. Stand on a sturdy wide-berth step stool or ladder in the installation; don’t lean or enter a twisted position while there. Also, wear protective eye-glasses or goggles. Furthermore, if additional auxiliary household wiring should be used, get professional advice or help first. Tools needed, instructions (electrical) eye-glasses 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 additional screws for securing the junction box, if necessary

Installation steps (reading 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 in the ceiling. Let the skeleton fixture hang there. With the light tester, ensure that the wire connections for this fixture are cold (quality light will continue to be off). Cut the wires, leaving 3-5″ of tail allowing you to connect them to the ceiling fan motor assembly. If the property is old, only two wires might exist, a black one as well as a white one. Tip: also confirm the firmness with the electrical box in the ceiling. If it really is not solidly attached to the ceiling, add two extra screws to its top side, which can require drilling two holes in the box for them. 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 in the junction box cleanly, install the mounting bracket for the box with all 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 to 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 the motor as well as a blue or off-color one for the lights to get attached below it. Overlap the stripped ends of these two wires (motor and lights) together with all the stripped end with the black ceiling wire in the box, and twist connect them together with all the wire nut provided. Connect the white assembly wire for the white ceiling wire exactly the same way.


Then, to help keep these connections from loosening while the fan is working, tape the wide lower ends of these nuts for their wires with electrical tape. Also, attach the green fan wire (ground wire from your bracket frame) for the electrical box if your box is also grounded using a third bare or green wire. Otherwise, if your electrical box in not grounded, ask a specialist about this green wire connection. Some will say to get forced out be, i.e., do nothing at all by using it. Others could suggest further wiring? 5. Install the flush-mount motor shroud. Install the motor shroud for the far ends with the mounting bracket with all the small screws provided. It covers/hides the edges with the motor and also the wiring and ceiling box. 6. Assemble the fan blades (3 to 5) and mount them. After picking out the top or bottom reversible blade color scheme preferred, attach the blades for their end brackets with all the screws and washers provided. Then mount the blades for the bottom side of fan motor with all the bolts, lock washers, and dampening gaskets provided. Note: these latter pieces sometimes are partially pre-installed for the motor to help keep them separate from your rest with the kit hardware.

Tip: to help keep the motor from becoming too off-level during this step, install the blades one-by-one opposite to one another in the first place. 7. Install the lighting assembly. Attach the fan’s lighting assembly for the small round central housing unit just under the fan blades via the 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 if your lighting assembly is just not wanted without any reason. 8. Test the fan and lights. After turning the electricity back on, flip the wall change to on. Set the pull-chain switches as desired. Often, the fan lighting is set into the future on with all 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 has a reversible motor switch that allows the draft either to go upward or downward as preferred.
