36 Inch Outdoor Ceiling Fan – Two good reasons to put in a ceiling fan, heating and cooling. If you live in a cold climate, fans can push warm air gathered at the ceiling back off. Ceiling fans can be simple to install in case you have some mechanical aptitude. Current ceiling fans have remote-controls to vary speed and adjust lighting. If your room already includes a fitting in the ceiling, your fitting probably has one hot or feed wire gonna 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 work using your application. Additionally some remote-controlled fans use wall controller which sends its signal to the fan like a TV remote. It just seems like a wall control unit. If you really need the energy wire for your remote-controlled fan, please cap from the fourth wire which you will not need to use. This must be shown with your directions that came with the fan assembly.

Once you have acquired a lover you like, build it according to the instructions given. Some fans can be a little more complex, ask an associate to aid if you need to. It is best to makes it assembled correctly, developing a ceiling fan blade thud yourself the top can be annoying. Once you have the pre-assembly completed, now you can prepare the ceiling junction box. Of course I know you have already ensured the energy to the ceiling box is powered down no you can energize it accidentally. Once you have performed this, you ought to find three wires in 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 includes a fourth wire, this would be setup for a wall controlled fan switch which is great and allows you to use a non-remote wall controller. I should mention that some all fans have a wall controllers designed as remotes so do not be confused because these all use the singular feed with your ceiling junction box.

A word about weight, not yours but a thing about the size your fan. If you have a big fan and its weighted near 12 pounds or maybe more, you need a special junction box that can secure the excess weight. I would recommend i hear you ask somebody who knows about these heavier fans recommendations what you really are gonna install. Most fans are lighter and can be installed in most junction boxes without modifications.


Now let’s get it down there, the fan which is. Many fans have a Hanger the same shape as a U. Install this hanger on your box, the screws must be 8/32 types. That means a size 8 diameter or gauge screw with 32 threads per inch. Once you have the hanger installed, pick up your fan motor with no blades installed and hang up it about the hanger. This allows you the electrician to connect the wires without struggling to juggle the motor and wire it concurrently. Connect the bonding wire to the chassis as noted in the instructions. Next connect the white neutral wire, now the black wire. Swing the fan into place with all the parts provided. Some have brackets, some make use of a metal plate and some use preformed mounting bases. Use your instructions and you will have a lover quickly. Smaller fans may necessitate one to pre-assemble your blades before hanging the fan. I always found installing the motor first after which installing the blades last is much easier. It does require however, one to work above your head to get the blades attached.

Once you have the fan hanging, the blades installed and everything tightened now you can step from the 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 line and load situation here. This means, the queue side may be the group of wires the feed in to the switch box from your panel even though the Load side is gonna your fan. This is critical so be sure you understand 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 according to your instructions. Now wire your Hot or Power wire to the Line side of one’s controller. If you have the fourth wire in there, cap rid of it or use it to the motor control and connect it accordingly to your directions. Red to Red is truly the case here. Once completed, be some Iced Tea and get your new fan.
