Typically, a residential ceiling fan weighs between 15 to 50 pounds, including the motor, blades, light fixture, and other integral components. The amount of copper you can extract from a ceiling fan motor varies based on its size and the fan model, with an average yield of 0.5 to 1.5 pounds of copper from a standard residential ceiling fan motor.
Yes, it's worth it to dismantle a ceiling fan for scrap, especially if you have the necessary tools, time, and knowledge. The copper extracted from the motor can be valuable, particularly if you can collect from several fans. Other fan parts, like the steel or aluminum blades, the light fixture, and the mounting hardware, can also be recycled.
Our video provides a step-by-step guide on disassembling a ceiling fan, from removing the fan blades to extracting the motor, and finally, removing the copper. We also help you understand the importance of safety and the need to know the current market value of copper.
