That is awesome to hear! Congrats!

You're welcome!

Same

Another one bites the dust. Hours of frustration saving video!

You're welcome! We're glad to hear the video helped.

We're glad the video helped, but... It sounds like the remote receiver was connected to a wall mounted speed control? If so, we would suggest immediately disconnecting the receiver from the wall control and wiring it to the house constant supply line as shown in the video. In general, connecting the receiver to a wall mounted speed control will damage the receiver. We do no recommend using this fan with any switches.

@@ceilingfans101 Hm. I think this is a quirk in our house's wiring because we wired the fan up exactly as instructed (following both your video and the instructions provided) - but although the switch is supposed to adjust speed, it actually functions as an on/off switch and doesn't allow us to adjust the speed of the fan (ie it is off in any position other than 'full speed' which is on)

Thanks and you're welcome!

Wow. Thanks!

In general, remote controls fans should not be installed with wall controls that control speed - a wall speed control will damage the remote receiver. We would recommend installing as shown in the video (with no switches). The light has a memory to remember the color temperature setting and if connected to an on/off switch, the color temperature may change each time the switch is turned off/on. Technically, the fan could be installed with wall controls instead of the remote, but again, you would lose the ability to control the light's color temperature settings. Hope that info helps.

thanks!

That's great to hear!

There's not really any tricks. If the mounting bracket is not level, or the ceiling is not perfectly level, the canopy ring won't be able to be flush against the ceiling.

that's great to hear! You're welcome!

if the light ever goes out, you just need to call Hampton Bay customer service to order a replacement.

@@ceilingfans101 OK THANKS!

That's awesome!

This fan does not have a flush mount option and must be installed with a downrod.

@@ceilingfans101 Thank You , just had to mod it and cut 3ins off and remake the hole for the lock pin . Work perfect !

@@fr8fiends do you have video of your mod. I have 8ft ceiling and want to install as flush as I can.

@@MarvWhite17 I don’t have a video of my mod , I just installed it and took measurements on how much I can cut off the down pipe and predrilled the hole again for the locking pin ! It’s kinda easy anyone can do it , if your the one that installed it .

How many inches is it from ceiling to bottom of the fan

ours too! such a sleek look!

We do not suggest using any switches with this fan. The only option would be to connect the remote receiver to one standard on off switch, but that will cause the light's color temperature to change each time the switch is turned off/on. We suggest wiring as directed in the video (without switches) and only using the remote.

Yes, in general, the only acceptable switch option for use with a remote control fan is a single on/off toggle style switch. Using a 3-speed wall switch in conjunction with the remote receiver will eventually damage the receiver.

Correct. The receiver can only be wired to one power supply - The house black (constant) or red (switch). You can connect the receiver to the red switch wire instead of the house black wire and then cap the black wire. That would allow you to use the switch to turn the fan and light on/off. Please note that if connected to a switch, the color temperature of the light may change if the switch is turned off/on too quickly (within 4 seconds).

No, the black receiver wire would connect to EITHER the black or red house wire, not both. Typically, a red wire is a switch wire. Which ever house wire you don't use (red or black), just cap it off with a wire nut and electrical tape. Please note that if connected to a switch, the color temperature may change if the switch is turned off/on too rapidly (within 4 seconds).

@@ceilingfans101 thank you! I switched them and capped the red. Works great

Good job! @@vr6trooper

The downrod does not make the fan hang at an angle. The fan can be installed on a sloped ceiling with a maximum angle of 20 degrees with the parts included (+ the extension downrod). If the angle of the ceiling is greater than 20 degrees, you will need a 45 degree canopy kit like model #82735 sold at The Home Depot.

Are they installed on the same circuit/power wire. If they are installed in a series, the first fan may be receiving all the necessary power and while the 2nd one is not. That's one possibility. We would suggest calling Hampton Bay customer service. Their team is pretty good at troubleshooting over the phone. They will also be able to send any replacement parts if necessary.

We have to say that we recommend calling a licensed electrician if you are unsure about wiring. That being said, a red wire is typically a switch wire. If that is the case, and the switch is a standard on/off toggle style switch, you can connect the receiver's power wire to the house red wire and cap off the house black wire. That would allow you to turn the fan and light on/off simultaneously using the switch. Please note that if connected to a switch, the color temperature of the light may change if the switch is turned off/on rapidly (within 4 seconds). You could also just cap off the red and connect the wires as shown in the video.

We would suggest contacting a licensed electrician if you are not sure about your wiring. Typically, a red wire is a switch wire and the instructions for the fan do not address a red wire because switches are not recommended for use with this fan. If you have 2 switches on the wall - 1 for fan and 1 for light - the black wire in the ceiling may be the other switch wire since you would need 2 wires for 2 different controls. Did you try to turn the switches on after you connected everything. If the black wire is a switch wire, the fan would not get power if the switch is turned off. Also, make sure that the dip switches in the remote and receiver match and that the reverse switch is fully in one position or the other. If the reverse switch is between settings, the fan won't operate. If those tips don't help, we would suggest calling Hampton Bay customer service.

Hi John Sw! I have the same problem with the red wire coming from the ceiling, how did you fix it? If you did. Thank you

Awww, thanks!

Technically, yes, but not recommended. If all of the dip switches are set the same in the remote and both receivers, the one remote would control both fans. This can create an issue if the fans get out of sync (ex: one fan receives the light signal and the other doesn't which would cause one light to come on and the other stays off, then when trying to turn the second light on with the remote, both fans receive the signal and now the first fan's light is off and the second turned on). we always recommend setting each remote and receiver to a unique dip switch setting to ensure proper operation.

You're welcome!

The fan can be installed with the receiver on a sloped ceiling with a max angle of 20 degrees. If the angle is greater than 20 degrees, you will need a 45 degree canopy kit which will allow for extra space in the canopy to accommodate the angle. Also make sure that the slot of the ball is seated on the tab in the mounting bracket. If the slot is not seated on that tab, apace will be reduced between the top of the mounting bracket and top of the ball.

Yep just happened to me now receiver will go in but then the fan will be crooked! Did the 45 angle mount fix this problem

I had to alter the 45 degree fixture. Took wire snips and cut opening longer to accommodate the increased angle. Mine is white so I just resprayed it. Up in ceiling you can’t tell it was cut. Worked out well.

@@billyoung4214 thank you appreciate it! idk why they didn’t make the bracket a little bigger so the receiver would easily fit but u know how it is can’t have nothing nice!

This fan does not include a flush mount option.

Ok, let's tackle the wiring question first. We are not licensed electricians and we have to say that should consult with one if you are not sure about the wiring. That being said, a red wire in the ceiling is typically a switch wire. If the red wire is a switch wire, we suggest capping it off and not using it with this particular fan. The light is a white color changing LED and if the receiver is wired to a switch, it could cause the light to change color temperature each time the switch is turned off/on. If the receiver was wired as directed in the video - black (or red) receiver wire to black house wire, white receiver wire to White House wire, and green fan wires to bare copper house wire (ground) - we’d suggest checking that the wire connections did not disconnect or get loose during the installation (happens sometimes). Also, make sure that the reverse switch is fully in one position or the other. If the reverse switch is between settings, the fan won’t work. Also double check the connection plugs between the fan and the receiver. Last would be to make sure that the dip switch settings in the battery compartment of the remote match the dip switch settings on the receiver. If those tips do nt resolve the issue, we’d suggest calling the Hampton Bay customer service team at 1-855-434-2678. Their team is pretty good at troubleshooting. Let us know how it works out. (sorry for the long reply).

When you say bottom, is the white and blue wire from the fan or receiver? The fan should have a quick connect wire harness that plugs into the receiver, then the receiver should have separate wires to connect to the house supply lines (hot and neutral).

At 11:50 in the video it says to connect the “black light kit wire to the black wire and the white lite kit wire to the white wire”. In my unit there are two wires for the light kit to connect to, white and blue. Not black and white.

Technically, yes, but it would require altering the wiring which could void the warrranty. We wouldn't recommend using 2 different switches with this fan because of the color temperature changing light kit. The remote is the only reliable way to control the color temperature of the light and if installed to 2 switches, you would need to bypass the remote receiver which would render the remote useless. The receiver can be wired to one switch that would let you turn the fan and light on/off simultaneously. Just be aware that if doing that, the color temperature of the light may change if the switch is turned off/on too quickly (within 4 seconds).

The ball was already installed on the downrod.

Here are some tips. Make sure that the side of the blade marked "this side up" is facing the ceiling. There will be a bit of resistance when inserting the blades as they have to pass 2 parts in the clip to lock in place. Don't be afraid to really push them in. You may need to squeeze the locking tabs to allow for easier insertion, but shouldn't have to. Once the blades are installed, make sure to try to pull them out to make sure they are locked in. Hope that helps!

Thank you so much. I’ll give a try again.

@@anisako25 please let me know how it works out.

thanks for the request. Unfortunately, that fan is not on the production schedule.

Lol I actually have a 42” centreville

We would suggest calling Hampton Bay customer service. The LED module and other parts will still be covered under warranty.

Most wobble issues can be traced to a few issues. 1. Incorrectly installed blades - make sure the blades are completely pushed in and locked in place. Try pullingthe blades out once they are set to make sure they are in correctly. 2. A loose outlet box - make sure there is no movement in the outlet box attached to the ceiling. 3. A loose set screw on the motor collar - make sure the set screw is completely tightened. 4. An incorrectly seated ball of the downrod. - Make sure the ball of the downrod is seated so that the slot of the ball is resting on top of the tab on the inner ring of the mounting bracket. Hope that helps. Let me know!

That's odd. If you have already double-checked the wiring connections are properly and completely made, we would suggest calling the Hampton Bay customer service team at 1-855-434-2678. Their team is pretty good at troubleshooting over the phone.

@@ceilingfans101 Thank you for the phone number!

We're not licensed electricians, but for this fan, we'd recommend just connecting as the wiring instructions in the video. If you have extra wires, we would suggest just capping them off and not using them. Typically, a red wire in the ceiling is a switch wire. For this particular fan, we do not recommend using any switches because it could cause the light color temperature to change each time the switch is turned off and on again. If you have wiring concerns, we would suggest contacting a licensed electrician.

Where you able to figure this issue?

No, this fan does not have a flush-mount option.

For this particular fan, we would suggest capping off the red wire. Please note that if the receiver is connected to a switch, the light color temperature may change if the switch is turned off/on too rapidly (typically within 4 seconds).

@@ceilingfans101 thanks that’s what I did.

Sounds like a wiring issue, maybe. We would suggest calling Hampton Bay customer service at 1-855-434-2678. Their team is really good at troubleshooting over the phone.

The fan can be installed on a sloped with a maximum angle of 20 degrees. If the angle is greater than 20 degrees, you will need a 45 degree canopy kit.

@@ceilingfans101 Thank you. It seems that detail was not in the instructions, about the slope, or what product would help finish the job. Hampton Bay/Home Depot should take a better look at their manuals.

@@donnmiller5875 we would suggest something like the Commercial Electric 45 degree canopy kit. It's available on the Depot website (search model # 82725). They can be painted to match your fan's finish.

The box says it can be mounted on a slope ceiling; had I known that I needed to buy an extra device to make that happen I Would NOT have bought it .

The fans are all tested by 3rd party testing facilities to confirm the fan's performance. There is a difference between CFM and air velocity. The 6247 CFM is total air movement in the room under optimal conditions. Velocity is the breeze felt. There are a few factors that could impact performance such as room size and proximity to the ceiling. In stalling this fan in a room smaller than 12ft x 12ft would negatively impact the fan's performance. On high speed the blades should rotate at a rate of about 125 RPM.

I have two of these in an outdoor covered area about 10 to 12 feet apart. The covered area is roughly 10x30. There is very little air movement in this space. They are sending me two capacitors now and I will try that. I have six additional ceiling fans throughout my home in various rooms that push a lot of air. Just hoping to get close to that.@@ceilingfans101

The whole light kit is held on by magnets. To remove the light kit, you need to pull down firmly. If you only need to remove the light shade, that just twists out (unscews) from the light kit pan.

Thanks. Make sure the fan is operatin in the proper direction to create a downward airflow.

Technically, yes, but it would require altering the wiring. We do NOT recommend doing this because of the color temperature changing light kit. To connect to 2 different switches, you would need to cut the fan's blue wire (light power) from the receiver plug. Then you could wire the receiver to one switch and the blue fan wire to the other switch. If you connect the light to a switch, you will lose the light control from the remote. The remote is the only way to consistently change the color temperature of the light. If connected to a switch, the light will change color temperature if turned off/on rapidly (within 4 seconds).

@@ceilingfans101 appreciate the info! I'll take a look into and if it'll be worth it. If not I'll just use the remote and one switch

The fan can be mounted on a sloped ceiling with a maximum angle of 20 degrees. If the angle is greater than 20 degrees, you will need a 45 degree canopy kit that allows for a greater installation angle.

Thank you for the information. Are you able to provide me with a model number or link to purchase this kit?

@@glendahazlitt6977 one option would be internet #320420747 available at Home Depot dot com.

We would suggest just capping the red wire with an electrical nut and some electrical tape.

We would suggest calling Hampton Bay customer service at 1-855-434-2678. Their team is pretty good at troubleshooting. They will also be able to send any replacement parts if necessary.

no, but there is a hugger version available (model #92403)

Did you wire the fan's receiver to a switch? If so, the light may change color temperature if the light switch is turned off/on. For optimal performance, we would suggest only using the remote to control the fan and leave the switch on, or wire directly to the house constant wire instead of the switch.

If your wiring differs from the manual, we have to suggest contacting a licensed electrician to ensure wiring is connected correctly. That being said, a red wire is typically a switch wire. If that is the case, you can use the house red wire instead of the house black wire. This would allow you to turn the fan and light on/off simultaneously using the switch. Please note that if connected to a switch, the light may change color temperature if the switch is turned off/on too rapidly (within 4 seconds).

This fan does not have a flush mount option and must be installed with a downrod.

To remove the blades, you'll need to remove the light kit. Pull the light kit down (it is attached by magnets). Then you will have access to the blade clips. Squeeze the clips together to release the blades and pull the blades away from the fan motor housing.The clips can be seen in the "Checking the blades" section (11:07).

I'm having same issue I can't get light kit off won't budge

This fan is not designed to be used with separate switches. The only recommended switch option would be to connect the receiver's power wire to a switch wire (typically a red wire). The switch must be a standard on/off toggle style switch. Technically, the wiring could be altered to be able to be wired to 2 separate switches, but we do not recommend that because you will lose the ability to control the light's color temperature settings.

@@ceilingfans101 thank you!! If I was to wire it with two switches how would I do that???

@@Yatzse74 we have to say that we are not licensed electricians and if you are unsure of wiring, you should contact a licensed electrician. That being said, to wire to 2 separate switches, you would need to cut the wire harness plug from the fan wires. Then you would be left with 3 separate wires: Black (fan speed power to one switch wire), blue (light power to the other switch wire), and white (neutral). Please note that if connected to 2 separate switches, you would lose the ability to control the light's color temperature setting. The light may cahnge color temperature if the light switch is turned off/on rapidly (within 4 seconds).

When properly installed, the fan should operate quietly. If the fan is making noise, we would suggest going back and making sure that everything is installed correctly.

@@ceilingfans101 well it's a humming noise from the motor so pretty sure that has nothign to do with the install

@@michaelorozco9761 ok, sometimes a humming noise can be traced back to a loose outlet box causing a slight vibration which can present as a hum. If everything is tight and correct, we'd suggest calling Hampton Bay customer service. One other thing - is the fan connected to a switch?

We are not licensed electricians and if you are unsure about your wiring, we would suggest calling a licensed electrician. With that said, typically a red wire is a switch wire. If that is the case, you can cap off the house black wire and connect the receiver power wire to the red wire. That would allow you to turn the fan and light on/off using the switch. We don't recommend using a swtich with this fan because if the switch is turned off/on too quickly (within 4 seconds), the color temperature of the light may change.
