I do not receive any type of compensation for product links I include. Maybe I should look into that? 🤔 Meanwhile, it would be great to get to 1,000 youtube subscribers so youtube can start paying me for ads run on my videos. If you could help me with that by hitting like, share, comment, and of course subscribe that would be terrific! Thank you!

In any case, I want to say thank you very much for this video. It was tremendous. My fan is running perfectly.

This is the fan I got on my birthday many years ago and one or more blades are bent now. Never installed. I bought the fan at Lowe's.

The armitage is a huge childhood fan for me because my grandmother used to have one and I remember going to lowes and picking it out myself and it had the oak blades facing down though

thanks for this. im getting this fan because the one in my room is literally older than me, the lightbulb cover is broken and i can’t have the speed too high because it wobbles around like crazy. i asked my dad for one and he said no, so im getting it myself and hopefully putting it up myself. wish me luck lol

How do you remove the cover piece to replace the light bulb?

@savemoneydiy1462 2 жыл бұрын

Twist left (counter clockwise as you are looking up at it) and pull down the cover. Sometimes it needs to find just the right spot, so if it hangs up adjust it a little left, little right, repeat, etc. until it comes off.

nice to know mine isn't the only one with a ceiling gap. medallion it is...

@Mixwell1983 Жыл бұрын

Thanks for the how to but how did you verify the box was weight rated? I have 2 rooms with regular light fixtures i wana swap for these fans but have gotten into it to see if the boxes are rated for a ceiling fan. I anticipate having to buy an old workbox rated fan to install BUT it'd be nice if i dug into and found that the builders actually used a rated box which I doubt.. All in all $60 for a 52" fan aint bad even if i have to get a proper box but i won't know until i take down the current lighting Hey I'd recognize that Harbor Freight (used to be) free 6 in 1 screwdriver anywhere. Great screwdriver and i have a few that i use ALL the time

We bought from the builder about 10 years ago and they had told us the box was rated for ceiling fans

Can you leave the washers on that paper adhesive and install the arm/blades over it

@savemoneydiy1462 2 жыл бұрын

You should remove the washers. That way, the washers will be on the arm side of the blade, not the motor side. I mean, if you totally just couldn't get the washers off or something maybe try leaving them in place and see what happens? But you should take them off. Thanks for the question. Good luck and stay cool!

I just don't believe my home has a 'bare/ground' wire. Perhaps they didn't ground everything in 1960? From what I read, the ground won't affect the performance, it's just a safety feature?? Please let me know when you can. And thanks for this video also!!

3:12 That will make your fan a lot more noisier, Because it doesn't get the correct voltage For it to run, That can wear out the motor and burn it out,

@Mixwell1983 Жыл бұрын

Im not sure what you're saying or the video, usually ceiling fan wiring uses 14/3 so you have a black hot for the fan and a hot red for the light etc as long as you have a 2 gang box and wiring.. On a 14/2 i understand they can be wired together on a single switch that provides power to both at which point you'd use the pull chain to dictate power.. Edit: i see your comment is old so O apologize for chimming in but I dont know if my comment was related to what you mentioned

@thejoshuawolfram3426 Жыл бұрын

I thought that was a dimmer switch and those are only designed for lights but not replying the correct voltage to a ceiling fan can warn it out because these spinner AC motors are not designed for low voltages.

@CeilingFanVideosOnYT 10 ай бұрын

The dimmer can burn out a motor by causing net DC, not by lowering voltage. Dimmer makes chopping current which causes hum. The fan control is capacitor based which lowers the voltage in a smooth way. Most internal 3 speed control are capacitor based and lowers the voltage to the motor.

I have an older house with only 2 wires in the ceiling. Black and white. No copper ground. Where would you connect the green ground wire coming from the fan motor. Perhaps ground it to a screw bolt

My house (1960 built) has the black and white (I'm doing a single switch), but I don't know what you mean by 'bare wire'..... Never done this before.

@The_Tr3nch Жыл бұрын

Bare wire should be just a wire without a sheath that you attach the green (ground) wire from the fan. If yours does not have a bare wire in the box, you can attach it directly to the box with another screw. It just needs to be grounded to metal.

What size bulb fits into that socket?

@savemoneydiy1462 Жыл бұрын

The size is called A15. It’s about 1 inch across at the base where it goes into the socket. It’s about 3.5 inches tall from contact point to tip. You need a short bulb like this so the shade can still fit over it. Something like this: GE Relax LED Ceiling Fan Light Bulbs, 5.5 Watts (60 Watt Equivalent) Soft White HD Light, Clear Finish, Medium Base, Dimmable (2 Pack) a.co/d/6e1D9iF
