First time I have fixed my fan without help getting help from my husband...thanks..👏👏

I seriously cant thank you enough! You really made this so easy for me. First time Ive ever cleaned my fan coz it was making a really horrible noise and now it actually feels brand new again!!! I did end up using a little bit of soap though, it was shocking to see how much filth and dust that came off but even the air its blowing out now is stronger (even on its lowest setting). Thank you for being a real one!

Oh my gosh! This video was SO helpful! When you started to go into the motor cover, I thought "okay-now he's going too far." Until I saw what was in there!! Believe it or not, mine was worse! Yuk. Thank you So much for posting!!

Thanks for saving me 30 dollars! I think what I took from your help the most was not how to actually go about disassembling, (because that's usually the easy part, you see a screw, unscrew it) but knowing that I can follow your lead without any risk. That's usually the most intimidating part of fixing something is for me, that unless I can watch someone else do it first, I'll be afraid to break something or zap myself by accident.

It's quiet, it really blows, it's elegant looking, kzfaq.infoUgkxmj9RYGCX25BElHkuWjHec-2_muyUGyCm remote is handy. Not too difficult to assemble (see below)The assembly instructions left out a few tips, IMHO (see photo for my tips)Oh, and be patient when you attach the cage halves together (last step). You might want to loosen the screw just a little bit before you start. It's awkward (don't drop it!), but you'll get it.

I can't thank you enough for this.. I cleaned my fan for the first time ever, all on my own😪... Pretty proud of myself😅... Thank you so much❤

For some dumb reason, I never thought about cleaning my standing fan. I had it on all the time, and it got extremely dirty and linty. To the point where I barely felt any air coming out. I am absolutely shocked at how much better my fan is working now that I gave it a super deep clean. It's crazy that I waited so long to do so becos the difference is incredible! Don't be a dummy like me 😂! Make sure all of your fans are cleaned, especially if you dont have aircon and going into summer!

*I like how quiet it is, how well it works and **Fastly.Cool** , This was perfect to help air out a guest room and to use instead of AC when I only want one room kept cool. Works great!*

This video give me the courage to open up and clean my good old fan. I will do it tomorrow morning. SUBSCRIBED.

Thank you! After almost 3 years of usage my fan takes a while to gain speed... cleaning is long due... this video got rid of any hesitation I had towards unassembling the fan to clean the motor

Thanks a lot, I just cleaned mine today and it's working like a champ.

Thank you for your video! It's informative. I just deep cleaned my stand fan now and currently putting the casing back. Thanks again!

Thanks for this bro! I just cleaned my fan and it feel soo much faster because the debris has cleared out

This very was very helpful

This worked great! Saved time and I even found my neighbor's pet hamster, "Mr Bigglesworth," ALIVE in my fan crud! Got him out and he's fine. Lost over a year ago. Safe.

Thank you.You made it look so easy for me as a woman to do my fans

This saved me a lot of money. Thank you.

Just did this for the first time. It looks like I sheared a sheep in here so it obviously needed it.😂 Thanks

Wow I was struggling till I saw this video ,thank you!👍💯👏

I never do deep clean 🥺 thanks for this info

My lasko standing fan has been making an obnoxious rattle/buzzing noise for months now, it gets better when I clean the blades. I’ve been wondering if I could take the housing off the motor and this video is helpful! Now I’m gonna go by some compressed hair and blast away all the lint and hair out of the motor and stuff

Thanks!

Thanks for the video, I had a squeaking fan and could not open beyond the blade. Found a rubber stopper that had a screw behind it. Cleaned and sprayed with WD40. Squeak gone.

Thanks

i just searched for this cuz i havent been cleaning mine for 8 years

Amazing 🤩 I love it because I need to clean my fan 🌾

Thank you so much! I'm a complete noob with these and tried to clean it without taking it apart but that didn't work haha

thanks budy i just now wash my fan just now my fan was ditry and now is clean. 50 like for you.

Its realy helpful

Thank you so much for showing how to clean the fan. I didn’t know how to remove the back grill, and you show Ed how. I will try to do all this tomorrow. Is it necessary to oil the parts? Or just clean will do?

I take something apart I'm never getting it back together again. I've learned my lesson many times

I'm a fan! 😂

Nice video. A-cleaning a go!

Thank you so much for this video, a real life saver 🥰

1:14 was that easy to pull off? I think mine is clamped down or something; I can't just pull the front off to remove it. Know anything about that?

When you opened the motor housing, I was like “Eww, look at all that dust and dirt and filth. Ugh! It’s a wonder that fan still works at all. Probably doesn’t anymore. Yuck!” But then at 1:44, when you said “EWW!” That sealed it for me. I just busted out laughing out loud so hard my sides hurt. But you’re right, though. Eww! How in the world did that fan, especially the motor get so filthy?

lol I'm excited to clean my fan, it doesn't feel like a fan anymore becuz it's a 100x dustier than that T_T. Thank you!

Thank u so much for this video. Very helpful for first timer like me 😊 icould’nt do it without your video. Credit to uncle fix it 😊🌈🫠

I don't touch the motor. But, after watching this, I may. Next year. I just cleaned my fans and put them away for the season.

Hi, will the fan casing rust after u wash it with water?

Interesting song

Could you use bike chain lubricant to oil your fan? (Its all I've got at the moment).

Is the oiling compulsory?

I cant seen to pull the face off after undoing the screws

If there's an oscillator switch there might be a screw inside to screw it out. I think for mine I'm supposed to pull the ehole thing out but I didn't dare do it because I might be wrong

Thank you

Was about to buy a new fan. Saved me like 30$

What is the name of the tool used to remove the fan cover?

I had a pedestal fan that was running pretty much 24/7. About 4 months later it's started to squeak and get rather noisy. Then just stopped spinning. Would this cleaning method and oiling ensure it'll work again? Or no promises? After the cleaning and oil treatment I would suggest to everyone is turn it on and make sure it's spinning again before putting everything back together.

I have a lasko pedestal fan with a metal front cover & plastic back cover. There are no clips to remove the cover just plastic pieces holding it in place. How can I remove the metal cover without breaking the plastic backing?

We've got an older unit that has gotten weaker and weaker on its lowest speed. I clean the blades and cage frequently enough but have not taken apart the casing to get at the other bits yet. I wonder, might it be necessary to clean motor as well?

I'm assuming in this video you cleaned a working fan. Well my fan is completely dead, I removed the first couple of parts on my own (up until the part with screws) and cleaned out hair and dust, but it still doesn't work at all when I plug it in. Should I bother unscrewing the internal parts to clean or is it just dead at this point? I'm a real cheapskate and hate spending money if I don't have to, lol.

Is the oil safe to use?

my motor doesn't have a screw case it only has a plastic thing in the back help

Is it ok if we replace the oil with WD40 spray?

I can’t remove the blades for some reason, why is that?

Can i use wd40 instead of the singer oil?

The blade is unoriginal is from an older 2004 kdk fan

Can you use any kind of oil?.Thx

How much is capacitor for mistral fan ?

Funny I have a mistral but a smaller one

Mine Soo hard to open 😭

I tried it but the top part was not coming off l tried to clean it from outside but it's still not working.

I was thinking, why remove the back? Then you opened it😱😱😱

I never take the motor apart, I just clean the fan. 🤔

For some reason I can't remove the bolt that connects the neck 😂

My fan motor heats up pretty fast , could you please help

Are the blades fixed at wrong side of fan?, or it doesnt matter which way...lol

Should of shown you unplugged the fan first! As people are stupid! 😂

Cleaning your fan with a bag

Omg so I always take off the front and back covers and the blades and clean them. But everytime I looked online about cleaning the back motor part, everyone just said to vacuum it or oil it (which you shouldnt do a lot, the oil can trap dust and make worse problems). I thought I would electrocute myself even if it were unplugged, by the way people talked. Im an idiot lol, but I just took that cover off and it was NASTY. No amount of vacuum would help that. Thanks!!!
