Do you own room that might use a ceiling fan? Its not difficult to install a ceiling fan yourself if you are preparing to replace a light fixture. Most of the wiring will already be available, therefore the only challenge will be replacing the pre-existing workbox with one that is authorized for the weight of a ceiling fan. Hanging your all new ceiling fan on an established box that won't support the additional weight of the fan could result in disaster. Before you start your project, go through the directions for the fan you have bought, and make certain that you have all of the needed tools.

If you are setting up the fan over a cathedral ceiling, you may need to purchase additional parts for extending the fan down lower. Once you are all set for the real installation, ensure that the breaker is turned off, so no power is getting to the light you are swapping. Remove the light fixture, and verify if the workbox that is already there can take on the extra weight. Nearly all workboxes are not aimed for ceiling fans, you will need extra support. This is usually done rather quickly if you have admittance to the attic, and are able to get to the location of the new fan.

All you need to do, is nail a 2x4 within the ceiling rafters, so it touches the top of the workbox. As soon as the 2x4 is nicely anchored, prop the workbox to the 2x4. If you did it accurately, the body weight of the fan should be efficiently supported by the 2x4 wood and screws. If you dont get entry to the attic, you will need to place a cross bracing in your ceiling. It is more difficult to do and may not be that protected but its the best option if you have no attic admittance.

When you have put the fan together according to the instructions, you are ready to install the fan to your light fixture. The issue is to store the fan while attaching the wiring. The difficulty is depending on the type of fan you get, whether it is a clinging frame or a fan that has a bracket with a J hook. Many fans, you will see a wall mount switch using a chain to regulate the speed of the fan. If you need a light kit along with your fan, they can be monitored by either chain or wall switch.

After that, just stick to the wiring directions, usually as fundamental as connecting the two black wires, the two white wires, and also the two ground wires. Once you have completed the wiring, all you need to do now is attach the blades. Once this is all done, it is time to change the breaker back on to see if it works.
