A ceiling fan.
Ceiling fans come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. They can be an integral part of the room. Design alone should not determine the purchase of a ceiling fan. Important things to consider when buying a ceiling fan include room size, blade size and the motor. The motor is the most important part of a ceiling fan, and proper installation is a must.
Instructions
1. Turn off the electricity at the breaker box. Remove any existing fixtures. Pull the existing wires down from the ceiling electrical box and unscrew the wire nuts from each wire. Use a circuit tester to confirm that there are live wires. Pull the electrical wires through the center of the mounting bracket and screw into place.
2. Attach the canopy by inserting the long canopy screws using a Phillips screwdriver. Push the wires from the electrical box down through the down rod. Thread the down rod into the motor coupling, making sure that it is tight. Insert the set screw to lock the down rod into place. Slide the ball attached to the down rod into the canopy opening.
3. Attach the wires from the electrical box to the wires of the ceiling fan. Attach the green ground wire from the ceiling fan to the copper ground wire from the ceiling. Twist the two wires together and secure with wire nut cap. Next, twist the two white wires together and secure with a wire nut cap. Repeat this step for the green wires.
4. Install the canopy hatch by inserting the screws with a Phillips screwdriver. Check to be sure there is no movement between the canopy and the ceiling. Turn the circuit breaker on and test the connection to be sure that there is electricity to the fan. You are now ready to install the remaining parts of the ceiling fan.
