How to Install a Ceiling Fan - A Simple Guide

A Complete manual on how to install a Ceiling Fan may take more than just an article; it may all even take up an entire booklet. Let me just give you a simple, no-nonsense essential guide in installing a ceiling fan. Anyway, your ceiling fan manual will do the detailed explaining for you.

Speaking of a ceiling fan manual, all ceiling fans come with a manual (especially the new ones). The manual will cover the topics on how to assemble the fan and how to install a ceiling fan properly. The first thing you have to do read your manual carefully. Every kind of ceiling fan has a different manual so you also have to make sure that you are reading the manual that is designed for the ceiling fan that you will install. After which, prepare some necessary tools for your ceiling fan installation such as screw drivers, a step ladder, wire strippers, circuit testers and a drill. Next is to follow the instructions on how to assemble the ceiling fan. Then after the assembled ceiling fan is all set, do not forget to SWITCH OFF the electricity on the main circuit panel or the area where you will be working on. This is very important because you should be working without electricity flowing to prevent electrocution. Before installing a ceiling fan, be sure that you first observe this safety precaution.

Once done with the ceiling fan assembly and the turning off of the electrical supply, you will then need to work on ceiling fan installation itself. This phase includes the wiring. You should be able to determine which ceiling fan wires go with your house wires. The basic principle when working with wires is that you just have to match colors. For example, ceiling fans typically have black wires and these black wires normally go with the black wires of your main circuit and so on and so forth. The only complication you might encounter is when you circuit has become a little complex with the addition of the light fixtures. But no need to worry though, the manual should thoroughly cover that topic too as it is still a part of how to install a ceiling fan.

After the wirings and after abiding by the manual on how to install a ceiling fan, be sure to never forget to tighten screws and attach appropriate washers to prevent the fan from falling or wobbling. After making sure that all everything is in place, from the fan's blades to the wirings and to screws, you can now get ready to turn on your ceiling fan and enjoy the benefits it brings.
