Useful Tips to INSTALL or REPLACE the Ceiling Fan
A ceiling fan looks stylish and
functional also adds an extra décor to your room. Ceiling fans are heavy
to fix so they require some additional support. When you choose the fan make
sure that it is convenient for your room. The larger the room, the bigger the
fan, so take an exact measurement to fit the longest wall in the room.
If you are planning to install the
ceiling fan that already has an existing outlet then it is same as wiring any
ceiling fixture. If the room doesn’t have the overhead box, then install the
electrical box and fix the wires through the walls and across the ceiling.
To install and replace the
ceiling fixture follow these tips:
Turn off the power at the fuse or circuit panel:
When you fix the ceiling fan first
thing to consider is where you will be getting power. Because you may find a
lot of pairs of wires in the ceiling box, so some may be wired to the circuits
other than the one you are using. It is a good idea to use a voltage tester just
to check the screw terminals on the side of the switch. Make sure that they are
not electrically charged if you are sure then gently push the switch and wire
out of the box. If the wires are mounted to the back of the switch then push
the screwdriver into the rectangular slots next to the wire holes.
