This particular model is a Fanimation SInger 2, model number 0581598. I am very happy with it (this is my second one I have installed). It has very nice hardware, well put together, remote control, and neither has required balancing. Works great
I didn’t even open the manual after watching this! One of the best, most thorough tutorials I’ve ever watched.... and that’s a lot! Watched once start to end then again pausing as I went through already pretty much knowing what to do from the first viewing. As you said, it’s pretty much a standard install (I might even say easier than some) except for a few more blades.
We’ve had installed all of about 3 hours now, but our initial review on the fan is, just wow! Really nice!
Anyway.... Thank you!!!
Thank you. I appreciate the comment. I love these fans. They have been great
So we just installed this fan but it had the remote configuration. Thank you for this tutorial. Extremely helpful. I wish I would've gotten the design without the control. It made it even harder to put due to all the wires. Your video is a lifesaver.
Thanks to you, we were able to successfully change the frequency setting!!! The instruction manual was completely useless for that task...so big time THANK YOU!!!
BirdStats I’m glad the video helped 👍🏼
Thank you very much, after a long day at work I was cross eyed and the light kit was kicking my butt trying to read it from the instructions. I should have watched your video an hour ago!
Dude! Best instructional video ever! I bought the same exact fan. Your video helped me a great deal. Now I have 3 FANAMATIONS Fans in my new house.
Thank you! I’m glad to hear that. I really enjoy the two I have! Thanks for watching and glad to hear it was a worthwhile video
I enjoyed watching the install so helpful Boss. I love this fan i might get me one too im sure this one moves a ton of air.😀
Thank you for taking your time and explaining everything ! 👍
I’m glad the video was helpful for you. Thanks for watching
Huge thank you because of this video I installed mine today without any problems
Sir..best instructional video ever.

Thank you very much!! This video helped me tremendously in installing this fan. You are a gentleman and a scholar. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I’m glad you enjoyed it 😇
Thank you. great vid. way better than the booklet. No BS. voice and camera angles were good
Thank you because my wife and I were struggling to get our fan up.
Dewinters Ashford I’m glad you found the video helpful.
I need to change the dip switch on the fan because I have two fans in close proximity. I can't seem to locate the dip switch inside the fan. Can you direct me to it?
Thanks. This helped a ton. Had a newer version but thanks you
Good step by step ceiling fan installation but it is Missing receiver installation which should be installed after the ceiling bracket that hold the fan to the ceiling🤔
The video explains that the ceiling bracket is needed and was pre-Installed when the home was built
@@dannyjohnsonsgarage the remote control receiver that I’m talking about it’s what allow you to use a the remote control. I’m not talking about the electrical octagonal box. Mine came with that receiver, but still easy to install.
Excellent instructions.. Thank you very much.
Ragav Gopalan I’m very glad you found the video!
Great thanks good instruction. Just installed one!
JUCKER HAWAI'I I’m glad you found the video and it helped out. Good job on your install 👍🏼
It’s Slinger v2 by the way.
Very educational explanation, thank you very much did help a lot
+FERN LOO great. Thank you for watching. Glad it was worthwhile
Thank you so much. What a help you were!
Thank you. I’m glad to hear that!
Thank you. This was helpful.
I’m glad to hear that. Thanks and glad you enjoyed the video
Thank u so much
Great video thank you for sharing. I have a question about its functionality when you turn on the wall switch. Does the fan go back to the last setting it was on when the switch was turned off (e.g., if the light was on when you turned off the wall switch does the light turn back on when you turn on the wall switch?). This information is important to me because I am looking to replace WiFi dimmer switch I have now with a on/off WiFi switch but I would only do that if it keeps the same settings as when it was turned off.
I just turned mine to full blast with the light on and flipped the switch. I turned it back on and it went back to the highest setting with the light on, so I’ll say that’s what it does.. unless it changes from being off for a long time. That’s what it just did now
This was a great video. Great job!@
Thanks! Glad you found it
Great video!!!!!
Thank you. Thanks for watching!
How is the airflow on this fan at the high speed settings? It looks like you have standard ceiling height and didn’t use the optional longer rods so I was wondering if you were still able to get good airflow? I’ve read on some reviews from Lowe’s on this exact fan that some people were complaining about poor airflow since they didn’t use a longer rod. Thanks for the great video!
MP Guzman I have 9’ ceilings, which puts the fan about 7.5” above the ground . I find the airflow excellent on high. My wife is often telling me to turn it off after a few minutes. I’m very pleased with it
Best instructional video I've seen!! Is the down rod on yours 6" or 12"? I have 9ft ceiling. Is 12" too long? Thx for the video!!
Brent Mckinney I will measure it when I get home. I have 9’ ceilings in my house and it’s perfect.
@@dannyjohnsonsgarage that's ok. So many reviews say to get the 12" for better airflow. Just don't want it to be too low. Thx
Brent Mckinney I measured mine and the rod is 6”
It says 16 speeds but only 6 buttons to adjust the speed. I’ve looked all over to see why they say 16 speeds..
we have installed 4 of these within 10-15 of each other on a patio. any suggestions for programming the remotes so all 4 will work separately ?
david gains Yes. Watch at 27:47 and I talk about setting the “dip switch” which allows you to program each remote with a specific code you choose
@@dannyjohnsonsgarage I see where to adjust the dip, but I don’t know how each fan knows which dip Is for which fan.
My fan's light keeps randomly turning on. Can you help me make sense of it?
Mine would too, so I flip the wall switch to keep it off unless I’m using it. I think it might just pick up random frequencies from other things
Great video i have the same fan and we can not program it to the remote any suggestion thanks
Did you see the dip switch you need to flip at 27:50 in the video?
Just bought this fan for the porch. Poor air flow for such an expensive fan!!
I have a separate switches for the fan and the light, so should I only connect the one white power wire to the fan and cap the other one off ? I seen you do that in your video just wonder if this is a must.
I recall since this has the remote for the light that’s how it’s done.
I have the exact fan but it's spinning the wrong way. I tried pushing the Reverse button on the remote and the fan seems like it's trying to reverse but it ends up going in the same direction as before. Do you have any advice?
Mine had done that too a few times and I press the stop button, reverse button once the blades have stopped, and sometimes give it a small push in the right direction. If it still fights it and tries to spin the wrong direction, I hit the reverse button again. I have also turned the switch off for power during the process, and then only use the wall switch to turn the fan on and off
@@dannyjohnsonsgarage thank you so much! It worked!
Do I do anything with the red wire from the ceiling? Looks like the red wire has the power.
This fan has a remote for the light. If you have a separate switch to control the fan and one For the lights it won’t be used for this fan. This is how to wire it for two switches (so you’ll probably ignore one of the wires) th-cam.com/video/Qt3ESxL6Kkc/w-d-xo.html
Do you think that the 3000K color light kit used could be easily swapped with a 5000k color light kit? Want it to match the rest of the house lights.
Would like to swap with something like what’s linked below off of Amazon.
Silverlite 5.5",23W,5000K,1800LM,120V,CRI80,Dimmable LED Light Engine,Retrofit Light Kit for Ceiling Flush Light,Ceiling Fan Light,Pendant,Lantern,Garden Light, 6.73" Corner to Corner www.amazon.com/dp/B06XTBCPDW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_bhKbEbSTQRKRR
I'm not sure what kind of wiring would be necessary or if it would fit in the original lens, but it may be worth a try!
Danny Johnson I know I wouldn’t be able to use the snap in connectors that they give, but I think it may still be possible. So hard to find a ceiling fan that has 5000K color. I just need to figure out what size to buy for that ceiling fan first. Haven’t bought the fan yet so I’ll have to measure it after I buy it. Amazon sells different sizes. My best guess is the 5.5” by looking at it, but I don’t know. Maybe the 4”
Quick question buddy I have been problems with my fan they star the light by then self in the middle of the night like 2 or 3 times and I don’t know why
HÉCTOR Cuba Mine has done that too. I’m wondering if it’s from someone’s garage door opener frequency or airplanes radio frequency. If it’s a problem I can turn the switch off
I want to buy one of these for my family in Brazil which is 220V. Will it work there there?
You will need a good converter. When I lived in Uruguay I had a converter for my hair dryer but it still burned it up.
I have one of the older versions of this fan. With the bigger globe and fluorescent bulb. It was hung many years ago but never used past the first weeks after install as the home has been vacant since.
Im having issues getting the remote to sync and operate the fan. Fresh battery in remote. If the bulb is blown will that stop it from syncing?
LordDeadSpider does it have the dip switch in the back like an older garage door opener?
Danny Johnson The remote looks exactly as yours in the video. Only thing is, mine does not have that yellow sticker. There is a small hole there.
I had one of these fans Installed in my room and it works perfectly fine but the fan makes some high frequency noise like a dog whistle and its really annoying my dad thinks I'm crazy cause I'm the only one that can hear it. Is there a way to fix it?
DrinkingWater Is it the light? Or just when it turns on. I think I’ve heard it too
@@dannyjohnsonsgarage the noise starts when I have the fan on and the light off or if the light is on by itself
@@drinkingwater5860 Yeah, I hear it on mine too. You aren't crazy ha ha.
I have a RED a BLACK and a WHITE wire coming out of my ceiling, what do I do with the red one ? My old fan had a separate light kit and no remote. I have three wall switches but only one operates the fixture.
Hank Ford This is what I found “If you do not wish to have a light kit on the ceiling fan, but do wish to turn it off and on with the wall switch, connect the black wire from the fan to the red wire in the ceiling box. Put a wire nut on the exposed portion of the black wire in the ceiling box. Connect white to white and green/copper to green/copper.”
@@dannyjohnsonsgarage I made a mistake in my original post, I have two black, a red and a white coming out of the ceiling.
My fan won't spin :( light works
I have more color wiring than only white black and green. I have yellow, brown, red, blue and grey.
It’s usually when you want a separate switch to turn on the light only (not needed with the remote). You can see it in this video th-cam.com/video/Qt3ESxL6Kkc/w-d-xo.html
