*Love it! Keeps the room very **Fastly.Cool** . The manual states it comes with a year warranty and 5 year part replacement. The compressor makes the typical sound...small price to pay for AC.*
Thank you for giving such clear and detailed instructions. I am not very confident when it comes to anything electrical but you give me hope that I can tackle replacing my two older ceiling fans.
Thank you so much for making that video. It would have taken me 8 hours, but did it in 3. The only thing that gave me problems was that my house only had the Black, White & Copper wires so I was way confused as the fan came with Black, White, Blue, and 2 green wires. This is where I took forever. Luckily I called my buddy, and he told me how to wire it. Nonetheless, your video was so helpful. Thanks again. Louie from Armenia, Colombia here, and grateful.
Thank you so much, I was able to get mine up in no time. You're a real one 💯🤙
Thanks for the help! The wiring can be intimidating for me, this helped a lot!
Thank you for taking the time to do this video
You always make my projects so much easier, Thank you, Paul NS Canada
Also, if there are multiple whites (neutrals), make SURE that other circuits that may be hot still, are NOT on.
Otherwise, you could create a "floating neutral" for the other devices and overvoltage the other devices due to them being on different lines (L1 and L2 devices need a return or neutral).
Great video!!! Thank you.
You somehow manage to make the video I need right before I need it, yet again
get out of my head!
Just kidding, you can stay, you're cool lol
Thanks, super helpful only took me 3 bourse
Very helpful, thank you
You Bet!
I’m actually a fan collector myself and I actually know how to fix them
Great video
Thanks. Great info
I ❤ that guys mustache. I bet his girlfriend loves it too. 😂
That is cool!
Thanks!
Thank you this is a great video. I have a question regarding the ground wire that extends from the ceiling power. Does that screw directly to the ground screw of the ceiling box? Thanks again.
Very nice info and video, well done!! Now, its my turn to see if I can follow your steps to success in replacing my 40+ year old ceiling fan thats worked flawlessly up until recently. [ by the way, I'm in Phoenix metro where fans are almost as important as water ]
( think my new Hunter ceiling fan will last half as long?) THANK YOU !
Thanks
This was absolutely fantastic. I have 3 ceiling fans to replace. I need this type of detail to take care of it myself. Is the same process for changing a light fixture on the ceiling. I have a light in the corridor that has a bowl over the bulbs and wanted to switch for something more up to date. Also, is 'black' always 'hot' and 'white' always neutral?
Great job, it’s never that easy for me😱
Yeah, it is a bummer when you remove the old one and the electrical box is hanging on by a thread
Where is the link? Great job walking threw this nailed it!
Below the video you should see the link(s) in what TH-cam calls the video description.
I have one question about this particular fan. Does the motor still rot after putting the screws in through the bracket
Thanks for a great and easy to follow video 😁 My question is I just installed my Hunter Crestfield 52” fan with light kit ( #51020 ), and was wondering if there was a way to make the LED lights on it dimmable with a wall dimmer switch( without a remote unit)? Thanks again for sharing with us…Joe
Is there a cap that comes with it, to use, without putting up the lights if needed?
I don't understand why they allow the motor to wobble in the housing? The harbor breeze brand I took down had 3 nuts nicely securing it to the base
Before step one... do you have a video for what to do if the original ceiling fan was mounted incorrectly and not securely?
do you think i could install a remote?
Some of my ceiling fan boxes didn't come with mounting screws for the fan bracket. Do they come with the fan box, or the fan itself? Thanks!
My fan lights are 42 inches but they’re still flickering and I don’t have that trans Duser that’s inside but they still flicker ?????
That looks like my fans and lights in my room
I need help wiring a ceiling fan with a light and a light switch a single light switch. It appears that the light switch works the fan and the light? When I turn the switch on if the light on the fan it’s on the light will come on if the fan is running it will start running when I put the switch up. So if my fans running and or my light is on and I flipped the switch off everything goes off.
My wires coming out of the ceiling or a black and white a green and a blue.
My fan/light unit, has a ground a white a black and a blue wires.
How do I hook these wires together?
Thank you
I have the exact ceiling fan, when I turn on the fan there’s a loud clicking noise. Do you have any suggestions
What is causing this noise
I got this same fan and my old ceiling fan only had three wires that connected to it but the new fan has four how should I go about that
You will bring together the 2 hot wires from the fan and connect them together with the hot wire coming from the electrical box. Sounds like you only have 1 wall switch which will control the power for the fan and light at the same time opposed to separately if you had 2 switches. Then you can use the pull chains to chain the fan setting as it relates to the light and vice versa. Caution ⚠️ I am assuming your setup since I don’t have any pictures so be careful as always when working with electrical.
Why didn't you use Wago lever nuts for this installation?
Does yours wobble a little ?
Do u always choose Hunter brand ceiling fans?
Do u know anything bout "home decorators collections" brand? As in...quality? Or any feeback really
Also, why dobt u try using threadlock on the screws so the fan blades dont get loose?
I lean towards Hunter, half from availability and half from good experience in the past. I am not super experienced with home decorators collections. When it comes to fan I try to go mid price and stay away from the low end. Best of luck!
Hi Scott. I installed the mounting bracket and the motor into the cradle. When I screwed in the bolts to secure the square top in the cradle it still moved up and down a bit. Is this normal? I was expecting no movement once I secured the screws. My wife thought it might be to allow it to rock slightly and not be completely rigid in the cradle. What’s your take. I thought maybe I made an error. Thanks
That is normal, the weight of the fan will hold it firmly in the bracket.
Good question, I had the same one and my wife thought the same thing🤔😎
This helped me but my question is I have a harbor Breeze which has light kit. The fan works but the light kit does not. This has a type of plug to connect the fan and the light. I purchased a new remote but that did not work either. So can I remove the wire plug and wire it together so I don’t need the remote and maybe it will work.
Hi Michele, if you remove the top cover plate then you will most likely find the black remote receiver box. You can remove that box and as you mentioned just wire the fan directly to the wires coming from you switches. The wiring should be similar or exactly the same to the one in the video. Let me know if you have any other questions 👍
@@EverydayHomeRepairs thanks for your help. So you say disconnect the black box. It has a red and a white wire going to the black box. What do I do with them? Do I put them together?
Hey Michele, did your controller only control the fan or the light and the fan?
Also, might help us get through this project by jumping on our Facebook group “Everyday Home Repairs Community.” Then you can add pictures and we can get you back up and running. Without pics it’s tough.
@@EverydayHomeRepairs Thank you for all your help. I have given up on this. I have tried everything. The fan works just not the light. I will have to replace it. Thanks for all your help
nice hugger
What did you do with the Old Fan?
I think I still have 3 of the motors sitting in the garage. Usually give them to a guy who scraps metal in the area.
@@EverydayHomeRepairs sell vintage appliances you can make good money
@@erickmorton8085
That fan is very generic, I own a Westinghouse Casanova Supreme, the newest ceiling fan that looks similar
wall switches for light and fan ?
Hey Mike, for this install I had 2 switches some installs you might only have one switch especially if you are replacing a light with a fan. If this is your instance do check the electrical box to make sure it can carry the weight of a fan.
Is it possible to install a universal remote kit on this fan?
Does not have a transducer on it, but they still flicker????
They call it a power eliminator, but I don’t have it, but they still flicker
Nice arms...
It didnt install the remote reciever. I gotta start all over again
Sorry for being an idiot, so if I don't have a red wire from the box and only rely on chains to operate the fan, how does the color wiring work again? Thanks ahead of time
Video is informative. What is the weight of the new hunter ceiling fan before installation!?
I ran into a problem with the screws that are supposed to hold the motor mount in place. they do not actually do anything - they don't screw into the mount, or over the mount. I ended up with it working, but a clicking everytime the blades turned. Any suggestions? thx
I had the same problem. Clicking with every fan rotation…annoying. Were you able to fix it? If so, how? I need the same fix.
@@colleenwade9424 Unfortunately, I did not fix it but we had an electrician in for something else and it took him 10 min, but I was working while he did it, so I don't know what he did, sorry!
The hardest part is the wiring 😟I couldn’t see them
Larry Tadlock it doesn't have a pole
This fan is a hugger not a flush mount still a good vid :)
Scott do you have a sister named Tammy Hernandez?
Second video I watched. You really need to have an electrician look over your videos before you post em. You have errors that in your installation will not give you problems in this instance, but in another case if you have a switch that has fan speed and light dimmer or a specialized fan speed dimmer you just flip flopped the fan motor and light. Fans are almost always wired as black is the motor, white is the neutral, blue is the LIGHT, and green is ground. ALWAYS look at the wiring diagram that comes with the fan first. Cheap fans like hunter you can get away with it because its probably wired as two single pole switches on the wall which is why you have 14-3 return romex wire coming to your fan. But you don't want a fan speed adjuster controlling your light, or a light dimmer controlling your fan motor, especially if you spent some good money on a fan. Never test a half assembled anything before you finish assembling it. If you mess it up and it doesn't work you take it down and apart and trouble shoot a mistake, best yet call a professional. You don't get up on a ladder on a turn on a motor to a half assembled fan and try to screw in a light bulb with the switches on when your making a how to video for people not in the industry, super irresponsible. You need to be a little more responsible with your videos. The instructions manual from hunter, that you bypassed, is better than this. I'm not going to watch any more of your videos. But you really need to not make how to videos without a licensed electrician looking over it at least. Electricity is dangerous, and sorry to say but the fact is you are not a qualified person to make how to videos on electrical work.
Thanks for the feedback
wheres youre video on fans???

THE OLDER FAN WAS BETTER QUALITY THAN THE CHINA PRIDE YOU GOT
