    Ease of install, I would say the Seasons line from HD supply is the one. Typical install is 15 minutes or less. The blade brackets are preinstalled on the motor. The blades have a twist lock on them. I typically install the light kit on the floor, hang it, add blades, chains, globes and bulbs and I'm out.

      would have been nice to have that type of junk 25+ years ago, 9 million screws, fiber and lock washers all installed by hand and screw driver. only adding to the fun 20' high vaulted ceilings and mile long down rods :((

    My wires are always different colors than what videos like this show. I can do the fan but I’m definitely no electrician. Can you make a video that explains the different color combinations of what connects to what ( color wise ) and maybe explain why it is that way?

    • @LexVance
      @LexVance  ปีที่แล้ว

      Different colors for different states due to the codes. Here is Florida, black is hot, white is neutral, green is ground and red goes to blue for light kit.

    Hey I was wondering how someone would get into this trade? I currently do maintenance at a factory third shift for a while now but the pay isn’t that great and I put in 60+ hours a week. I keep seeing jobs in my area for residential maintenance and did some research and it seems like something I’d be interested in. The only thing I’m not well versed in is hvac systems. Is there a good reliable way I can learn the skills I need for for the job?

    • @LexVance

      Yes, most companies will pay for your HVAC EPA course to get you certified. Also, TH-cam has tons of HVAC training videos. My channel has tons of HVAC training videos as well. Just start putting in applications. You'll get hired. Thank you so much for watching Jason!

    snap on blades would have been nice 25+ years ago. mumbles something about whole developments and multi-unit condos with 4 to 10+ fans per unit and spending months just assembling and hanging fans (as part of finish install). nothing was easy then and cordless tools were 9.6 and 12v drills with not enough batteries! screw drivers it was.
    **ALSO, the installer hanger hook is great, as is other mounting types, we cut and bent metal clothes hanger sections in large crude S hooks. I probably still have some in a tool/junk box and other places.

    Looks great, and with a brighter bulb installed that’s all the light you need. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxWF88GpljEn-0o34vtLFazEQ5h5Q33SjU As far as ease of installation- this was my first ceiling fan and it took about 3 hours because I had no idea what I was doing and also it’s helpful to have a second set of hands and a magnetic drill bit. Works great.
