- Watch step-by-step how to install the Costco Avia II ceiling fan by Hunter Fan Company. Watch everything from how to wire the ceiling fan to how to control the ceiling fan. This easy to install ceiling fan will be up and cooling your room in no time.
For more troubleshooting tips, please refer to the installation manual that comes with the Avia II box.
Fun and cheery music, "Oh, look how easy it is the install the fan blades!" Said no one ever.
Still a good instructional video, though. Cheers!
This is my third fan Hunter from Costco. The instructional video could be improved. The announcer could go slower so you do not have to continue going back to try and catch what she said. All in all I did it myself and am happy with the features this fan has. Elii eating pull chains is a +.
This 50something gal installed this in about 3 hours. My goof occurred at 4:51 when I failed to connect the plugs from the motor to the light kit securely. I spent almost an hour trying to figure out why the light worked but the fan didn't. Went through all the troubleshooting steps. Removed the canopy and redid the wiring, checked the light switch box, etc., Finally, I took off the light kit and unplugged, re-plugged the plugs :) this time making sure they were snapped fully into place! It takes a little extra effort to push the connectors firmly together. Voila! The fan worked. It's usually the simplest solution, right?! Now that I'm an expert, I ordered one more of these (Costco) for the bedroom. BTW, it probably would've taken twice as long to install WITHOUT this video. The music didn't bother me at all. One thing I noticed was that in the printed illustration the receiver is placed differently than it is in the video. It makes sense that the label side of the receiver should face the ceiling, not the floor. So I went with the printed illustration on that part and not the video.
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.
Installed for my father in law. It’s a very good ceiling fan!!! Costco bought and approved be me!
Music way too loud compared to the person talking!!!
Tip: if you are sure you wired the light correctly, but it still won't turn on, consider replacing your light switch too. Not every light switch works with every light. My light switches that I had before did not work with LED lights, so I had to swap out both the light abd the switch.
Mine works, but there is a delay before the light comes on. Was that your issue to or did it not come on at all?
Who here got theirs from Costco?
Just installed it 10 minutes ago.
Hi @@leticiavazquez1941 Thanks for choosing a Hunter Fan! We hope you gets lots of enjoyment from it. Stay cool!
Not only did I get one, I liked them so much, I bought 2 more. With this video I was able to install them myself. 😉
Just installed one for a neighbor, installed with ease. Yes, it was purchased at Costco
Hi kya aap India m open kana chahte h please call me +919546668881
WHAT ARE THE 3 GROUNDING WIRES! someone please help me
The music is so loud that it's hard to hear the voice instruction.
I have switch to control light and fan separately but after replacing with hunter. I can't use switch anymore I need to use remote only. Did I miss wiring ? It is expected?
With the receiver thrown in there, the thing is a rats nest of wires.
Hey. My mom just got her fan and it was working all night till she tried to show me in the morning and I went to go look at the fan but it was dark so went to turn the lights on but it turned the fan off and now it won’t turn back on. Please help
The music is too loud!!! I can't hear the words!! Please improve the manual!!
Worst video ever WTF
Had to add a circuit and ceiling junction box, about to install fan next week.
I accidentally sat on the remote and dimmed the light hahah thanks for telling me how to fix it
I installed mine but the light does not stay on. If you press the light button on the remote, it just turns on and then off. What is the solution?
I cant align canopy with downroad.... any suggestions would be appreciated
This is a 7 min video but still took me 3 hrs to complete the job lol
What size of the light bulb in case I need a replacement?
Installed the fan and won't work. Rewired by following the manual and the video 3 times already and no go. Is this defective.
Yes the breaker is on. Light switch is on. Any advice?
My remote is not paired to my receiver. What do I do?
Did everything and it will not turn on .. going on 5th hour.. now cannot get the glass off . OVER IT
I didn’t install, tried to remove glass , impossible! Finally pushed it up & turned and it came off easily.
Is it possible to turn off the motion sensor for the light? It's very annoying when the light turns off automatically while I am still there, just not moving.
My ceiling bracket holes are 2 11/16 apart. The bracket sent have a 3in. difference. Is there an adapter available?
Can I get a longer downrod? My ceilings are 12" high. Maybe a 24" downrod?
Annoying loud background music
Installed ceiling fan exactly how it is on this video and fan or light will not work. Checked connections again and reinstalled and still not working.
My room has two switches installed, one for the light and one for the fan. How do I bypass the remote and wire each to their own switch?
Hi John. If you do not want to use the remote. You can remove the receiver and wire the fan directly to your wall switches. -Nancy
@@HunterFanCo Thank you, can you tell me which wire powers the fan and which one powers the light so I can connect each one to it's own switch.
Please email us at customercare@hunterfan.com with your model number for further assistance. -Nancy
Love the looks but absolute nightmare to install. Why does anybody have to wire a receiver? It's like buying a TV and you're required to wire a receiver for the remote to work. Please enlighten me, because I dont get it. And installing the blades is a nightmare. Fighting with gravity with moving angled blades is not a good design. The blades should be snap ons. I had have zero issues with my 20 year old Hampton Bays fans. They were just too old school looking.
Who's the rocket scientist who thought it would be smart to have the Reverse switch INSIDE the light fixture!?!?! Now I have to get a ladder and remove the light assembly twice a year... idiotic.
Crazy
what do we do with the steel cable
I hired an electrician to install this. But the speed is really slow. Is there anything I can do to make it faster? He suggested I skip the remote installation as I wanted 2 different wall switches to control the fan and light.
Hi Anitha, sorry to hear about the speed issue. For customer support call 1 (888) 830-1326 or email customercare@hunterfan.com, and they can assist with your specific model.
Eliminating a pull chain is a +.
What color are the blades on the fan, are they brown or gray?
Why the fucken music??
I got mine from Costco, Love the fan but the light is terribly dim. Can’t put a larger bulb in because it won’t accept it.
Got from Costco ... maybe it's got a bad reciever? I have wired mine up the same way I did an Identical one in another bedroom and it won't work. No power, no lights, remote inop, just kaput. Took down a perfectly good old style ceiling fan to put this one in. Bummer, Ive been over the video 5x and nothing. Looks like it's going back to Costco !!!!
The printed instructions that come boxed with the fan suck. I stared at the first page on installing the bracket for 15 minutes and still couldn't understand it.
Hello everyone, Does anyone have any idea why when I turn the light on, it only stays on for a few seconds
Same with me
They could cut out the music in the background
How about NO MUSIC FOR A EXPLANATION VIDEO!!!
Hello Hunter :) I have a Hunter Arcot fan. I love the looks. But it wobble so much, can I get help from anyone Swedish? :)
This thing is so noisy once it's turned on after a few months
The screws need to be better quality. While installing the fan, the 2 anchor screws for the ceiling bent and we had to replace them.
Do you have free direct shipping worldwide guys ?! Specially Meddle east (Asia) ?!
Hi Q8ty_Kw! Check out our shipping info here: support.hunterfan.com/hc/en-us/articles/115002291473-Where-do-you-ship-to-. Hope that helps!
My best friend has that fan in his bedroom except he has it on the Light side instead of the dark. It moves a good amount of air but isn’t extremely fast. I like the fan a lot
The background "music" is loud, annoying, and unnecessary.
Tried to rotate the glass cover to take it off and change bulbs but it just stops after turning an inch
i’m having the same problem. i want to change the bulbs but i can’t take the glass globe off
You have to hold the upper part of the fan while turning the glass
Wow, buying a Hunter fan was a mistake. First the manual looked like a schizophrenic modern art collage, and now these idiots have obnoxious elevator music blaring over the video instructions. I'm terrified that a company this sloppy now has something heavy hanging over my head.
why is the need of the music? very loud, annoying and distraction.
Agreed
Should be removing this video and remaking a new video with the updated hardware. Things have changed and this video does include the info
Got 4 of these from Costco and not happy with fan speed. The highest speed feels like a medium to me. Anyone else also has a similar problem.
Thanks for NOT showing how to re-pair the remote........ This video didn't help for my situation.
I'm thinking of making a how-to video that actually explains how the remote pairing works....
The Fan on/off w/ the up arrow pairing does NOT work with the remote K6266-02 (as stated in the manual). You have to take the battery cover off to use the PAIRing button.
The PAIRing button does the same function for PAIRing and UN-PAIRing. On this unit, a quick press/release is used.
If you hold the PAIRing button in for 5+ seconds or longer, the LEDs on the remote blink differently. Apparently this is for a feature that does not exist on the Avia II.
How to pair or un-pair:
1. Turn off the power for 10 seconds to the fan. This is done by a wall switch or a fuse box pending how your wiring is setup. If you have more than one fan, make sure the others are turned off or power is disconnected. You will do one fan at a time.
2. Within a minute or two of restoring power to the fan, press and release the PAIR button inside the remote.
3. Light blinks codes
--2 light blinks means the remote was UN-PAIRed
--3 light blinks means the remote was PAIRed. (I think the fan might turn on to low as well but it's easier to look at the light on this unit).
4. Wait 3 minutes after step 3 for the wireless unit to confirm setting.
You have to make sure the remote is UN-PAIRed from a fan before trying to PAIR it with a different fan. In my case, I had 2 remotes going to 1 fan and I needed the 2nd remote to go to the 2nd fan. So I had to UN-PAIR one of the remotes by following the steps above (2 blinking lights, then I waited 5 minutes to turn off/on the wall switch and verify the remote did not control the fan anymore). I then had to turn the power off to fan 1 and 2, then only turn fan 2 power on. I then pressed the PAIR button on remote 2 so it would PAIR with Fan 2. After doing this you'll want to turn on the power to both fans, wait a few minutes, then verify they work properly.
I'm assuming the unit can only do one thing at a time, which means you can't pair then try to press the button again to UN-PAIR or try to PAIR 2 remotes at the same time. You have to turn off the power, wait 10? seconds, then turn the power back on and do it again.
Also, make sure to UN-PAIR any remotes before trying to PAIR it up to a different fan.
@Hampson Life Thank you so much for this! I'm having the WORLD of issues with these fans! The house that I'm renting has them in every room and ALL of them flicker off. You can hear the whole unit drop power and then kick back on. It's irritating. But thank you for these steps laid out like this!
Thanks now if I could only get the men to look at this before they decide they know what they are doing. Ugh!
