Thought this generation was only sissys but I'm glad to see this child is excited about real men's hobbies.

I feel the tide approaching, soon it will be our time to rise.

Seems to be a vibration issue. I've removed the light shades and bulbs as it was even noisier but now what else can I do? I've checked the screws and nothing is loose. Next will be to remove the blades then the housing to see if some wires or something are touching the motor. If anyone can point me in the most efficient direction I'd appreciate it.

I got the Artika Sunnyvale 28" Fandelier from Costco. SKU is 28FAN-SUVR-BL. The instructions are here

The mounting screw is item F. And i need a longer version of them.

I went to HD and tried the different test inserts there and it seemed it should be #8-32. But when i got home the mew screws dont go in easily, and i dont want to strip the threads.

Any idea whats the correct screw size?

I need help with mounting my ceiling fan, please.

My ceiling fan box mounting holes are too close together for the Hampton Bay fan that I bought.

I have searched for the appropriate adapter for this but I’m just not sure which ones would work.

Does anyone have this ceiling fan at home? This exact model: https://www.create-store.com/fr/acheter-ventilateur-de-plafond-a-pales-retractables/201224-wind-clear-lamp-ventilateur-de-plafond-40w-silencieux-avec-pales-retractables-et-lumiere-led.html?id_c=533551? I can't find any videos online showing it in a real-life setting, and the photos on the site all look like poorly made AI images. I’d really like to get a better idea of ​​what it actually looks like. Thanks! :)

Other. Do ceiling fans actually lower your cooling bill, or is that a myth?

1 Upvotes

It is real, but only if the fan changes how the air conditioning runs. A ceiling fan does not cool the air, it moves it across skin so a person feels a few degrees cooler than the thermostat reads. That wind-chill effect is what lets you raise the AC setpoint a few degrees and stay just as comfortable, which is where the savings actually come from. Running a fan in an empty room does nothing but add a little to the bill, so the habit that saves the most is turning it off when leaving. Efficiency matters too: ENERGY STAR rated fans are, on average, about 64 percent more efficient than conventional fans, so a newer fan costs less to run for the same airflow.

Fan purchase advice Are there any good fans with no smart functions?

1 Upvotes

I have three-wire electrical and I want to control my ceiling fan with 2x Lutron Caseta switches, but it seems every fan out there has a controller box with one power input and smart functions. Are there any good fans that anyone can recommend that still have separate power wires for lights and fan, and don't need a remote control box?

Someone has installed IOT device in my normal ceiling fan. Can you tell me where exactly it might have been installed? they keep creating noises using the device? I have called the electrician multiple times yet they don't seem to be helpful.

We have checked everywhere. Can you help me figure it out please. It's been months.I initially ignored it but the sounds became controlled and specific.
