Westinghouse Ceiling Fans

I have a 5 blade, 42" ceiling fan that seems to run much faster than the previous 4 blade, 52" ceiling fan. Wondering if I changed the blades, making the existing ceiling fan a 52", how would it effect the air flow.

My son broke my ceiling fan remote and I have no idea what to do. Can it be replaced or fixed? I’m not really finding anything online. It is a Hunter ceiling fan and the remote controls the fan and the light. It attaches to a plastic bracket on the wall that sits over the light switch. As far as I can tell, the fan and light are inoperable without the remote. Anyone know how to fix this issue?

Before gong to sleep at 10 P.M., manually switch on the ceiling fan and it must automatically OFF after ten minutes.Then again it must automatically ON after ten minutes. This process is to be continued till 6 A.M. until it is switched off manually. In order to make the above mentioned technology practical ,what equipment is required? What will be its approximate cost? In which address should I contact?

I just moved into a new condo and all of the rooms have ceiling fans with lights. The problem is that each room has a dual light switch but only one switch operates both functions of the ceiling fan/light. The last place I lived in in had the same switches but one operated the light and one operated the fan. Is there any way to accomplish this without rewiring?

My husband just built me a roof for my back porch, it’s a pretty low ceiling so it’s to short for a regular ceiling fan. I was thinking one of those enclosed ones that you can turn and point in different directions. They hang from a metal hook in the corner of a room. (Not a stand) Where can i get one?

We just moved into a home with a Nuvent ceiling fan and light. The ceiling fan only runs in the reverse direction meant for winter – no breeze for the summer. It has a remote but no reverse button and we can’t see a reverse button on the fan. Any ideas? Thank you.

New construction, but house is finished. Do I run it from an existing box in the attic? Off another ceiling fan?

I’m trying to convert a ceiling fan into a fan that just plugs into a wall. is this possible? I need it to work with a potentiometer (the dimmer was one we had used with the fan). are there any hazards I should look out for? (over heating due to run time or something) any websites you can provide would be awesome. thanks!
I already have all the parts, just need to know how to do the conversion.

I’ve recently bought a ceiling fan for my room. I’d like to draw on the blades something that could be seen when looking it. I can paint quite well, using Acrylic paint, I’ve already thought of a space theme.

Ceiling has ground, red, black, and green wires. Fan has black, white, and blue wires. Looking at ceiling wires, the green is connected to the ground-the fan had blue connected to black. Hooked blue/black fan to black ceiling and white fan to red ceiling, left green to ground. Light turned on but both switches on fan worked light and fan would not work-so what is the right combo here? Do not have instruction book anymore.

I am guessing that one is hot and the other not. But which wires to the fan to connect to the hot black in the ceiling. There are three main wires, the red, the black and the white. A green ground is also included too but that seems to be a different problem. Two wires on the old fan where together. Which two and do they connect to the hot? I know this is an out of date situation, but for the time being it is all we can manage.

Any advice on fixing this problem would be appreciated.

If you dont know what im talking about im talking about the little things at the end of the two chains that hang down from you ceiling fan. One chain is for the light and the other for the fan speed. My brother is the one who needs something but he doesn’t know what to put. What could he use, anything that you think would be good for this will work.
Thx for ur help.

My ceiling fan has a switch for moving the blades in both clockwise and counterclockwise direction. I’ve been told that if I run the fan in reverse, it will force the warm air downward. But which is reverse? Clockwise or counterclockwise?

There’s 2 chains dangling from our ceiling fan. One for the light and one for the fan. The one for the fan just got jerked too hard and it’s still up and inside but it’s obvious it’s been pulled a couple of inches away from where it was and we also can not turn the ceiling fan on now.

How do we reconnect it where it was – goes?

I just moved into a house and the room I’m sleeping in is too hot and I like to sleep in a colder climate. The ceiling is about 10 ft. high. I’ve never installed a ceiling fan before so I’m checking to see how much it would cost to get one installed for me. The only place I know that sells them is Lowe’s, do they install them for you if you pay an extra fee? If so, how much? Or what is the average a contractor who does that kind of job ask for?

I am trying to install a ceiling fan. This will be my very very first my project in mu life.
Only one web(home depot) shows how to support for the weight of a fan with using box and brace, however I still don’t get what I need and how to do. Any handy man, please help me !
Thanks

I have a pizzeria and i need to know if anyone knows how to mount a ceiling fan in the drop ceiling panels.

I installed a ceiling fan about 2 years ago. Everything worked fine. Here latley though, the fan will randomly shut off for a few hours then star back up? It isnt a remote controlled fan. Right now the fan doesnt work at all but i can still hear the motor humming. You can even put your hand on it and feel it vibrating frokm the motor working but the blades will not turn?

I’m installing a drop ceiling and I need to find a way to mount a ceiling fan from it. Are there any special brackets or specially made fans (with lights) available?

Hey guys… i need help installing a ceiling fan. I mainly need help on the wiring. I have four wires to connect (black, white, red and green) all coming from the ceiling. I have to connect those to the fan’s motor (black, white, green, black+white) Can someone please help me with this??
It does include light fixture!
There is only 3 wires from the ceiling and the 4th (green) is coming from the golden mounting plate.
I have 2 switches on the wall. Both my other rooms have dual switch installiation.

I’m trying to install a ceiling fan to replace a broken one that has never worked since I bought the house. The outlet box contains five wires: two black, two white and one bare copper for ground. The wiring diagram that came with the fan assumes I only have one black, one white and one for the switch, all matching the wires in the fan. Why is my outlet box different and how do I appropriately wire the fan with my setup?

My Mom and Step Dad are having an argument about which direction the ceiling fan has to turn during the summer. Is it clockwise or counter clockwise?

I have a new house that has two separate switches one for the light and another for a ceiling fan. There is a 3-wire (Red, Black, White and ground) at the existing ceiling fixture which is only using the red and white wires. The new ceiling fan has only a black and white wire from one side of the remote control box and then the normal three wires (white black and blue for connecting to the ceiling fan light). I would like a diagram to show which wires get connected to the ceiling fan?

The fan has about four wires total. The house is about 100yrs old. There are other fans in the house. This is a Hampton Bay ceiling fan. Can I ground the ceiling fan to the metal box I need to install in the ceiling?

My kitchen currently has a ceiling fan there, but there is no light there. I would like to replace the ceiling fan with a ceiling fan with a light? How easy is is this, and what extra wires need to be already in the wall?
I guess I want to know more than is it easy. But how do you do it.
