Westinghouse Ceiling Fans

We have a ceiling fan with a fan/light control on the wall. The light comes on briefly every time the fan speed is changed even though the light control is set to off.

I don’t have a ladder and don’t want to buy one just for cleaning the ceiling fan.

The fan is gross though. If I stand on the coffee table I can *just* about reach the fan with the tips of my fingers.

I am 6′6" which is why I can almost reach it when perched on coffee table.

Any ideas?

I have a basic ceiling fan and a new home, not new construction but new to me. The problem is when we had our electrician friend come over to install our other ceiling fans we discovered thre was no power source to the ceilings. Needless to say he installed power to most of the ceilings but to get to the attic in the master bedroom would take an act of God. (which we don’t have the time or money for at this time) I wanted to know if there was a way to connect a power cord to the fan and swag it across the ceiling to a power outlet in the wall. Do such things exist? If they do where can I purchase them and how do I get it to work with the fan that I have already, or do I need to purcahse a special model? HELP!

a ceiling fan in which i don’t have to use wires in the ceiling, looking for one that has a plug that can be plug into the wall.

I want to put a ceiling fan in my sons bedroom but I am not sure if I have to do anything to reinforce the ceiling or not?

What I mean is, we installed a ceiling fan that has 4 levels of speed. The problem is thatthe lowest setting is too fast, and the highest setting can almost move furniture. Does anyone know if there is a way to adjust the speed of a ceiling fan internally so that the settings are less drastic?

i just bought a harbor breeze ceiling fan from lowes i have a sloped ceiling that needed a 36 inch downpipe the problem is the wires for the motor house are not long enough to go through the downpipe for conection does this mean i have to get longer wires ?

i am trying to wire a 3-way switch in a ceiling fan that a previous roomate promised to fix and never did. the problem is he removed the switch and i have no idea how to reinstall the new one. he didn’t mark the wires. the fan has a lighting kit as well that needs the switch attached. thewires hanging down are as follows: 2 black wires, one white wire, one blue wire. somehow the 2 black wires and the blue wire went to the switch i am trying to replace but i don’t know how and really don’t wanna burn the house down. HELP!!!!!

In the Summer, do you want your ceiling fan to pull the air up, or push it down?

I"m putting a ceiling fan in and the hole in the electric box is stripped is there any way we can make the screw fit? HELP ME PLEASE!

I hooked up my ceiling fan to a 2 switch switch. And the only way I can get it to work is my black wire to my fan goes to my white wire in my ceiling and my white wire in my fan goes to my copper(ground) wire. So I don’t even use the black switch at all. Is that ok or is something crossed I tried everything. Thats the only way I can get the fan to come on at all

My ceiling fan pull cord broke. Unfortanately, it is still spinning how do i stop it? Also, which position should i have the switch that makes it suck up or blow down the air so it could make the room cooler?

Does anyone know where i could buy a ceiling fan, it has to be light wood and bronze, and not Ebay it has to be available in Ireland please help !! really stuck..

Thanks in advance

how in the HECK do you install a ceiling fan? is it something i could figure out… or something i should have a professional come do?! i already have the light fixture up i just dont know if all lights can have one put in or what the deal is!

I’m attempting to install a ceiling fan where an older existing one was. When I removed the old fan, there was no hole in the ceiling where an outlet box would be. There was only a white, black, and ground wire coming through a small hole in the ceiling. With the new fan I bought, I will need to install a box in order to support the weight of the fan. Obviously, I will need to cut a hole in the ceiling to install a box. What kind of box should I use? Also, is it possible to connect the fan to a wall switch considering all I have to work with is a white and black wire?

I have a new ceiling fan with a light kit on it. When I turn the fan on, it makes a noise (I think its the lights vibrating when the fan is on). What can I do to stop it?

I have just moved into a home built in 1952. All the light fixtures in the house are 12" square recessed lights placed in the middle of the room, which offer a minimal amount of light in each room at best. I decided to change out the lights with ceiling fans, however, I’ve run into a bit of a problem. There are only two wires coming from the fixture, and both are wrapped with black cloth. In the old fixture, the two wires formed hooks around the screws holding the light bulb fixture in place. None of this matches up to any ceiling fan I’ve seen. What do I do?

I just recently moved into a townhouse.
and in the bedroom, there is a plug for a ceiling fan to go, however i just want to hang paper lanterns from the ceiling and plug them in without having to trail the cords down the wall..

Is there any way that I can attach them through the ceiling fan outlet??
A way that possibly doesn’t involve me having to call a professional to do it??

Thank you!!!

I recently installed a ceiling fan in my great room, and it works just fine. The only problem is, when I have it on the High setting, it wobbles slightly and you can a click every once and while. Before I take all apart and put it back together, is there something specific that would cause this? I have some idea of what could cause it, but I’d like to gather some other opinions.

I am sleeping in my office and usually have a ceiling fan at home. I would like to replicate the sound on my computer so that I feel more like I’m at home.

My 3 year old gets warm at night and already sleeps directly under the fan, so I want to drop it down so that he gets the maximum effect and is more comfortable.

It’s an 8 foot ceiling, so I need about a 5 foot extension to drop it down far enough to keep him cool. It should be a good foot above his bed then.

My ceiling fan lights are a bright blue and I’d like them to black or chrome.

There aare no electrical wires going to in since it runs off of batteries so is there a way to deactivate it? Every night, the ceiling fan comes on by itself sometime when im asleep and its always freezing when i wake up in the morning. Please help me.
It also controls the lights, and the morons that had the house before me must’ve threw the manual away. And i looked all over the remote and cant find a company name or number.
