The new cover looks great. Right decision to replace instead of cleaning up the old one.
I thought so too! Thank you for watching.
Omg, your reaction to the lid popping off was priceless! That Fix It Guy and Paranormal investigations! 😱
It may follow me! Freaked me out for sure!
Great video brother. You cracked me up when that lid flew off
Dude that totally freaked me out!
Thank you for this video. My construction people left without putting the fan back up, which meant no bathroom light for days. Couldn't figure out what those wire things were for and now I do.
Thank you!! After five years of the cover not being on my exhaust fan that was the easiest thing I ever did
So glad this was able to help you out.
That was a nice upgrade! Thanks for showing us how to replace.
Your so welcome! Hope we can help again.
Thanks man this helped a ton! Really appreciate people like you!
Awesome! So glad we could help! I hope we can help again.
Thanks for the tips Brian. Upgrade looks great!
Thank you Ma! It does look a lot better!
Thanks for this video I couldn’t figure it out how to change the cover
You make it look so easy I keep on breaking it there so cheap on the platic
They are cheap. Wish they would have stuck with old screw type
Thank you so very much for the concise and informational video! This was such a help for someone who has never given their exhaust vent lid a second thought! 😂 Happy New Year to your loved ones and you!
thanks very much for posting this video! I just replaced a light bulb in the fan and when I tried to put the cover back it wouldn't stay up on the one side. I couldn't figure it out until I noticed on the video it has a dual metal spring catch and I only saw one mine (on the side that didn't catch). Another person at the house had yanked the cover down too far, pulling out the metal catch / bending the one side down all the way flat, so you couldn't see it was there. It was a challenge just to bend it back straight while standing on a step stool. But I was able to get it up ok now. Thanks again.
That is great this video was able to help. I hope we can help again. Thank you for checking us out.
Came for the fan grille. Got Twilight Zone bonus.
You got my sub for showing how to put the clip TY
Awesome. Thank you. So glad this helped out.
Hey Brian thanks for the great video you cracked me up when the top came off the little what knot 😂😂
Oh yeah bro it kinda freaked me out. Thank you for watching Britt!
Thanks, I'm not very handy but with your directions it was a breeze, 👍
That is great to hear. Hope we can help again.
This really helped me. Thanks
So glad to hear. Thank you for watching.
Great fix man
Thank you. Super simple, but thought it may help.
Thanks for the "How To" video cuz gettin this sumbitch back in been drivin me half batshit loony tryin to get it off for the last hour! Now, my next question is...
How do ya repair all the dammed holes I put in the ceilin with the hammer, pry bar n screwdrivers I used to get it off?
I need a drink.
LOL! expansion foam and duct tape!
nice but I jst replaced the fan motor in my ancient Broan exhaust unit. There are no holes for these retention springs and no room to drill holes for the new cover like this. I am thinking of just finding some white coloured screws or using velcro somehow.
Ty for the life of me I couldn't figure it out cuz u can't really c up there when ur pulling it down, n mine needed a serious cleaning.
Your welcome. I know it is crazy how dirty these things get in a short time.
Thanks
Your so welcome’. Hope we can help again.
How do you replace the springs??? if you need to put bigger springs in the fan grille?
You can replace the springs. It will be different on some fan covers. I will make a video on this soon. Thank you for watching.
Unfortunately my set up is different. Much more depth to my ceiling cover. I cannot reach down inside of it to reattach the wire retainer. Any thoughts?
These things can be the worst. That is a difficult situation.
i know it's been a minute, but what did you end up doing? i briefly looked for longer spring clips, but before spending another 20 bucks on clips that might not work, i was going to try to extend the existing clips somehow. just havent decided how yet.
Hello! Super easy! Now talk about how to replace an old cover that was NOT connected by springs - a center screw bolt holding pan with light bulb connection and cover. The cameo duct tape doesn’t look very good! Do not want to change the working fan, just cover. Currently experimenting on one bathroom with a non preferred method of flex glue to the popcorn-ish ceiling. Will use a razor blade to cut out if necessary and this works. Have been applying pressure to it for the past 16 hours. We shall see! Can you help make the other better with easier access? Oh... and no, duct tape is not really being used ... but thinking about it!
Oh wow. Lol! I would like to see that Camo duct tape fix. I will be fixing up and old one in my other bathroom soon. I hope it will help you.
Do you have to get a cover to exactly match the fan you have or can you just buy generic covers that would fit any brand of fan?
This one was the same brand a nu-tone. The cover actually cover less ceiling area, but was designed to be a replacement cover. What brand do you have? If you want send me a picture and I can try to help. Ufix247@gmail.com.
I wish it was that easy. I'm unable to get the cover on
Send me a picture of what your working with.
I have tried to get 2 covers in and they keep breaking. I can just barely get my tiny hands behind the cover on the first side got it in but the second I can't even get my fingers behind it to get the clip in. Help. So I try to tilt it and then it breaks again 🥴
That is weird. I know these type of covers are really funky to put on. Sorry your having such an issue. I’m going to start messing with this and see if I can come up with some easier way of doing this.
I have broken tabs off 3 trying to make this work. Anyone know a way to do this.
Sorry to hear that. I know they make ‘em cheap.
would be good if you could just show how to change, we dont need to assess the need
Thank you Mary I will work on that. hope this helped
I find the attachment mechanisms really cheap and flimsy
Oh they totally are! Not my favorite either!
Why not just show us how to do it without the detailed look at how dirty the old one is and your pointless speculation as to why
I think these are the worse design ever. I guess they designed only to make the consumers replace the item with someone’s help
Thanks
Anytime!
