    I show you how easy it is to replace a fan yourself. I don't know what kind of fan this is, and I'm surprised so many of you care to opine on what it might be.

    Great breakdown. You saved my @$$. Previous owner precariously had our HEAVY Hunter 5 blade ceiling fan with a light fixture, hanging by a single screw and the cup in the ceiling was pulling out. I could not figure out how to disassemble this thing for the life of me. I just followed you step by step and now we can use our fan without fear of it slingshotting across the room.

    I love the WAY u expressed/explained the need for holding the fan while un wiring the electrical connections;
    "I have to one hand this- while I other hand that"....
    I would have stated it in that exact fashion... it works! ( it just caught me funny) great video....real life

    Curious, I should know this but want to ask. Turning off the Switch in the room turns off power to the HOT wire. But the neutral White wire can possibly still have power back feeding into them can't they? I know this from experience, the switch was off, I was still not touching wires, but got clumsy and touched a White and was shocked. There was 3 -12ga Whites twisted together coming from the ceiling, not just 1. So I suspect that should've been my warning, Secure the Breaker. I finished it, just being careful. The other two White neutral wires I suspect were coming from something that still had power on. Or was it coming all the way from the power panel? Since then I've been turning off breakers, but before that I had successfully done many with just turning off the switch.

    I followed the Hunter fan instructions ( replacing a fan/light with another fan/light) but ended up with a spare red wire coming out of the ceiling.
    What’s the red one for.

    • @MikesInventions
      @MikesInventions  4 года назад

      Hey there! Red wires on 120v circuits are traveler wires for 3-way switches. You must have a second switch somewhere that can control the light or the fan. Of course, I suppose it's possible that whoever installed it ran some wire that contained the red one and didn't hook it up at either end. Of course, if it's hooked up at the other end, you've got a dangerous problem and so you really need to figure out where that red wire goes. Hopefully to a 3 way switch. If not, hopefully it's not connected to anything on the other end, but if that's the case, it shouldn't be there anyway. Thanks for watching!

    I came here looking for instructions, on how to remove these old fans 1980's in a 1968 house with the big motors. I'm SOooo glad I found you Mike, I thought I was going to have to pay someone to remove it. Now I think I can get it off the ceiling. Those little bolts are whats holding it to the studs/ceiling .Hope I can get it down Sunday. Cause I have a Beautiful fan, I paid almost $600 bucks, by MinkaAire (Cirque),/George Kovacs. It has circular blades large and small, red/blue/yellow. google the name, You will be amazed how pretty it is. It won a Museum/Contest, for Artist, something or other, I forget. Cant wait to get it up in the living room, its a" show stopper". Thanks again Mike Thompson, if I have anymore questions, I will come back and ask you, thanks for all the help, love your videos..........(smile)

    • @MikesInventions
      @MikesInventions  6 лет назад

      A voltmeter is best, but you can just turn the lights/fan on, then when you kill the power with the breaker, the lights will be off. Then you'll know.

People really care that the old fan is a Hampton and the new fan is a Walmart??? And they care so much that they duplicate the previous ten posts saying the exact same thing???
