Can you come lay mines please?
Lol it's not too bad to do!
Awesome solution sir
Thanks!
Thats interesting. Why did you make it a box instead of a flat board that sits on top of the pull down stairs?
I showed why and the clearance needed at 12:30 mark on the video. The stair framing, rail, springs, and treads themselves aren't flat and protrude up into your attic when folded up, and the door is closed, so you have to account for that.
Great and simple video. Thanks!
No prob!
Cool!
Did you put 2 top coats or 1.
I just did the 1 top coat per the instructions.
What's a quality hole saw to purchase?
I have good success with the diablo brand for my DIY stuff. I have used spider Milwaukee and diablo and some no name stuff. Diablo stood out the most to me for price quality and features.
My mother called a local plumber and they quoted her $3,500 to fix exactly this. She also needed a new flapper valve and they said they only sell the whole kits and that would be another $400.00. They tried taking from a woman that is on a fixed income and have no conscience. She also had to pay a $85.00 fee for even coming out here and they didn't even take the toilet off. Talk about me being super mad. Such shady people in this evil world we live in. Thanks for the advice!
That's wild. No prob DIY it!
Great video. We've had ours for about 2 plus years. Do you have any suggestions on how to fix the LED lights. When they are turned on only half of the lights initially turn on then it takes about 1/2 hour before the rest turn on. At this point the light color/warmth can be changed and it works normally until the lights are turned off again.
Sounds like an issue with the led driver. Maybe needs replaced?
Exactly what I’m trying to do today. Thanks for the guidance
No prob, glad it helped!
I own an autobody shop and have been using body fillers for years. Any body filler like Bondo will dry according to how much hardener you add to it and the TEMPERATURE (outside or inside) where you're using it....especially in the direct sunlight. So be mindful that the more hardener you use with each batch you make the more quickly it will harden.....and sometimes (if not careful) it will harden too fast. Take it easy and only use a little bit of hardener (like the size of a pencil eraser) on small batches of putty. Use the hardener in accordance to the amount of putty you're mixing up. You want it to harden slower than too fast, so you won't be wasting it and it's not cheap.
Thanks Def use this tip in the future!
Where did the black box get installed at?
The box is the wireless receiver for the remote they install inside the mounting bracket up top by the ceiling.
i got some super cheap carpet that i ABSOLUTELY HATE!!!.... i just lay the vinyl over it??... nothing under it??... i've seen people use this wood, construction paper ( not sure why) and other stuff... what did u lay it on??... i can't find your install video 🤔
I used rigid core lvp that has the underlayment already bonded to the bottom. Removed the nail strips and foam from under the carpet and put the lvp directly on top the carpet. I linked the original videos.

Thank you!
Welcome!
Thank you so much! Im going to do my room as well
No problem, good luck on your project!
Do you have to change any light bulbs with this fan
No bubls, it's an integrated led board.
Great job. How do you change the light bulb
The leds on the board have a very long life but if you did have to service you can remove the screws to drop the entire crystal shroud to access them.
Nice work. Wow those are ancient ballasts. You actually got it backwards, the one with the all yellow sticker is the original and it’s good that the newer one was the one leaking because the older one has dangerous PCB tar in it.
Yeah they were old for sure, thanks for the info!
Does it have an odor or require a lot of ventilation?
No and no. From what I understand it's mineral oil based. So no crazy odor and no must use outside guidelines. An open window or fan is plenty if using extensively. It takes very little product as well, a little goes a long way.
I eat eggs
Neat.
Looks good man! Nice job. About how long did it take you to do all of this?
Thank you, the family is definitely enjoying being able to use the bathroom now! So I normally just work at my own pace nights and weekends type stuff. I think overall was probably about 20-25 hours of work spread over 2 weeks. A small half bath can be done in a weekend if you have all the stuff ready to go. For me we had no clue what we were going to do so like some days would be a couple hours of wall patching then while the joint compound was drying, the wife and I would take a trip to the store to pick out new stuff and any supplies etc. A lot less stressful doing it that way, few hours here and there. Then for like big parts 4-6 hours of work on a weekend day etc plus this way it doesn't completely interupt your normal day to day home life. If you want to get a better idea of the details and timeline I linked the playlist in the description, was a 10 part series and I try to keep my videos in the 5-10 min range.
Great tips
Thanks! Glad it was helpful.
At 3:58 i wish you would have demonstrated how you wire it up because i bought a similar Fandelier over a year ago and been running it for almost 6 months without the remote being able to control fan speeds but after hearing you talk about wiring setup at 4:06, i decided to unhook the wiring and wah laa.. Its now working 100% with remote. I am now a subscriber. Thanks.
Awesome, yeah, I think I will do a more detailed video on just how to wire in a fan remote and wireless receiver in the future! Thanks for the feedback!
When we moved into our current home I hired someone to install ceiling fans in all the rooms. He installed the cheap blue boxes. Well, here in Texas we run all the ceiling fans 24/7 during the summer. So a couple of the boxes came out from the ceiling and the fans are just dangling. I pulled up this video so my husband can watch it (even though I think, but not sure, he has done this before). I tinker with more simple repairs but am terrified of electrical currents. So hubby said he would replace the boxes this weekend. I’m sure he knows the answer to my question, but don’t want to offend his intelligence: do you turn off power to the room from main breaker? BTW. Great video! Greetings from Texas! 😻
That's unfortunate. Yeah, they need to be fan rated boxes for this reason. I always like the metal boxes as well for fans. Just inspire more confidence, lol. The main breaker will remove all power to the house. You typically don't want to do that. The smaller individual breakers can be used to remove power to rooms or branches one at a time as you work. And then some kinda of verification that the voltage is gone before you touch the wiring. I use a Klein non-contact voltage tester. www.amazon.com/Non-Contact-Detector-Klein-Tools-NCVT1P/dp/B099SJ6469 I'm from the mideast, and we like to run our fans year round, lol.
Highly recommend ordering Westinghouse Safe-T line. I use safe t pans for my entire house: they’re all metal with 70 lb fan rated and 150lb light rated! Even at the highest speed setting my fan doesn’t move at all. If you don’t need a pancake box, you could look at safe t box or safe t brace if you’re in between joists. I only install Westinghouse now. They’re a little more pricy but they’re the best and easiest to work with.
Regarding your ground wire... you connected to the pan box than will you connect it also to the ceiling fan light's ground? Thanks.
Correct metal boxes must be bonded to ground then you ground your device as well.
Vinyl siding is junk.
Not my favorite thing for sure.
Talk your shit big dawg! They really were hating bad on the first video. 😂
🤣
Cool before then after video, definitely didn't come here for the how to part. 😅
Haha. Yeah, early on, I didn't realize I should make a full how to install guide for this one. I approached it as what I would want to see as I've installed dozens of fans and lights over the years, but the fandelier was new to me, so I approached it that way. Lesson learned!
Thanks for sharing
No prob
Thanks
No problem
Hello thanks for the video! I am considering it. You mentioned you used smoke gray but it looks white. Can you please confirm the color you used.
Correct the color is called smoke and it's a very light gray/off white.
@@HowellHomeDIY543 awesome thank you!
No problem.
Can I be shocked cutting old phone landline wires? I’m chicken!
All the current stuff is too low voltage. Old analog lines could though especially when ringing. If you don't feel safe working on it then don't would be my recommendation.
12V DC. You can feel it, but it's safe.
Thank you!
Welcome!
I would like to know what size box i need for a 70 pound ceiling fan
It will be a 4" circle or octagon box. But that's not the more important factor. What your looking for is that it is listed as a fan rated box, lists the weight it supports and uses the larger #10 screws.
What is the color of the paint you are using?
It's just some off white sprat paint I found in the garage that's a close match to my siding. If you don't have the paint I would get some color matched. Online apps can match colors off a picture now. I would have went that route if I didn't have the stuff on hand.
Question - when you screwed the flange spacer down, did you screw it to the original flange or directly to the subfloor (or through the original flange to the subfloor)?
A mix of what your asking but screws were long enough for all to hit the subfloor. IIRC 2 holes lined up with original flange screw holes, if they didn't, I sent the screw through the original flange into the subfloor. I accounted for the thickness of both flanges and my subfloor thickness when I picked up new screws. Also recommended Stainless or galvanized screws.
How do I keep the fan running but turn the light totally off. I can dim 😂 it but I need total darkness to sleep
On mine I can turn the light off with the remote.
I can dim it but it won't totally go off. Is it more than one button you push
Mine doesn't dim just has on/off and 3 colors you can switch through. Seems you have a different led controller setup than me. That's a common problem with some led dimmers is not going off all the way. There can be a slight current flow still which allows the leds to glow still when they are supposed to be off. Maybe reach out to the seller see what they say.
Thx for answering
@@DianeAllen-q3r no prob
Very very beautiful 😍 I’m doing this in my living room bedroom and kids room 😊 can’t wait 😊
Thank you, awesome good luck on your projects!
❤❤❤
Looks great!!
Thanks!
Great job looks fantastic. Be interested in a follow up to see how it stood up after two years?
Here is the my thoughts at 1 year. ua-cam.com/video/vOSCz3nEkSs/v-deo.htmlsi=35hwWLAr9AOTWAs2
Will shoot a 2 year update here in a few minutes and upload it. Will inspect it real good and see what I think still.

Fantastic makeover! Is that a cordless nail gun for the trim? Loved the leaning over to paint the wall by the stairs! :-)
Thanks, yeah it's a Ryobi 18 gauge brad nailer. It shares batteries with a bunch of my other cordless ryobi tools. It's great for base boards and trim.
Looking great!
Thanks Alan!
Too fast putting the cover on
My bad, the holes in the cover just click into the barbs on the base. You do need the cover oriented 90 degrees open or less.
Is there way to attach it to a leaky hose?
They work with any standard water hose. If your hose ends are damaged currently, causing a leak, just using these connectors likely wouldn't fix the leak.
Excellent and thank you. I just installed the round mini box, but used blue plastic - DON'T RECCOMEND THESE because 1. the romex/elect line hole extends like 1/2 inch upward causing an issue around the joist (dumb manufacturer and nearly blows the point of having a shallow box-Duh!) 2. they also put micro joist lines of plastic so you can 'line up the joist' dumb again, I had to pull/slice them off to get flush to the joist AGAIN since it is a shall space. I will not choose blue plastic on these in the future - I will use metal. But my question if you have time since we did not see the light/fan install - shouldn't the wire connections fit as much as possible into the box? vs hanging below the elec. box on top of the light/fan section?
No problem. As far as I know the blue plastic "pancake" boxes are new work boxes, intended for new construction. Where as this metal version I used is labeled as old/new work so can be used in new construction or retrofit/remodel. I always look for the term "old work" when needing electrical stuff for remodeling existing stuff. I usually leave as much romex wire and the wire nuts in the box as I can as it's solid core wire and less flexible. But yes most fixtures include a cavity or mount with cover that offers plenty of room to house the wiring as well. In my case the fan/chandelier I installed also includes a remote controller housed in the fixture upper with plenty of room for the wiring. Even the flush mount led light I installed in my bathroom the other day had a cavity to house the wires and wire nut connections, vice having to shove them up in the box so you have options.
Look good man, 'preciate the update. Anyone who knocks these kind of quick fixes doesn't understand the value in restoring that water protection ASAP. It's not really about making it 100% again, just 100% functional.
Thanks! Gota keep that water out.
How did you take out the disc from the ceiling fan box? One of the three holes from where the white wire came out
It's called a knockout. You can use a screwdriver or punch and tap it out by hand or with a hammer etc.
My fan stop working ..😢 any suggestions
That sucks, no issues with mine. I would start by checking the wiring and make sure everything is connected good and getting power.
That flooring with carpet underneath is gonna move and flex and start coming apart at the seems.
Nah it's been great, 2 years later now. Here was the 1 year update. ua-cam.com/video/L2-NghYi6og/v-deo.htmlsi=FYG5DekHjiRifwxS
