You don't have to shut down the town electric power to install a fan. Lol
lol. Yea. Fuck safety. Right....
just installed mine on my back porch. would've thought the speed would have been faster on VI. I was expecting to be blown away.
Someone needs to do a video on how to use the remote
It's trash.
@rsiller you got switches in the remote by the batteries and in the lamp.
Such a good job with your video clear instructions simple explanations to the point. Thank you
Got this fan to replace the one in the garage which was a 52. It’s a 9ft ceiling so I kept the 6in down rod, I was expecting some extreme air blast on hi or on speed 6 and it wasn’t at all what I expected. Looks great but thought air movement would’ve been more compared to the cheap little hunter that was in there previously. Anyone else experience this?
Yes very disappointed
Extremely disappointed with the speed. We hardly feel anything.
Thanks for doing this video. Am going to install this fan on a patio this weekend, but without the light kit (patio already has recessed lighting). This tips are sure to save time.
Thank you for the video. Made it so easy for me. I couldn't tell by their directions what to do but your video saved the day!
Just put up 2 of these....easier to assemble all but one blade on the ground then lift into place...i also did the first two parts of the lamp as well leaving the bulb, wiring and one blade to do on the ladder...less up n down. Also this fan comes w a tooon of plastic. Remember this can and should be recycled with your grocery bags at the local grocery store!!!
FYI...grocery bags should be recycled at designated plastic bag collection points....they should NOT be thrown in with regular single stream recycling
Really? Shut the power off to the entire house? You obviously don't know what you're doing.
Yes one room should suffice....i like to turn on lights on the same circut and that way when the lights are out you know the power is out. A good safety check is to have a voltage detector...just hold it close to the wires before you start messing about. Still agree the whole house does not need to be off.
Exactly!
Mine ran for two days. Now it changes directions by it self runs slow for a moment then quits.
Mines comes with a yellow sheet that says "Do not use fan with Dimmer switch or variable speed wall controll.using a dimmer switch or variable speed wall control will damage the fan."
Did you have to set the dip switches on the fan to match the remote?
Just installed this fan. Was very painful. Could not get the "Canopy Cap" flush with the ceiling. Any ideas of any "collar" that can be added on the top? thanks
It is tricky, but I finally got mine to go flush.
Installed good video, but my fan for some reason does not throw any air no matter in what direction I put. My ceilings are about 9 ft. Don’t know what went wrong.
So how’s the fan holding up 5 years later I’m looking to buy one
I like the neodymium magnet on the socket
We had an electrician install our fan during the build of our home. By the time we moved in 10 months later, the electrician had thrown away all paperwork to this fan not knowing we purchased it. Fan is for outside, if that matters. Long story short...how do we reverse the directional fan blade's? Your expertise is most welcome in advance.
Same question
The reverse button is on the remote. Took some messing with to get it to work.
@@ericdunn6967 Thank you Eric. I also found another site that said we must turn the fan off and leave it off for about 5 minutes and then turn it back on and depress the reverse button. This finally worked for us. seems this fan had to be off for a lengthy time to reset, before the reverse button would work.
Also, you either have a twin or a second channel that deals with cars lol
Can’t you adjust the color temp on this fan like other fanimation fans?
I wasn't able to get mines to work. Everything wired properly. Had a red wire that wasn't attached. Guess I need to go back to a traditional fan
You have a 3 way switch, that’s why you have a black, red, white, and hopefully a ground.
Everytime I turn the light switch off I have to reprogram the remote. Anyone else experiencing this?
@@randyearley746 yes! I have to hit our breaker to get ours to respond to the remote. Did you ever get yours fixed?
i just installed this fan and it does not rock at all, not working. so you just turn one the power and it work and no pairing?
Thanks for the video. What's the height on your ceiling 8ft 9ft 10ft?
Until you get to a 10 ft ceiling keep the 6 in down rod...still gets plenty of air...above 10 go w 12 in rod
QUESTION , THE LED LIGHT COME ONLY WITH WARM LIGHT OR I CAN SET THE SAME LED LIGHT TO DAY LIGHT ON FANIMATION V2 72"?
Just installed mine👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
My fan won't spin but the light will turn on and off with remote. I restarted the power and held down the set button and it blinked 2 but it won't spin
probably need to pair the remote...cut power then turn back on and hold set button behind battery door of remote within 60 seconds of adding power back...it will move slightly and turn on light to indicate pairing. Then good to go. Ifyou have more than one fan in the house set the dip switches to a different pattern...unless you want them controlled from one controller.
Hello, simple and easy instruction video. I like it. I just got this fan the other day. Everything seems to be connected wire wise. I'm getting no power/remote not syncing up with fan. I've been testing without attaching the blades though, would that matter?
If you know.
I have the same problem. Were you able to find a resolution?
Thanks
I attached the blades, I was still getting no power/remote syncing. I switched the cables in the power switch. Still no power. Eventually after leaving it alone for awhile, I tried the remote again and it synced. So I have no real advice on how I got it working.
Punkz0rz We will give it a rest and see what happens later. Thanks for replying.
I know since this is a DC powered fan there are certain instructions you have to follow in order to make it all work correctly. What I noticed is you MUST, after switching the power on, press the button on the back of the remote by the battery within 5 seconds. This will sync the remote with the fan. Now, I'm not exactly sure but I think if the power gets switched off again, like if you've wired the fan to a light switch, you must repeat the process stated above. Hope that helps some.
It was a power issue. The wall switch connecting the fan was faulty. It wasn't allowing enough power to flow thorough. This was never an issue considering it only controlled lights before. So yeah, make sure you are meeting the power requirements. Thanks for the input everyone.
How do i get a replacement led light?
Looks nice.
My friend helped me install this, and come to find out that the reomote control is not user friendly. The fan is stable and seems to work good once you make it to work, maybe after 30 minutes to an hour of tinkering with the remote. They need to fix the problem with the remote or else we won't stop hearing all sorts of things from the wife like, "Remove that thing and put the old fan back!" Ha!
What was your solution IRT remote/fan synch? We can't seem to make it work. Are you cutting the power off/on, then SET from the circuit box? Or just off/on from wall switch? We left the dip switches as they came, didn't adjust. We did not see a code to use. Not sure why that step is even included if you are not adjusting it. Any synch advice is much appreciated, thanks.
Yep, you have the same headache as I do with the remote. The trick that I learned to do is to turn the wall switch OFF, wait 2 seconds then turn ON again , and wait 2-5 seconds before you can reprogram your remote to play with the light and the fan speed. The fan directional change is really tricky and just requires more patience. I also did not change the dip switches. Moving your remote closer to the fan works better sometimes. Hope this helps. God bless.
@@dt1mdlara I know this is old but do you remember what the dip switches were set to factory? All up, all down?
Why is there no discussion/video about the receiver unit that gets installed with the hanger bracket that allows use of the remote? Do I have a later version of the fan? I just bought it yesterday at Lowe's.
I just installed the one with the stupid receiver you have to cram up into the hanger, along with the 12 wires you have to hook up (slight exaggeration). My fan does not work at all. I have a red supply (switched) and black supply (switched). I want to control the light from the switch, and the fan from the other switch. I couldn't care less about the remote. Am I stuck getting a contractor grade ceiling fan with pull chain controls or what? I'm getting really frustrated here. I was up on the ladder for 2 hours trying to get all the wires hooked up, and it's a ton of them.
great video
I had these (2) fans installed on my lanai by an electrician less than a week ago and they have been working fine until this morning. One fan is running fine/light works, the other was running and just quit, but the light works. I tried to manually get it spinning then press the lowest speed hoping to jump start it to no avail, any suggestions?
Mine just crapped out and doesn’t work at all, any suggestions?
I think like alot fans these have a starter module that can go out. I have had a fan do that before. I just bought 3 of these fans but have not installed them yet.
@@fredwhisnant2779 could be a starter module.
awesome fan
Electrician installed mine a couple of weeks ago. Fan now beeps periodically. Anyone know why this is happening?
Im confused the one i have had a remote with it and has 15 speeds
Do you know how to change direction of the fan?
I am trying to figure this out too!!
To change counter clockwise for summer push sun button on bottom of remote.Clockwise is the snow flake for winter
What do you do with the red wire? I have a red hot wire but my fan does not require it because it’s remote control. Thanks
Just put a wire nut.
Excuse me, how do I install it, could you tell me how I connect it, it has blue, brown, gray, red and yellow cable ... they do not occupy the control, the box has black, white, red and earth ground
ua-cam.com/video/RoHw6-WXDzc/v-deo.html
Heres a video that includes those wires
I want to add the light kit and mine has a silver bottom where the light goes. Does it just pop out using a Flathead screwdriver?
Terry you should be able to twist it. the light covers goes into some grooves and then you twist the dome on.
Install was pretty straightforward, but we can't get the remote & fan to synch. Have tried a few different changes to dip switches, no luck. Any advice is greatly appreciated, thanks.
Figured it out, crazy. We had to remove the CFL bulbs from a lamp in the room, and two others nearby. Something about the CFLs interferes with the signals. LED bulbs work fine. Fan is now fully operational.
@@wayneherbert4462 ps if you have CFLs in your garage door they typically cause interference and intermittent operation there as well!
@@wayneherbert4462 I am having same issue, remote will not sync with fan, what is a CFL? what could be causing interference?
@@marshapatkapinus7229 Usually they are those spiral variants of Compact Fluorescent Light bulbs. Last forever, but put off some type of interference, even when they are not on. Just passing along what I have learned.
I have a red wire on mine main power, where does the red go???
Alex The Great. It goes with black.
If you have a red and a black, (along with white and bare copper), you likely have 2 switches, one for fan, one for light. If you have both red and black, cap and tape the red wire and hook up the black. If you have only a red (and no black), substitute the red for the black
My home is wired with two options as well....red is typically a switch on the wall (for older fans this allowed control of the lamp independently) the other black is an always hot option that gets turned off only at the breaker. In short of you want to turn off w the switch wire up to the red...if you want always powered wire to the black. WHITE SHOULD ALWAYS GO TO WHITE. and if your not 100% certian it pays to take a few min with a voltage detector and play with the switches. Never leave an open wire exposed...always cover with a wire nut even if its just for testing.
I am having problems with the light I have power going to the light replace the LED thinking that it might be bad but it still doesn’t work any suggestions would be appreciated
Mine stopped working also! I’m calling the company tomorrow
how about showing all speeds
In my living room I have a switch for the fan and a switch for my light, do these work independently or do you have to use a remote control to turn on and off? I know I would have to use the remote to control the fan speed.
My question as well. I wish these didn't come with the stupid remote crap.
@@chrishoesel I just hooked it all up to one light switch and leave it be
Safe
Mine is making a high pitched noise
Dude you need a drill lol. Itll take way less time
You're a genius!
Lol GUY DO NOT BUY FANIMATION FANS. WHEN THE LIGHT GO BAD YOU HAVE TO UNINSTALL AND SEND BACK TO MANUFACTURE FOR REPAIR.
The gloves 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
