You need a connector or bushing for that wire. You can't just pop the wire through the opening. It's against code. The vibration of the fan will cause the wire to rub against the box and cause issues eventually.

Forgot a Romeo connector & a ground screw but good job, also for those who want a ceiling fan but a joist is in the middle of your room, you do not need a bar, you can screw the fan box directly to the joist with Sheetrock screws

I just had to deal with removing the old bar on my 15' ceiling with no access from above. Talk about a pain in the ass, but well worth it. I personally just cut it in half, bent it side to side until it was loose, pried the nail out slightly with a screw driver then gave some good pulls until the nail came out. getting the brace out was probably the hardest part of everything done.

great video, only thing i'd say is that you should have used a plastic grommet where the wire goes into the box, this helps protect against the sharp metal box cutting into the wire sheathing and causing a arch. not likely to happen but the grommets are cheap insurance

There’s only one stud? Typically if the old box is attached directly to one ceiling joist you will find one 16 inches away by getting access. Are you removing the old box? Can you gain access to the patio ceiling through the hole? Can you look up inside the hole?

Ask The Maintenance Man no access for me to get there I did look through the hole with a flash light and nothings there. I can’t put the box that’s built for fans because there’s no way to mount it. Only a regular electric box that was mounted to that single stud for the light fixture.

Can you get a wire or something in the hole to find out how far away the next joist is? I have used my cellphone in the past. If you put the camera end in the hole from the old box and take a picture with a flash you might be surprised at what you see. Feel free to email me if you need more detailed help.

It took about 3 seconds of sawzalling and that small "truss" piece (I still *think* I'm using that word correctly... ) just split in two and pretty much fell off of both joists it was between. A quick reach into the hole with my hands to grab them and take them out was all it needed then, and then there was plenty of space for the braces to expand firmly into each of the joists. Hope your project works out!

I found out the fan the wife bought weight less than 18lbs. Was wondering because the weight of the fan is so light and the standard junction box holds 50lbs fixture weight, can I just attach the light ceiling fan to the existing junction box and call it a day?
@TheMaintenanceMan
@TheMaintenanceMan 4 жыл бұрын
I’ve done it before but It’s all about sag. Screw the fan bracket to the box and pull down a bit. It’s hard to pull at exactly 18lbs but give it a good pull. If it seems robust and doesn’t move much go for it. If you hear drywall crackling stop and change it out. If it sags beyond the face of the drywall you will have problems getting the fan flush with the ceiling and you should change it out. Check the sag. It’s worth the ol’ college try. Just be smart and safe about it.

Nice video, I had my electrician remove my 6 inch recessed light to install a ceiling fan and he's telling me that even with this brace, the 6 inch hole is too big for the junction box so he'd have to make the hole smaller so there's not a big gap around the junction box. It didn't make sense to me and the canopy for the ceiling fan is about 8 inches. What do you think about that?
@TheMaintenanceMan
@TheMaintenanceMan 5 жыл бұрын
If the box is secure enough to hold the ceiling fan and the canopy of the fan is large enough to cover the gap... Go for it. That’s not a structural issue. That shroud doesn’t “support” the fan. It’s aesthetic and your gap would be underneath that upper shroud you’d never see it. Hope that helps. Have a great weekend.

It's a standard size fan box. If you have smaller studs in your mobile home you might be able to get a short box from a local home improvement store and use it instead of the one that comes wit the kit. You will most likely have to drill holes in the new short box for the mounting screws. Hope that helps.

A little bit of movement in the box is normal, but other way, it is secure really good to the joists so there is no way it could fail and then the whole fan falls on him or anyone

No electrical connector on the cable to the box? If he's the "maintenance man", what does he do with HVAC or plumbing? Make sure your home insurance is current before you hire this guy!

Didn’t explain how to center the bracket so the box lines up with the hole.
