Its nice you take the time to show people who may not have any experience with changing light fixtures. Love the old light- something my wife would pick out.

[@loucee222]

That older fixture is beautiful!

[@loucee222]

I no longer have ceiling fans. The draft aggravates my arthritis. Hope you never have this problem.

[@cllnplmr]

I always learn from you! Can't wait to show my Hubs! We need folks like you to pass on info like this for those that missed out on practical 'How-to' wisdoms because they didn't have a handyman mentor in their lives. May the cool breezes be the fruit of your labors!!

[@albanymountainhomestead]

ceiling fans are a huge help in a hot kitchen...the light fixture has a nice vintage feel to it, I'm sure you'll sell it quickly. Thanks for sharing your safelty tips...

[@MTLTV-eu4nv]

Albany Mountain life The one thing he did not point out is that some junction boxes are not suited for use with ceiling fans. If you are putting a ceiling fan in, you should always ensure the junction box is suited for use with ceiling fans, and replace it if it isn’t. Otherwise, the fan could potentially fall down while it is in use.

[@whelenWPS]

Another ceiling fan video YAAS!!!!

[@piahess9738]

First time I have seen a ceiling fan installed.You explained it soo nicely step by step.I think I would be able to do it by myself now.Thanks.Getting hot here this week and for the weekend in the Bay Area.Take care you two.♡

[@ginaladner1]

How much do you want for the light fixture? I have one I need to replace!

[@maryreed2619]

This was fun to watch you do this! The light you took down is beautiful. The fan will be so much cooler for you guys when your working in the kitchen! I love fans!!! TFS...🤗👍

[@rachelgriffore24]

I watched a couple videos before stumbling on yours..and yours is the one that actually showed me what i needed to know. I am so happy i now have a working ceiling fan .thankyou so much for the help!

[@robinday1620]

Excellent instructions! Thank you 🤗

[@things4yougaming723]

This will be my first time installing a ceiling fan tomorrow. So wish me luck I’m going to be coming back to this video a whole bunch lol

[@riverrat1747]

Thank you Danny your good teacher.

[@Freedom83162]

I wish you had this video out for my husband to watch last year when we had to change our cecil fan out.

[@--AllGoNoQuit--]

Gosh Danny.. it's a shame they don't have you teaching shop class in town there, you are an awesome instructor! In fact, I don't know that they still offer shop classes anywhere anymore? I took it as well as Home Economics back in the day (one of very few girls in shop class, but I loved woodworking). This was a great instructional video! I often go to KZbin for help with projects around the house since my husband passed away (he was a remodeler by profession) and this is the type of how to video or series I often seek! You are very conscientious and thorough! 😊 Thanks for sharing!

[@christasmicroflowerfarm2695]

Nice job Danny and it will make all the difference. My hubby's a sparkie too as we say here and has installed fans into every room of the house and I love having them.

[@montanadurbin8899]

Youre why i love youtube. Thank you for your amazing tutorial. much love!

[@danshaw9479]

Thanks for these excellent tips!

[@dan.SoCali]

about two install two of these Hugger Ceiling Fans at home. Thank you very very much for this video, otherwise I would've had no clue on how to go about doing this.

[@julieschossow9315]

How Funny! Not only are our homes very similar, I have the same light over our dining table!

[@travis2511]

For anyone not very comfortable with fans the hunter five minute fans are real simple. They come pretty much 90% assembled just install blades and wire it up.

[@mountainboy2346]

although it doesn't take five minutes. still, it is a very cool featured fan

[@jael6048]

Thank you SO much!! This was the instruction I was looking for!! Simple yet detailed enough grasp quickly❤

[@lochness3224]

Nice job Danny.... from the temps you tell us you have at DS, looks like you are gonna need that...

[@tonylopez4757]

Awesome tutorial Sir. I was able to install my ceiling fan in no time following the instructions and tips you gave. Thanks and greetings from Mexico.

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

Glad the instructions were clear so you could follow them and do the project yourself.

[@cottagetwo2810]

Looks good..I know Wanda will enjoy that while canning..

[@MattG-dk6sx]

Going to go throw my liberty overalls on in a min and tackle the same fan. Thanks for the clear constructions

[@gregorythomas333]

Excellent tutorial!

[@nol1379]

Well done Danny hanging the fan. Make sure fan blows air upward to keep hot air up near ceiling so as to draw cool air upward from floor. If air moves right you should be about ten degrees cooler in the kitchen unless Wanda isn't working to hard.

[@msmeganmole]

Nice job. U explained everything I needed to know. U make it look simple. Thank you.

[@cherylmiller2272]

Good job, Danny! you're the man!!!!

[@moblackbird]

This was very helpful. Thank you!

[@06_chris411]

Thank you my fan wouldnt turn on turns out the black wire connects with the blue wire it works thank you so much!

[@Lic.en.derecho]

You are an angel....very useful video and well explained.....thank you!

[@jeremiahlackey1582]

Thanks for this video. We have some ceiling fans we need to install.

[@hueycarter5306]

Nice video, very concise and like the commentary, Much appreciated. I'm going to use separate switches for lights and fan but this should get the mechanical part accomplished. Thank you

[@debbievanfossen7762]

Nice light....have one just like this...

[@Tracks777]

Awesome video,Keep it up!

[@frozenbites-meals1652]

Easy to follow, thanks for uploading

[@pamjones6465]

Nice job Danny. That will definitely be a asset in keeping the kitchen cooler. Thank you for the clear concised instructions. Thank you for sharing such awesome information. God bless you and Wanda.

[@boydalexander4652]

That fan is perfect for that room because the ceiling is pretty low.

[@gerrymarmee3054]

In Arizona we have a ceiling fan in every room.

[@tony27ortiz]

Thank you for your video....It was very helpful..

[@tommyjones751]

looks good I'm sure ur head will appreciate it!

[@mad_ead_getto9006]

Thanks bro....vid was very helpful 🖒🖒

[@txchivo8631]

Very helpfull thank you.

[@williamholsey]

Taping the wire nut is not code. You're supposed to use a linesman to twist bonds the wires. Tape isn't needed.

[@PlumcrazyCharger909]

How should I wire the fan if I have an additional hot wire (red and black) ? Also I don’t have an additional switch on the wall to control the fan independently of the light. Thanks in advance and Nice video btw!

[@BrockNessMonster1991]

Very helpful, thank you. My only confusion is in my light fixture box in the ceiling I have a black wire, a tan wire, a red wire, and a copper ground wire going to a screw. My current 2 bulb light fixture has black going to red, white going to tan (which I guess is white), the black wire in the ceiling is just capped off and the ground goes to a screw. I don’t understand 😞

[@BrockNessMonster1991]

- I got it, my black wire in the ceiling did nothing. I had to connect the black and blue from the fan to the Red in the ceiling, white from fan to light brown (supposed to be white), and disconnect the copper ground from the screw and connect it to green ground from fan. All working now, thanks for your tutorial video 👍🏻

[@RonGoote]

I would run LED's they have cut my power bill way down

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

Michiana Prepper WE have mostly leds everywhere there just so expensive for the good ones it takes a while to get all the bulbs replaced.THanks

[@lynntucker4196]

not sure if u can help but sure would love it if you could.. i have THREE SETS of wires coming out my ceiling.. each set has a white, black,and copper. How do I know which one to hook my fan to?

[@corbinmckay1487]

Did You Buy The New Fan From Walmart

[@lonelyprepperhomestead911]

You emphasized that you always take the ground wire loose first. Could you explain 'why' you feel that is necessary?

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

Lonely Prepper Homestead Well its impossible to be shocked if your not grounded.So to be safe i unhook the ground in case my hand happens to touch the fixture while undoing the hot wire.I know the power is off but ive gotten into boxes before that had 2 hot wires running into the box and got shocked before thinking that by throwing the breaker and killing the power to that box that i was ok not knowing someone ran a second hot wire into the box taking a shortcut with wire and got me shocked.Just safety first.THanks

[@diablo-km2ot]

what did you do with your old lamp?

[@tamig.7969]

Hey, there are two green wires coming from the fan portion one on the backet attached to the ceiling, one coming out of the top of the fan and then the copper one coming out of the ceiling. The one that cofuses me is the one on the bracket that the fan hangs on ? where does that attach...you skipped alot of your wiring in the video.

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

All the green wires twist together and then twist to the copper wire and put a wire nut on it and tape it.

[@jasoncomeaux4512]

Definitely would have put a 52 inch there instead of a 42 inch move a little more air

[@SoundEmperor1]

This guy obviously isn't an electrician! Always disconnect the hot wire first!

[@charlesmckay5110]

do you have any more ceiling fans in your house

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

Yes in every room

[@Grizz270]

120 is just a little tickle lol

[@balvirsingh4789]

I am an aviation enthusiast

[@KCCeilingFans]

Is this fan good quality?

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

Still working after a couple of years. We use it almost every day

[@charlesmckay5110]

is the fan still there today

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

Yes, and used everyday that it is hot to move air in the kitchen.

[@barbarahogan4796]

👍

[@albanymountainhomestead]

ok I watched this video 30 mins ago and hit the thumbs up and I came back to find that my thumbs up isn't there...I liked again but this is happening a lot and not sure why?
