Energy Effi cient Use of Ceiling Fans
Ceiling fan performance and energy savings rely
heavily on the proper installation and use of the ceiling
fan. Here are a few tips to ensure efficient product
performance.
Choosing the Appropriate Mounting Location
Ceiling fans should be installed, or mounted, in the middle
of the room and at least 7 feet above the floor and 18
inches from the walls. If ceiling height allows, install the fan
8 - 9 feet above the floor for optimal airflow. Consult your
Fanimation Retailer for optional mounting accessories.
Turn Off When Not in the Room
Ceiling fans cool people, not rooms. If the room is
unoccupied, turn off the ceiling fan to save energy.
Electrical and Structural Requirements
Your new ceiling fan will require a grounded electrical
supply line of 120 volts AC, 60 Hz, 15 amp circuit. The
outlet box must be securely anchored and capable of
withstanding a load of at least 50 lbs. Figure 1 depicts
different structural configurations that may be used for
mounting the outlet box.
Using the Ceiling Fan Year Round
Summer Season: Use the ceiling fan in the counter-
clockwise direction. The airflow produced by the ceiling
fan creates a wind-chill effect, making you “feel” cooler.
Select a fan speed that provides a comfortable breeze,
lower speeds consume less energy.
Winter Season: Reverse the motor and operate the ceiling
fan at low speed in the clockwise direction. This produces
a gentle updraft, which forces warm air near the ceiling
down into the occupied space.Remember to adjust your
thermostat when using your ceiling fan - additional energy
and dollar savings could be realized with this simple step!

WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or personal
injury, mount fan to outlet box marked acceptable
for fan support of 22.7 kg (50 lbs) or less. Use screws
supplied with outlet box. Most outlet boxes commonly
used for support of light fixtures are not acceptable for
fan support and may need to be replaced. Consult a
qualified electrician if in doubt.
If your fan is to replace an existing light fixture, turn
electricity off at the main fuse box at this time and remove
the existing light fixture.
▲
WARNING
Turning off wall switch is not sufficent. To avoid
possible electrical shock, be sure electricity is turned
off at the main fuse box before wiring. All wiring must
be in accordance with National and Local codes and the
ceiling fan must be properly grounded as a precaution
against possible electrical shock.

How to Assemble Your Ceiling Fan
1. Prior to assembly, set aside and save the hardware
bags packed in the packing. Remove the hanger ball
by loosening the setscrew in the hanger ball until the
ball falls freely down the downrod. Remove the pin
from the downrod, then remove the danger ball.
Retain the pin and hanger ball for reinstallation in
Step5. (Figure1)
2. The fan comes with blue, black, and white 80”
wires.
Separate and untwist the three wires. Route
the wires the wires through the downrod.
NOTE: You will be using either the 4½”
downrod supplied with your fan or an optional downrod
purchased separately.
Loosen the two setscrews in the downrod support.
Install downrod into coupler. Align the clevis pin
holes in the downrod with the holes in the downrod
support. (Figure 2)

WARNING
It is critical that the clevis screw in the downrod support is
properly installed and the setscrews and nuts are securely
tightened. Failure to verify that the clevis screw, nuts, hairpin
clip and setscrews are properly installed could result in the fan
falling.

5. Reinstall the hanger ball on the downrod as
follows. Route the three 80 in. Wire through the
hanger ball. Position the pin through the two holes
in the downrod and align the hanger ball so the
pin is captured in the groove in the top of the
hanger ball. Pull the hanger ball up tight against
the pin. Securely tighten the set screw in the
hanger ball. A loose set screw could create fan
wobble. (Figure 5)

NOTE: If you are not sure if the outlet box is grounded,
contact a licensed electrician for advise, as it must be
grounded for safe operation.
WARNING
The fan must be hung with at least 7’ of clearance
from floor to blades. (Figure 8)
1. Securely attach the hanger bracket to the outlet
box using the outlet box screws and washers supplied
withe the fan. (Figure 9)
WARNING
The outlet box must be securely anchored. Hanger
bracket must seat firmly against outlet box. If the outlet
box is recessed, remove wall board until bracket
contacts box. If bracket and /or outlet box are not
securely attached, the fan could wobble or fall.
2. Carefully lift the fan and seat the downrod/hanger
ball assembly on the hanger bracket that was just
attached to the outlet box. Be sure the groove in the
ball is lined up with tab on the hanger bracket.
