Fan Balancing

we cleaned our ceiling fan yesterday and now it seems that his excitement really bad and about to fall from ceiling.and last nite, I had to disable, not only because I was afraid he fall, but he was so strong I could not sleep! ideas?

My husband is an electrician and I have ceiling fans I care, no way he should never be necessary to glue anything to the magnet strip, neighborhood, etc. .. there is either a screw loose or Fastner on the base, or the blades relaxed while you were cleaning, shaking and vibrations are normally caused by a loose blade or two, check these things and one of them should solve the problem, Good Luck!

You can buy small magnets that add weight to one or more of the BLAC. Check with a ceiling fan store or hardware store.

Since it is sufficient to clean, I think you put it out of alignment. The tree should hang perfectly straight. Sure. It can easily be removed to match. Second check all the lights, perhaps a light blanket is Misset.

Did you remove the blades? Check their link.

If you really want to play with balance, you can try to stick small washers on the upper surface of a weathervane.

Hello, the correct way to run a ceiling fan to stop the oscillation is to have four blades work well.
It is a bit tricky, doing it this way and your fan is smooth.What seems to be out of equilibrium is caused by the blades twisted. retify that you loosen the bolts on a plate and put a small washer between the blade and fan body, tighten the blades of trying to run his own worst fan.If remove the washer and try uner next bolt. What to try the other 3 blades of the same method. This method is a little slow, but works.
Good luck Waltz.

All other answers were good, but you'd better buy a new one if you're old, could have bad bearings.

The metal brackets used to attach the blades to the prime mover can be easily folded. When it is folded one or more blades are more or less than the others. This affects the balance, which makes the oscillation of the fan slightly.

Turn off the fan. Make sure all blades are secured to the body of the fan and all screws are screwed tightly. If that does not swing, climb one to one laddar heighth so that your eyes are roughly at the height of the blades. With a pencil, mark the center of the outer edge of each blade. Using a ruler or yard stick, one end is placed on a specific point on the ceiling just above the edge of the outer blade, measure the distance between the ceiling of the mark on every blade. Chances are there will be differences, and one or two blades will be higher or lower than all others.

To align a blade that is superior or inferior to others, keep the fan body in one hand and gently press down or up (as appropriate) to demand an end to the blade. Measuring brand new. If making adjustments and soft measurement until all marks are the same distance from the exact point of the ceiling. This should solve the oscillation. Then erase the marks.

There are kits available balancing blade, but they should be used only for the balance after you have done as much support bending, as you can.
