Ceiling Fans in my new house

[pocketdrummer84]

Nice fans! Love them all. As i can see,the previous owner did some changing on the first one.I see the four light missing and that fan is on a dimmer and the second one is kinda high. My recommendation,the first fan,remove that dimmer off the wall and pit a regular wall switch. If you still want the dimmer for lights,get a remote control kit and add on the fan.I installed the Walmart version of this fan at my aunt and added the remote.The second fan,you can do the same for it too,the remote.

@pocketdrummer84 dimmer was already replaced with flip switch. That other one, it has a dual switch wiring electrical box since light has its own switch, so we might one day put in a 3speed wall control for fan

Sahara hugger is probably made by Litex and so is Harbor Breeze Moonglow. I hate when I see some ceiling fans installed on the dimmer switch. Emerson Buckington is 1 of few fans made today that uses stack motor.

[carexpertandy]

@CeilingFanVideosOnYT Possibly, and I think it was sold at HQ back in the day, because i found out about a brand called Sahara Fan Company that was owned by HQ. And the Buckingham is actually discontinued

[CeilingFanVideosOnYT]

@carexpertandy And have you checked out my channel yet? I have a video of 2 good Hunter Original, and I will make more videos.

[jonahmusto]

Is the string tied on Emerson yet?

[carexpertandy]

@jonahmusto Nope, and we probably wont. Nobody really minds standing on that chair

[ilovemiele1]

i also love the third fan!!!! and your house looks well nice! good video!

[ilovemiele1]

omg the first fan is amazing! i want one!

[carexpertandy]

@ilovemiele1 you can still find one just like this at Lowes

[ilovemiele1]

@carexpertandy i live in the UK not the USA so im not too sure what that is. you probably cant get them over here! still a nice fan.

minka air shringlia unkown hugger and a ge vent and emerson crown also aloha fan and two hamton bay landmark plus but also has a craftmade porch fan and my dog named lola have a hunter augsta ceiling fan and harbor breeze oleans fan my ceiling fans in my house join the VIDEO !!!!!!!!!!!

[MrFandude123]

why does the harbor breeze moonglow hum so much?

[carexpertandy]

@MrFandude123 Its actually a copy of the Moonglow i think. The brand is Sahara according to a sticker on the switch housing. It was humming because it was on a light dimmer switch, which ceiling fans should NEVER be on. That can cause the fan motor to break or maybe even a fire. I replaced the dimmer with a flip switch, no more hum

[jonahmusto]

Previous owner should have known that dimmer + ceiling fan = FIRE HAZARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[carexpertandy]

@jonahmusto Well idk if it was previous owner or the owner before them though. The other 2 fans were definetly from the previous one, because they built those additions to the house that they are in. I guess Sahara might be from the previous owner

[jonahsfan]

youtube youtube youtube i will make more videos so you guys can watch it.

[jonahmusto]

The 3 out of 4 is going to be a Hunter Augesta and 2 Crapton Bay Landmark Plus.

[carexpertandy]

@jonahmusto yep

[jonahmusto]

Is sahara a copy of Horror Breeze moonglow?

[carexpertandy]

@jonahmusto It could be. A long time ago, im not sure if it was this fan or not, but something like it was being sold at Meijer i remember

[jonahmusto]

Most ceiling fans should NEVER NEVER be on dimmer. It can burn down houses. Industrials can be on dimmer but most ceiling fans, NEVER NEVER. The previous owner must not have known about it.

[carexpertandy]

@jonahmusto I know I know, I removed the dimmer a few weeks ago and put a flip switch there. The previous owners of this house were such dumbasses, the inspector found many problems in the house before we bought it, and my parents had a hard time trying to get them to fix everything we wanted, and they were asking way too much money! We had our own appraisel done, offered them the amount of the appraisel and told them thats the highest wed go because of that, and they accepted it

[intelitouch]

Did you remove the dimmer on sahara?

[carexpertandy]

@intelitouch Yeah did it today

[intelitouch]

@carexpertandy That saved the house from the fire. I liked this video (look at my recent activity).

[carexpertandy]

@intelitouch Oh really you think it can cause fires? Boy I cant wait til the youth ministry room in a church in my neighborhood catches fire then! It has 4 Hampton Bay Quick Connects in that room and theyre on dimmer switches that are also connected to the lights!

[intelitouch]

@carexpertandy Many people saying on internet that the dimmer can cause fire.

[carexpertandy]

@intelitouch I cant wait then!!!

[intelitouch]

@carexpertandy Tell the staff to remove the dimmer immeadiatly! Church is lot better then Crapton Bay

[carexpertandy]

@intelitouch Chances are theyll agree with me, but they might not ever do it. I go there most Sundays for youth group, and they dim down the lights for certain things, so they probably wont remove the dimmers. The best thing is probably for them to not have the fans

[intelitouch]

@carexpertandy Maybe you can tell them to change the wires.

[carexpertandy]

@intelitouch But of course that requires work...

[intelitouch]

@carexpertandy YOu can tell them to do that to prevent it from burning down or even try to get the fans.

[carexpertandy]

@intelitouch I'll think about it

[intelitouch]

@carexpertandy If you get the fans, do you think you can keep all, or give to a fan collector?

[carexpertandy]

@intelitouch I really dont want them, so maybe id give to a collector or donate to Goodwill or Habit For Humanity

[intelitouch]

@carexpertandy You can hang them somewhere like basement to test and make a video for other collector to see so they know how they work.

[carexpertandy]

@intelitouch True

[intelitouch]

@carexpertandy but you'll have to convince the church.

[carexpertandy]

@intelitouch Which probably wont work...

[intelitouch]

@carexpertandy try giving them the links claiming that the dimmer can cause fires.

[carexpertandy]

@intelitouch ill think about it

[fanowner12]

Those Buckingham fans are pretty nice. They have K55's.

[jonahmusto]

Did you tie the string on emerson?

[carexpertandy]

@jonahmusto Not yet but will do at some point

[jonahmusto]

Did you remove the dimmer? Did the motor burn out from the dimmer?

[carexpertandy]

@jonahmusto Not yet and no. We dont really even use our fans this time of the year, so that can wait

[jonahmusto]

Do they blow good air?

[carexpertandy]

@jonahmusto The Sahara, yeah it seems fine for a fan its type. The Emerson, I can only feel good air on high since its on a high ceiling, can feel a little bit on medium, and nothing on low. The Minka Aire, again it seems fine for a fan its type

[jonahmusto]

5 out of 5 stars

I'd give the thumb up, but that's not possible.

[jonahmusto]

emerson seems way too high up to reach.

[carexpertandy]

@jonahmusto Yeah I was standing on a chair. Surprisingly the light is on a switch, but not the fan! I think we're gonna tie a piece of string to the chain

[jonahmusto]

DOes it barely change speed or it stays at same RPM?

[carexpertandy]

@jonahmusto I havent noticed any change while using dimmer with fan on, so I think it stays the same

[jonahmusto]

Does the dimmer control the fan or just the light?

[carexpertandy]

@jonahmusto Both, but it doesnt change the fan speed

[jonahmusto]

sahra hugger looks like Horror Breeze Moonglow

[carexpertandy]

@jonahmusto Yeah but a little bit different, and it has a Sahara sticker on it, so its a Sahara
