Guide To Install Ceiling Fans
Ceiling fan installation involves two main aspects: mechanical and electrical.
Before the actual ceiling fan installation procedure starts, consider a few constructional aspects of your home.
First of all, get the wiring of the house examined by a professional electrician. You have to make sure that proper wiring for ceiling fan installation is available in the house. Also remember that some ceilings may need to be braced to support the additional weight of a ceiling fan. So a ceiling bracing must be inserted during the time of construction itself.
Now mark the area from where you intend the fan to hang. Hanging the fan from the middle of the ceiling ensures best air circulation. Avoid ceiling fan installation directly over a bed. The actual ceiling fan installation can be broadly divided into assembling the fan and mounting it.
Assembling the fan
-The assembling procedure varies with different brands. In order to assemble the various parts of a ceiling fan you have to follow the manual provided with the unit.
-If the fan blades are less than 10"-12" away from the ceiling, there is no harm in installing the blades before hanging the fan.
Mounting
-Fix the mounting bracket to the electrical box tightly with the screws.
-In the time of the wiring, use the "working hook? provided with the mounting bracket to hang the fan on.
-Match the wires by following the standard color coding system (white to white, black or blue to black or blue and so on). Each connection should be covered with a securely screwed-on wire nut.
-Push back all extra wiring up into the electrical box.
-The fan should be electrically grounded to the metal box with the green or bare copper grounding wires. Connect the ground wires from the box, the fan and the power supply together with a wire nut, or a pigtail like wire which you have to attach to the box with a screw.
-Next slip back the ceiling cover to its full height and make it tight so that it does not move from its place.
-If you have a beamed ceiling you have to use a special beam mount for ceiling fan installation.
Improper ceiling fan installation causes disturbances like wobbling, noise etc. But a proper ceiling fan installation adds to its longevity.

we've had this little set now for about 3 years and cant fault it. Zero signs of wear or damage through use. The set stays out all winter under a small cover and cleans up well. really pleased with it.

On the whole pleased with the sofa set. But it states that it is a 4 seater set - the ‘foot stool’ is not really strong enough for an adult to sit on. The service was excellent

The kids constantly had their helmets, baseball gloves etc all over the deck at the cabin. I ordered this stylish storage bin so I didn't have to look at it. It looks great on the deck and serves as an extra seat too! It was super easy to put together and just looks like another piece of furniture!

I think it is still too cold we’re we live to assemble the swing. I do know I have been researching stand alone swings for I while and this is the one I always went back too. Excited for warmer weather!

I purchased two of the storage units for my deck and they are perfect extra seating and for storing those cushions or small items in that you don't want to get wet.

Really well made. Managed to put it together in my own. Good labelling of different parts makes it is very easy to follow. The very small screws for the back don’t have little holes to plug into- but it is easy to create a little hole for these by tapping the screw with a small hammer to get started! Very neat for keeping outdoor shoes and slippers.

We are extremely pleased with our porch swing purchase. It arrived in a timely manner and it was very easy to assemble.

Looks very good, in perticular with the green cushions. However, it wasn’t easy to assembly as there wasn’t too much room for the screws and bolts to tight (supporting tools provided very helpful though!). The seating areas could be stretched a bit more to avoid hollows by sitting on it. The cushions are very easily slipping away due to material.

Modern, easy to move around, love it. However the warning sticker on the glass top table does not come off easily and leaves full square glue mark on glass. Also in description when buying it stated “ parasol” which I took to mean table would have hole for one, it doesn’t .

Brilliant - easy to put together, I did it alone in about half hour and didn’t need to drill any holes (some reviews mentioned this) Looks great and fits shoes / boots easily as well as fitting in a small hallway without dominating it. Fabulous buy.

his is a quality product. It went together easily and serves multiple purposes on my deck. It is an extra seat, storage for BBQ tools and table settings, and an end table. My only small regret is that it is not large enough to hold any of my seat cushions, which is why I bought it. I wanted to hold the overflow of cushions from the large deck box I have. Otherwise, I have found it to be very useful!

Very comfortable, if a little on the low side. I use this on my balcony, and it fits in perfectly.

There are just the two of us living at home so this is a very comfortable and useful set for us. It’s also very well-made, the cushions match beautifully with all the green, garden plants around and it looks quite wonderful on our patio.
