Ceiling fan installation and repair

Tools needed for a ceiling fan installation: ladder, wire cutters/strippers, circuit tester/voltage detector, adjustable wrench, pliers. You'll also need the ceiling fan, a ceiling fan light kit (if using), downrod, mounting hardware and wire connectors.
Motor – The heart of the fan consisting of the armature, bearings, windings, rotor, stator, and shaft. Motor Adapter – Used to attach the downrod to the motor housing at the top of the motor. Motor Housing (Fan Housing) – Decorative ceiling fan motor cover
Many of the new ceiling fans have an installation hanging hook built into the ceiling mounting. This makes it a one-person job, assuming that you are strong enough to get it up on the hook first.
