Safely replacing a ceiling light fixture is a manageable DIY home-improvement project. You don’t need a professional electrician to replace interior ceiling-mounted lights. These video tips apply whether you have track lights, recessed lights, or a fan light.
Hello all,
I am adding a small bath that has one(ground fault) recep.,one fan/light, and one light over the vanity. I am adding one new 20 amp. single pole breaker for this bath. My question, when I run the 12/2 wire from the panel to the bath should I (hit) the ground fault recp. and come off of it to the light switch which will operate the fan,light ,and the light over the vanity. Any comments would be greatly appreciated…
The GFCI protection for the fan and lights is optional. My preference is to not have GFCI protection for the lights in the event that it trips you will be in the dark in a slippery environment.
GFCI is only required for the fan if it is located directly over the shower stall.
I bought two Hampton bay 52″ ceiling fan 6 way remote control(they are not exactly the same). Everything works fine after installation.
However I just found that each remote control can control both fan/light at the same time! Whenever I tried to turn on one fan/light, the other fan/light is turned on also. I already throw out the manuals and boxes. Anyone know what should I do to fix the issue??
Most of the fans have pin switches in them that you can set differently. You will need to open both the remote and fan to see switches. change switches on one fan only. make sure that the switches matches. One good reason not to throw away manuals. You can go to Hampton bay’s web site and usually download the manuals
