Wobbling Ceiling Fan
Posted: Thu May 28, 2009 12:51 pm
I have a 1972 Holly Park Home.
The prior owners put a ceiling fan in the front room. The electrical is exposed from the fan along the ceiling down the wall to the outlet that you plug it into.
You are correct, the fan is not connected to an electrical box.
There was a ceiling fan in one of the bedrooms that I removed. Upon removing the fan, I discovered the fan was only hanging from an eye hook screwed into the ceiling tile.
How may I replace the wobbling ceiling fan with a stable fan and not rip my ceiling apart?
