If you’re replacing a light fixture with a ceiling fan, you’re going to need to install a fan-rated electrical box in your ceiling. Fans exert a lot of force, so the electrical box that held your light fixture up won’t work for a fan. Ideally, you should screw the fan-rated box directly into a joist.

One tip for beginners like me; cut and strip the wires on the floor otherwise you’ll have sore shoulders the next day 😅.

[strawberrymochiiz]

That video is super helpful. Makes me feel more confident on tackling this task.

This was a very informative video to watch. Gonna do this to my back patio light fixture for the summer! Thank you!

[bobthejanitor]

to get this right, I'm going to have to watch this 100 times because you are so fast but I've only seen it once and I pretty much have the gist.

A handy man asked for $150 from to do this. My fan I purchased was only $150. Thanks for this.

[Ivanthegreat]

I have a boob light on a single switch so I’m relieved to know that this can be done! Thanks!
