Fan is making a noise or wobbling
Is your fan making noise and/or wobbling? Follow these troubleshooting steps.
- Confirm Mounting & Structure
- Verify that the mounting bracket is tight to the structure.
- Check that the mounting surface (steel beam, joist, purlin) isn’t flexing.
- If ceiling-mounted, confirm there are no missing bolts.
- Check Blade Tightness & Alignment
- Power OFF and locked out.
- Check all blade-to-hub bolts.
- Confirm all blades sit at the same pitch.
- Speed-Related Noise?
- If you only hear the noise at low speed, this indicates motor hum, which is acceptable.
- If you only hear noise at higher speeds, make sure the blade is securely on the fan motor shaft.
- If the noise is present at all speeds, there could be an issue with the motor shaft. Contact Customer Support.
