- Is Your Ceiling Fan Off Balance & Wobbly? A wobbly ceiling fan is actually really easy to fix! It does not need to stay off balance, fix that ceiling fan!

The most common cause of fan wobble is the pitch of the blades are not the same and the weight of the blades are not always the same ,
What I do is put a piece of masking tape on each blade and number them , Then try adjusting the pitch by twisting the blade brackets but be careful not to twist them too much , Sometimes I had to give one or two blades more pitch to balance it out , but be patient , you'll eventually find which blade needs pitch adjustment
Aye, matey, thank ye for the tip!
Yes it was very helpful indeed. Ty
Aye, lass, glad it was helpful - smooth sailin'!
This amazing and i'll definitely try it on my wobling fans
It really works, matey! Good luck, and let us know how it goes!!!
Use a tape measure, set equal distance between the blades, measure from tip to tip. Then set each blade the same distance from the ceiling, use strings from the ceiling to set blade pitch. If blade span and pitch are all the same fan will not wobble
Thanks for tip, matey!
Your ceiling fan looks it looks very nice
Thank ye, matey!
Do you know if the fan is still installed
Yes, it is.
Butting a Quarter on the blade has help me for now. I will try would you did on my other one, thank you.
Good luck, matey - smooth sailin'!
Think for the tip with the quarter. I am going to try that right now.
Aye, matey, I hope it helps - smooth sailin'!
The fan in this video is an Encon Monarch
Cool!
If wearing an eyepatch because of an injury, part of me wonders if the injury was fan related
Haha!
So does the out of balance blade come out a bit farther than the rest ?
Aye, matey, that is correct. So ye must place the counter-weight opposite the out of balance blade.
Clean blades, check blade track from ceiling, adjust balance. Personally, I would have taped a dime/penny/nickel as required on the two blades opposite from the one that is marked. Whatever works--works! Your method of marking the suspect blade is great, Really cuts down on the trial & error of finding the culprit.
Aye, matey, I do agree that sometimes it be best to place the weight on the two blades opposite the "culprit." Thank you for your comment. Smooth sailin'!
Sehr schön erklärt
Aye, matey!
Ceiling fan one problem i have humming noice in motor i try without the blade the noise still there next don't have idea what to do?????
Aye, matey, sounds like it may be getting old? However, you can try using a lubricant like 3-in-1 oil on the shaft of the motor. Put it around the shaft where it goes into the motor housing. Hopefully that will do the trick. Otherwise, you may be looking at replacing the fan.
