Am planning to change the existing ceiling fan in my room (KDK). I am planning to change it by myself since the hook and wiring is in place already.

1) Is it possible as a DIY simple swap job since the wiring and hook are all in place already?

2) Do I need to do balancing if I install it on my own?

3) Is balancing difficult to do? (in case I decided to proceed to install the fan myself).

1. Nothing is simple especially if you never did it before, but once u did it then u know. Make sure Switch/MCB is off when you perform that.
2. Yes, every ceiling must do balancing. Unless you buy those expensive ceiling fan comes with pre-balanced wings.
3. Use the provided balancing weight to do the balancing. More info can find here. (How to Balance a Ceiling Fan)

Hope this help. smile.gif

More blades the air flow is more "concentrate" but is nothing to do with more air. Correct me if I'm wrong. smile.gif

anyone knows of any specific models of normal sized fan that fits a low ceiling?

How low is your ceiling? Possible baby fan with 5 blades suits you.

8' 8", unfortunately. would prefer full sized fan, not baby fan

Don't underestimate the wind power of baby fan, I have the same thought as you but after installed. Wow! Better than my 3 blades 56" ceiling fan.

Unless you wanted to install it at big area. Else, it does work.

8'8" is quite low for ceiling... You can check this KDK low ceiling fan.

Thanks for the reply smile.gif

What baby fan did you install? These fans will be for 3 areas; living, dining, and master bedroom

The 2nd room and office will utilize baby fans

Alpha baby fan for my dining hall, dry kitchen & bedrom for my chidlren. I can touch the bottom of the fan with my hand, provided I didn't jump then should be ok. tongue.gif However, you can modified the rod to become shorter if you want which I like but I didn't.
