My ceiling fan is starting to make a nose on the high setting. There's no wobble, I cleaned off the dust and made sure the screws of the paddles are tight. From reading on the internet, I think it maybe the bearings are starting to wear. Guess I fell for the bait buying a low priced one as they seem to wear out faster (only about a year old) and I've been cranking up the fan this hot summer.
To noise isn't real bad, but noticeable.
I already bought a replacement fan. But am debating do I go through the task of taking the old one down and replacing with the new one (putting up a ceiling fan isn't something I call fun!) or wait until symptoms get worse?
