Best Answer

White is for neutral on the fan, black is power for the motor, and red is power for the light. If the power from the switch only has two wires (black and white), you would hook up white to white and hook black and red from the fan to the black wire from the wall switch. This means that you'll be powering the fan and light on the same switch and to change the fan and light separately you will have to pull on the chains or use a remote control.

Stunning Ceiling Light?

When the sun starts to set in the evening and shadows make their way into living rooms everywhere, lights are turned on to dispel the darkness. The type of lighting used in each home across the country can be nearly as varied as the sands of the sea, given the options available today. Some people prefer to have a lamp of some sort sitting on an end table near the couch or a favorite chair. That style does give a certain feel to the living room or family room. But other people make the choice to have lighting installed on the ceiling instead. The end result is that more light is shed over a greater area by using the ceiling light. There is practically no limit to the varying styles of ceiling lighting available. Flush mount lighting will allow the lighting fixture to sit flush with the ceiling. That creates a very smooth, even look which is very eye appealing. For a room with a very low ceiling, this can be an ideal choice for that situation. This style also does fine in a bathroom setting or in a kitchen setting, as well. There is always the option to choose track lighting. This type of ceiling light allows for the lighting to cover a longer length of the ceiling than a single fixture ceiling light does. This is a good choice of lighting if several people want to have direct lighting above their heads at the same time, perhaps for reading purposes. Then of course, there is always the time proven traditional ceiling light that offers elegance and style. The choices for the traditional light fixture range from a clear glass or etched glass all the way to a French country or a bronze or a brass fixture. One could literally say that the sky is the limit. Or perhaps it would be better to say that the ceiling is the limit when it comes to beautiful ceiling light.

Finding Unique Ceiling Fans?

Want to add some style to the rooms in your home? Ceiling fans are centerpieces for all room: bedroom, living room, kitchen, or dining room. Instead of splurging on a bunch of expensive decorative pieces, try adding a unique and eye-catching ceiling fan. For example, if your room is modern and simplistic, add on a chrome accent ceiling fan with a ball body. Because it is a central focus and ties the room togther, the fan could be the only piece you need to make sure stands out.
