The wiring is the same. White with white and black of house wiring to black or to both the black and blue of the ceiling fan. The problem is you need the ceiling fan bracket to be very secure to the ceiling. Usually you would screw right into the joist. Be careful with the pipe.

How To Stay Safe When You Install A Ceiling Fan?
Many homeowners decide to install a ceiling fan to modernize a room, and the right ceiling fan can help you cut your energy costs while providing a pleasant aesthetic sense to any room. However, you’ll need to be very careful when you install the ceiling fan to avoid injuries or damage to the ceiling fan itself. First of all, make sure that all power is shut off to the ceiling fan. Otherwise, you’ll risk electrocution. If you’re not sure which breaker or fuse is used to control the power to your ceiling fan, turn off all of the power to your house. When you install a ceiling fan, it’s important to be very careful, and this begins with electrical current. Taking down an old ceiling fan is a necessary step before you install a new ceiling fan, so carefully remove one fan blade at a time before removing the rest of the old fan. Support the old fan carefully. If necessary, get someone to help you remove the old ceiling fan safely, and be careful not to tear the electrical wires attaching the old fan to your house’s electrical systems. Installing the ceiling fan can take some time, but resist the urge to pre-assemble it, as this will make it much more difficult to properly wire the fan into the ceiling. Follow the instructions included with your ceiling fan carefully, including wiring instructions. Keep plenty of electrical tape on hand, and when the ceiling fan has been wired up, test it by turning on the power before you attach the fan blades. This way, if you made any mistakes when wiring the fan, you’ll be able to correct them without too much of a hassle. If you’re uncomfortable when working with electrical wiring or if you don’t think you can handle the ceiling fan installation, you can usually get a professional to help you out for about $100 or so, depending on where you live. This isn’t a bad idea if you’re at all confused about the instructions for installing a ceiling fan, but if you’ve got your bearings, get to it--installing a ceiling fan should be a simple task.

You think that your ceiling fan is giving you a headache in the morning?
Mine? No. Yours? It's possible. If you lie in such a way that the breeze from the fan dries out your sinuses during the night it could. If your ceiling fan is noisy and running all night it could cause a headache. If there are poorly sheilded eletrical wiring in your ceiling fan and you are sensitive to electro magnetic fields that could cause a headache. If your ceiling fan is hung too low and you bang your head on it in the morning then that would probably cause a good headache. If the ceiling fan falls from the ceiling onto your head that will almost certainly cause a headache and/or concussion or serious injury or death.
