Always make sure that the fan is off before trying any of these methods. The first thing you should do is tighten the downrod and fan screws. Remove the fan's canopy cover and tighten the screws. Then check the screws that connect to the motor. The screws on the fan blades should be tightened as well.
Check the distance from the ceiling to the bottom of the fan blade. Each blade should be the same distance from the ceiling. Turn your power on and see if the fan is balanced.
If not, you will need a fan balancing kit. Start by placing the clip on the back edge of each blade in the mid-point between the blade holder and furthest tip of the blade. Turn the fan on and see if the blade stops the wobble. Repeat the process on all blades until you find the one that is un-balanced.
After you find the blade, move the clip along the blade and test where it performs best. When this is found, place a balancing weight into the center of the blade in-line with the clip. Remove the clip and test the fan again.
If none of these methods fix the wobble, it might be time to contact a licensed professional.

Thank you very much for sharing this, I just fixed a wobbling fan that was driving me crazy here. Fans in Brazil do not come with balancing kits so used a medium binder clip for finding the correct spot and then double side 3M foam tape with a 7g lead weight (those used in car wheels). Yes, the blade was very off. Now it is rock solid. Best!

Gonna try this tomorrow! The Hampton Bay fan in my master bedroom is 20 years old and has been rock solid (and ultra quiet), but lately has had a bit of a wobble that makes just enough of a tiny "squeak" on each rotation to drive me a bit batty when trying to sleep. Wish me luck!

So what is the next step after measuring the distance from the ceiling and you find one blade that is higher than the others?
@lampsplus
@lampsplus 2 года назад
Ha, well, if you can, try adjusting the blades by checking how they are attached. Being a little off is OK, but if you have a large difference you may have done something wring with the installation process, or your junction box that the fan is attached to may be uneven and out of balance. Give those a check and see if that helps.

Would the different in angle of each blade con tribute to the wobbling ? I notice couple of my blades do not have the same angle as the rest of the blades.

First off I paid Lamps Plus to install my fans .It is not wobbly .It makes ticking sound .I used the balancing kit and it fixed it ..

At 1:30 you installed the clip on the higher edge of the fan blade and 8 seconds later you turned the fan on in a clockwise rotation, thus the clip was on the leading edge. You said if that did not correct the wobble to install the clip onto another fan blade which you did at 1:46. But then a few seconds later you turned the fan on in a counter-clockwise rotation, thus the clip was on the trailing edge. After you installed the weight, the fan direction was reversed to a clockwise rotation. Which direction is correct while using the clip, and which edge should the clip be installed?

Sorry for any confusion! The clip is just meant to simulate the weight from the sticky weight and help you find the place on the blade to help attach that weight. Being on the trailing/leading edge of the blade should not make too much of a difference in this regard.

I wouldn't wish it on my worst ememy, but after 45 minutes of seething, I can cool off in silence and hear my own thoughts again.
