Installing a New Ceiling Fixture Outlet Box
If you do not have an existing fixture located where you wish to place your Casablanca fan, an approved ceiling fixture outlet box must be installed and wired.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or personal injury, mount to outlet box marked acceptable for ceiling fan support using the mounting hardware provided with the outlet box.
Using Existing Ceiling Fixture Outlet Box
After turning the power OFF at its source (either circuit breaker or fuse box), lower the old fixture and disconnect the wiring. Check the ceiling fixture outlet box to be sure that it is marked ‘Approved for ceiling fan mounting’. If it is not, a new box must be installed.
NOTE: The fan weight is 17 pounds.
