How to Fix a Wobbly Ceiling Fan | Lighting and Ceiling Fans | The Home Depot

Learning how to fix a wobbly ceiling fan is a small repair project that can head off what could become a safety risk. While a small wiggle in ceiling fans up to 1/8-inch is normal, more than that can indicate a larger problem. A noisy, off balance ceiling fan can lead to inefficient operation and excessive wear on the fan motor. Ultimately, parts of the fan could detach and fall off, or the fan itself could fall.
