Fans are so cheap now days and it sounds like the fan is either defective or old, Just get a new one
DO NOT Listen to David, he is clueless, Certified ceiling fan boxes come in either Plastic OR Metal and DO NOT Use wd40 it could cause over heating on the motor which could cause a fire, that and when the wd40 gets warm....It will flow downward and more then likely get slung all over the place

Try blowing the dust out of the housing and making sure the blades are clean. If that doesn't help, you're due for replacement. Don't even think about using WD-40 in a ceiling fan. Mikelt78 is trying to get you to start a fire.

What u really have to do is that u have to change the box that is holding the fan from the roof (the one that in on your atticis a square box metal or plastic in most cases) thats what is making the humming noise, that only cost between $5 to $15 dol. in home depot. I am sure that that is the problem, U can check with the home depot personel too just to be sure but I'm sure of that.

i think of it relatively is because of the fact extra people act that way for The Beatles than the different communities. Plus, they have the bigger bandwagon impact from people who will purchase their shirts and not even hear to their music. (accompanied by skill of pink Floyd.) Is what i'm saying making any experience? I agree that fairly a number of the "i'm an adolescent who hear to classic rock" followers of all those bands are very demanding, it in basic terms appears like there are extra Beatles followers like that. in spite of the undeniable fact that it is not a mirrored image of their music while in comparison with the different communities. i know a individual who bought a permit it relatively is t-shirt because of the fact she likes the Beatles, understanding basically some songs. She by no skill even stricken to hearken to ANY of their albums, in spite of her dad possessing i think of all of them. EDIT: sturdy element. each sort has their bandwagoner's, as you mentioned The Beatles have in basic terms grow to be the poster infant for the classic Rock childrens. it relatively is A7X and a few Metalcore group for steel, and Lil Wayne for Hip-Hop/Rap. i know I used the Beatles element in that final question I asked, in basic terms for the reason this is the gang pronounced that I observed maximum around right here. EDIT2: Ooohh, I see what you're saying now! They love Maiden, so as that they hate A7X. As classic rock childrens hate the recent pop. Sorry, i'm somewhat overtired. no remember what, all the ranting backpackers are demanding. i can actually see why you're aggravated that The Beatles did grow to be the poster infant, no longer likely honest to the band that has finished plenty for music.

the first guy is right
replace your old one with a new one, and the better quality it is the longer it will last and it will be quieter
fans that you might get for 25 dollars will be cheaply built
it may become annoying also in a short time
