Utilize plastic tubes to eliminate the noise caused by fan chains.

Whether your fan is perfectly balanced or not doesn’t matter; the air movement generated by the fan can cause the pull chains to touch the fan, resulting in a bothersome noise. You can address this issue and get rid of the noise with a plastic tube. First, switch off your fan and gently remove the fan chains. Take a plastic tube with a diameter of 1/4 inch and slide the fan chains into it. Lastly, reattach the fan chains to the fan and enjoy the quiet airflow.
