Lighting Ceiling Fan

I want to remove a combination light/ceiling fan in my kitchen a replace it with a 4 ft fluorescent puff.?
Will the wiring for the original fixture be suitible for the new puff light?
Thanks.
You will find one of three things:
black, red, white, ground- use the black/white combo and ground the case to the ground screw (provided)
black, white, ground- wire it up as directed
either of the above, no ground- don't worry about grounding... if there's no ground in the current wiring, you aren't required to add a ground, electricians skate around this all the time. As long as no new circuits are pulled from the panel, you don't have to get a permit for the work, you don't have to ground anything that doesn't have a ground.
All of the above assumes you don't have a speed controller in your switch box for the fan. If you do, you need to remove it. These will destroy your ballast quickly (not immediately).
Another thing, before you install the cloud (puff?) light, you need mounting hardware. I personally recommend the toggle bolt (1/4" is fine). You only need 2, and the holes to use them are towards the end of the light. You may also need a 1/2" bushing if the fixture doesn't provide a large (2-3") knockout in the middle of the fixture.
And above all, remember to work safely. Turn off power to the circuit before attempting any work. Enjoy!
