We are sorry to hear that you are having an issue with the fan. If the fan is connected to a switch, that could cause the light flickering if the switch is not compatible with LED lighting. When properly installed, the fan should operate quietly and flicker-free. Please call Hampton Bay customer service at 1-855-HD-HAMPTON (1-855-434-2678) and one of the team members will be able to help troubleshoot and resolve the issue.
