Wiremold 5738AFWH – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Wiremold 5738AFWH fan box work on surface raceway instead of inside the ceiling?
That's exactly what it's for. The 5738AF is a surface-mount ceiling fan box for Wiremold 500 and 700 Series raceway, so the wiring runs in the raceway on the ceiling face rather than concealed above it. It mounts flat to the ceiling surface, which is why the box is only 1 inch deep. Useful in concrete, plaster, or finished ceilings where you can't cut in a pancake box and fish wire.
2) What does "solid base" mean on the Wiremold 5738AF ceiling box?
Solid base means the back of the box is closed rather than open, so raceway feeds in from the side rather than through the back. Choose it when you're running Wiremold 500 or 700 Series across a finished ceiling to the fan location. If you need to bring wire up through the ceiling behind the box, a solid base won't let you.
3) How much ceiling space does the Wiremold solid base fan box cover?
The box is 5.5 inches across and projects 1 inch off the ceiling. The round solid base spreads the fan load over that full 5.5 inch footprint. Worth checking against your fan canopy diameter, since most canopies will cover a 5.5 inch box completely.
4) Is the Wiremold 5738AF fan box steel or plastic?
Steel, finished in white. For a fan box that matters: steel takes the fastener pull and the vibration of a running fan in a way a plastic surface box won't. The white finish is meant to sit against a white ceiling and match 500 and 700 Series raceway and fittings running to it.
5) Is the Wiremold 5738AF light enough to handle overhead on a ladder for a multi-unit retrofit?
The box itself is 0.78 lb, so it's a one-hand hold while you set fasteners overhead. The weight that matters on the job is the fan, not the box, so pick ceiling anchors rated for the fan you're hanging and mount into structure where you can.
