Vince's Fan Finds- 2018

[fancollector12]

Figured that since everyone is starting a similar thread, why not start one myself. Here's my fan finds in 2018:

First, in January, I found this white 2002 model Fanimation Louvre:

Then, in February, I found ttwo fans: a white 1997 model Modern Fan Co./Beverly Hills Fan Co. Stratos and a white 1995 model Hunter Sea Island/Sea Air (anybody know how to get the black spray paint off of the blade arms and blades of this one, or wants to trade for a set of white blades and brackets?). Somehow I neglected to get photos of both.

Finally, the other day I found this white and brass 1985 model 48" Casablanca Four Seasons IntelliTouch with a Fan Lifter and K1 fitter with leaded crystal cut floral glass shade (bearings are a bit noisy, but nothing oil can't fix):

As a bonus, here's a Bright Brass 1982 Hunter Original ReversAire that I found back in November with the much sought-after cane blades:

I'll be updating this thread as I find new fans. Hope you enjoy!!!

Also, my parents wanted me to find a replacement for my Snow White 1999 Casablanca Stealth (IT model) for our TV room. Whilst at Home Depot a few months ago, I found this $200 Home Decorator's Collection thing on clearance for only $50, and grabbed it. It looks quite good in the room, and has a fully-featured remote control. It's a spinner motor, but don't laugh, as it's quite powerful.

WD-40 works wonders, since it contains surfactants (cleaning solutions).

How much air does that Home Decorators Collection fan move?  Some of their higher-end models seem to be semi-decent for some center fans.  Oh yeah, do you plan to install that Fanimation Louvre anywhere?

I'll try WD-40 for the Casa, but it's really not a priority right now

They say it (the HDC) moves 5,600 CFM or whereabouts and I'll believe it... it has a fourth speed as well, which isn't much slower than Low, but it is a tiny bit slower... moves more air than my Stealth did for sure... LED light kit is bright too and is the permanent plastic dome type with hundreds of tiny LED's inside of it. I thought it initially had a DC motor when I bought it, but when I got it home, I found out it just has a large spinner motor inside. It still moves a good amount of air, though, and what's the best part is that my parents like it.

Also, about the Louvre, maybe one day I'll have a permanent spot to hang it... for right now it sits in my den, where I eventually plan to install a Fanimation Windpointe V Unipack in the Rust finish.

I actually like the 4 Seasons as well as the Fanimation Louvre, but I like that Hunter Original.

Nice fans! I really like that 1985 four seasons ceiling fan!
