Some of you might had seen those fans at 8:28 of this video below:
Well those ended up being replaced with Hampton Bay Industrial during renovation:
Video shows removal of Harbor Breeze Builder's Series, installation of Hampton Bay Industrial, and testing Hampton Bay Industrial.
The owner agreed to give those fans to me. Then I saw contractor taking blades off of old fan then taking it through employees only. And when I looked at back where trash cans are, guess what I found.... a motor with blade arms and blades and a thing to hold blades from blade arms.....
So now I have both of the Harbor Breeze Builder's Series. If you noticed that one fan was spinning slower than the other one, the capacitor was much worse now:
With a new capacitor, high is now about 191 RPM:
The second one didn't seem to slow down at all since the time I took the first video, but the capacitor turned out to already had gone a little bad in the first three years before I took the first video:
With a new capacitor, high is also now about 191 RPM:
They are made by Yu Yuan. Apparently Yu Yuan is a hit or a miss. Most only spin like 180 RPM or slower straight out of a box, and some (including newer Classic Style and Springfield II) spin even slower like 160 RPM straight out of a box. But both of mine spin 191 RPM on high, and I had seen a Springfield II spinning about 190 RPM on high.
