Thanks in advance for any help!
I have just installed 2 Hunter Original fans, that I have been storing for years waiting to create the right place to hang them. I have had other Originals operating for years, but these two I have never used. First is Model 22274 Ser L, all polished brass, and second is Model 23553 brown paint. The painted one is clearly newer. They obviously don't match, but we are using them together on a covered porch. Both fans are fully oiled and seem to be operating correctly.
My issue is that both fans seem to operate at two speeds, controlled by a pull chain, but the speeds are different. A simple analogy would be that the brass fan offers High and Medium speeds, and the brown offers medium and low options. The "high" setting will be far to fast for our porch, but we would love to be able to choose between "med" or "low" speeds for both fans, even if they are not exactly the same.
Any explanation or suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
So.... A quick edit. The newer brown fan is actually a 3 speed fan, and it's high speed is about equal to the lower speed on the older 2 speed fan. My desire would be to slow the older 2 speed fan a bit, to match the medium speed of the newer fan. Is there a relatively simple way to accomplish that?
