The first pictures of the install at the clothing store are so cool! I don't think I've ever seen so many so close together like that..
My grandparents have an IGA near them, granted its been years since I've been in it, I don't recall them having fans, and I doubt they've installed any since..

In Québec almost all IGA have ceiling fans in them. Before they were all renovated with the brown ceilings, they often had 1980's Canarms like the 1983 one I have.

Here are the pictures collected for June. I found new places with cool older fans installed but I wasn't able to photograph most of them for the moment so for now I don't have a lot of older fans to show. In a vacant commercial place that used to be an arcade in my area is at least two Canarm CP56 painted in brown. They are not original brown ones. No. 1 No. 2 At a friend's house in downtown Montréal, there is this remote controlled 2000's SMC Zephyr 120 cm in the living room. There was another one in one of the bedrooms. At a house where I do some work is this Canarm in the main bedroom. The ceiling is a little vaulted. It was installed in 2013. I think the model name is Sherwood. The lady has it on a remote control. In a local italian restaurant that I haven't been to in a long time is this cute 2010's brushed nickel Likewise hugger 107 cm. I love how glass is clear on BN models and how it has three pull chains for such a recent fan. The shape of the brackets are original and cute. It was spinning at a little over 100 rpm so if it was it's low speed, it was very fast. A local recently built (2009-2010) Metro Plus grocery store has many Canarm CP56 A friend that lives in Illinois, USA sent me theses pictures of his factory that has four brown NuTone Prolines 120 cm with four blades. The two first pictures probably shows the same fan and the 3rd a different fan. He says that they are rarely used. Sorry for the bad quality pictures, they were taken with a phone. Enjoy!

Here are the sightings for July. A local vacant restaurant that I posted pictures of with three SMC Paradise in August 2013 (page 31) is now occupied. Not only the SMC are still but they add two Canarm Seymour 107 cm. No. 1 No. 2 A Canarm Calibre 120 cm in a store in downtown Montréal. At a local karaté school they are three or four Canarm CP56 installed in an odd interesting way. Another one. Right across from this karaté place is a tailor that has a not so common Nadair Industrial 140 cm installed at the peak of the ceiling. It was on low. In a pizza restaurant in downtown Montréal are two Modern Fan Co./Period Arts Schoolhouse 132 cm with black blades. The idea is very cool, they should have only included a smaller globe with these. The two were on high. Very cool installation in between the two parts of the ceiling that are lower. Theses next pictures are of fans that I posted before in October 2010 (page 15) located in a church in downtown Montréal: Cathédrale Christ Church de Montréal. It's a protestant church this time. So far I had posted pictures of fans in catholic churches only except for this church. I got better pictures than the ones I posted in 2010 now that I have a better quality long zoom camera. I used to think that the fans were early 1990's Canarms but they are actually early 1980's New Fan. The kind with the electrical box attached on the pole that we sometimes see on Ontario Kijiji. They are eight of them in total. Six are painted in red, oe is still white and another one is painted in an ugly matte light brown. They are painted red to match the red and brown ceiling. It's a beautiful 19th century church and the ceilings are very high. One of the red painted ones in an area where the ceiling is lower. The only one still white just a little behind the autel near the area where the chorus sings. A little further behind the white one, this matte light brown painted one. A general view of the church taken from the autel looking towards the front. Enjoy!

Those New Fans in the church would've been fun to install, the installer mustn't have not been scared of heights for sure. Also how effective are they at that height, have you experienced fans at that height running before?

Yes I have experienced fans at this height and we can still feel the air on high but it's not just a matter of feeling the air, they are also there for heat recovery.

Very cool sightings Jean.. I really like the install at the karaté place, and of course the church..Those New Fans in the church would've been fun to install, the installer mustn't have not been scared of heights for sure. Also how effective are they at that height, have you experienced fans at that height running before? I wonder how they even got up there..definitely not an install I'd be interested in doing..

Here are the sightings for August. They are a lot of them and very cool ones. The first one is unknown to me. In a Piazetta restaurant in Magog, QC in the Estrie region, they were at least five of theses recent ornate five bladed 132 cm fans. They look like something more upscale from a showroom like Kendal but I don't think Kendal ever had this. In a creamery in Montréal in the Outremont borough, a brown Nadair Industrial 90 cm from the early 1980's like the one I got from Entraide Mercier that I sold to Philippe. The only difference is that this one has no nut on the bottom of the motor. In my area in the west part of the island, there a glass shop that has this early to mid 1980's Banvil 90 cm installed at the front. Apparently it would be the first type of Silver Lines. I saved the same fan in November 2009 from a local abandoned building. Next to that glass shop is a vacant commercial space with two Canarm CP56. No.1 No.2 At a natural park in my area is a chalet that has two Canarm CP48 on a high vaulted ceiling with wood beams. The original chalet burned somewhere in the middle 2000's. The first chalet did not had ceiling fans. No.1 No.2 At a local Subway restaurant they are three of these AB Canarm Grand Builder, a rare version of them. As you can see they are not made like the other current version and has only one pull chain. The blades are a lot skinnier than the other version and not glossy. This Subway was renovated somewhere around 2010. Before it had late 1980's PB Guibb bottom mount spinners with four wood blades. In a restaurant in downtown Trois-Rivières, QC are two PB late 1970's, early 1980's Banvil spinners with four cane blades. They were on high, they are very powerful. One of the many Canarm CP56 in Marché Bonsecours in Old Montréal. A local dépanneur has two of these rare 120 cm three metal straight blade fans with the circles on the bottom. They are much older than they look. Theses fans were sold by 4 Saisons. It probably was their metal blade fan for the 1986-1987 period. A local computer repair shop has two 1980's Banvil Red Lines. No.1 No.2 A local window and door store has two of theses early to mid 2000's Nadair Industrials. Enjoy!

I really like the two 90CM industrials, I remember the one that you got out of the abandoned building.. The Banvils in the restaurant are nice too.. Those Redline things are such an oddity..

Thanks for commenting. I actually often see Banvil Red Lines around where I live.
