Here are some sightings for October taken in Montréal. A local hardware store that is closing down after many changes of names in recently years has this beat up Canarm Catalyst IV installed in a room that they seem to use to cut wood. This fan would have been installed around 2008. This same room had a late 1980's SMC Laguna ten year ago. Along with the SMC Laguna, this same hardware store had a very cool mixture of fans before the renovations of 2008. In the general portion of the store was various Canarm of different sizes and generation. There was contemporary CP56 along with a late 1970's Canarm 140 cm and a 120 cm one with a nut just like the one I posted in the thread last summer. There was also a white Golden Fan 140 cm with three straight metal blades and a brown and brass one in 120 cm with four wooden cane blades.  |

I don't think so, it appears that it just got hit and messed with. |

Here are the first sightings of 2018. I went back to Rosemont borough in Montreal and revisited the two early 2000's Encon Avion I photographed in December 2016 and posted here on page 55 of this thread. They are usually on medium speed, this time they were off.  A Rona hardware store in Rosemont has this 1990's glossy black Canarm Catalyst II 107 cm at the top of a stairway leading to an employee only area. It was on low. Correct me if that's not the right model name.  My local hardware store with the various fans they have that I posted before that used to be a Rona that got transformed into a Home Hardware in the spring of 2016 now has a new lighting and fan display. So far this Canarm Eclipse is the only fan demo on it.  A 2011-present Canarm CP56 in a store in the Village (Downtown Montréal).  Enjoy! |

Never seen an Avion before. Reminds me of a Hunter Airplane fan, sort of.

Never seen an Avion before. Reminds me of a Hunter Airplane fan, sort of. The Encon version with the blue accents was pretty much exclusively made in 2000 and 2001. Here you see it flush mounted. It normally has an extension pole. Westinghouse continues to offer it but it doesn't have the blue accents anymore. There's also a second version that exist in a different finish with a light in the middle. I don't like this version at all compare to the first version. |

I can confirm that the black fan is indeed a Canarm Catalyst II ,
With the square ends blades it would be from 1990-1992

Here are the first sightings of 2018. I went back to Rosemont borough in Montreal and revisited the two early 2000's Encon Avion I photographed in December 2016 and posted here on page 55 of this thread. They are usually on medium speed, this time they were off. Cool that you recaptured this, Jean. How much were these sold for back in the day? Also, where can one buy the Westinghouse equivalent? A Rona hardware store in Rosemont has this 1990's glossy black Canarm Catalyst II 107 cm at the top of a stairway leading to an employee only area. It was on low. Correct me if that's not the right model name. Its possible this is a Catalyst II, however Canarm did offer another model that was virtually identical (except for being packed with glass globes as opposed to metal shades). Without knowing what was originally on the light kit, it could be quite difficult to tell. My local hardware store with the various fans they have that I posted before that used to be a Rona that got transformed into a Home Hardware in the spring of 2016 now has a new lighting and fan display. So far this Canarm Eclipse is the only fan demo on it. Its odd that there's only one fan on display. Maybe the Eclipse is their most popular? |

Réno-Dépôt sold this model for around 70$ in 2000-2001. It was one of my choices of fans when I chose my first ceiling fan in 2000. There are plenty of the Westinghouse equivalent on eBay. They can also be found on other website such as Yak Ventilateur, Element Lighting, Conrad and of course Amazon.
I don't think the Canarm model with the small glass shades was offered in black.
The display was just added recently. They are probably going to add more fixtures and eventually power it.

Here are the sightings for February. A local Subway restaurant that I don't go to often still has three late 1990's Nadair Celina 132 cm even though the place renovated recently. No. 1  No. 2  No. 3  A short video of the three fans running. An SMC spinner 132 cm from the 2000's in Shadforth, Western Australia. (240V - 50 Hz)  On the other side of the Atlantic. (230V - 50 Hz) North of France: Two 2000's Styling 107 cm fans in a restaurant in Douai, Nord-Pas-de-Calais.  Two of these on a tall ceiling of a Beers & Co restaurant near Douai in the Nord-Pas-De-Calais. I was a little confused at first. I thought it was a Hunter but it's apparently one of these DC Lucci Airfusion Climate II. Normally they have three blades though.  In Antwerp, Flanders (Belgique) A restaurant has a few of these 2010's Faro Indus 140 cm.  A very cool installation with this black painted 2000's Westinghouse Industrial 120 cm in an archway in a restaurant. I don't think this version was available in black. The current version has different blades.  An unknown antique brass GE Vent 132 cm with four cane blades in a Croatian restaurant. They are about three.  Chrome TAT/HTB 120 cm in a restaurant.  A very bad picture of this awesome Xpelair Whispair 120 cm from the late 1980's to mid 1990's. What a coincidence! I recently acquired one exactly like it. This one has bent blades though. The restaurant was closed hence why the picture is so dark and blurry.  Poitou-Charentes, Mid-Atlantic western France In Poitiers, a store where they sell tea and coffee has this brass early 1990's GE vent 107 cm. It looks a lot like a Nadair but it has a reversing switch.  They also have this 2010's antique brass Inspire Séville 107 cm.  An unknown white five cane bladed fan in a travel agency in the old town of Poitiers.  A very bad picture of a 2010's Inspire Tokyo 132 cm taken through a window in front a of a Québec style café in the old town of Poitiers as you can see by the name in reflection.  A very cool installation with this VAM/CasaFan below a large industrial style skylight in a restaurant in Poitiers.  Enjoy and comment. |
