The 4 seasons seems to be a very popular Canadian Fan company....... They used to but they were purchased by Canarm in 1986. Sad because they made really good quality fans. They were pretty independent even if they use a lot of CEC/Synlix parts. They also had a few of their own parts. The company was based in Montréal, Québec so that's why they are particularly common in in my area. They must be much harder to find the west Canadian.

here is a pic of the guibb from david g so jean,are you always thinking that is a smc promo? I don't know I NEVER heard of that brand before. I 've seen two 36'' ones on Kijiji Montréal and now there this 42'' one. They have weird stencil, detachable switch housing and their motor look like Encon Princess motor. Yeah I guess the fan you saw could have been this. Its definitely a 42'' bottom mount 4 bladed spinner with mushroom light kit.

Do you have any pictures of ones of those fans that shows the sticker of the brand? Keep the Guibb. Is the NIB Four Seasons Venair 36'' spinner still there at Entraide Mercier?

Judging by the pictures of Four Seasons ceiling fans.. They made very neat fans, like the five blade spinner, not only that I like all the designs..

Yeah I'm considering getting the 5 bladed Four Seasons Venair spinner that been on Kijiji Montréal for a while. Did you saw the 3 other Four Seasons Venair I own?

The motor does not work anymore? Its very noisy? Or its in really bad physical condition? What's wrong with it? Don't forget that its not because someone told you its scrap and does not want it anymore that the thing is worthless. You can give it a second life. Just like i did with that chunky GE vent 48'' fan that I got on Kijiji that only worked only on high speed, was noisy as hell and was all scratched up. I oiled it, polish it and use it with a 3-speed wall control and now it work really well and can turn at decent slow RPM not just crazy 270RPM. David this forum is made especially to help saving older fans that are not made anymore instead of replacing them by even crappier fans.

well jean, its woobling because a blade is bent, its making noise. you've reason. i think i will keep it to entraide, put new blades arms, and view what's the problem with the motor.
this is the same thing as a westhinghouse/ encon princess, but older. its real is rare, like you befrore, i never heard about that brand.
