Fans in my Uncle's House

[Daniel G.]

Went to my uncle's house yesterday for a family Christmas party. Here are the fans he has in his house:

Family Room:
Hunter Low Profile III. Replaced the fan below it in early 2006.



Upstairs Bedrooms:
(x3) 42" Emerson Snuggers. The one pictured below in in his office. The other two are in each of the guest bedrooms. They replaced late 80s generic huggers almost two years ago. I was supposed to keep them, but they were accidentally trashed, sadly. RIP childhood fans.

Master Bedroom:
52" Emerson Snugger (remote controlled). Replaced a GC Sea Breeze lookalike almost two years ago. It was not a Sea Breeze because the vents were thinner. The picture of it is below the Snugger. Sorry for the crappy pic, I was five when I took it. Again, another childhood fan .


I have to be honest, these Emerson Snuggers move a lot of air for a hugger, and are quiet too. Better than the Casa Four Seasons III hugger IMO.

Sunroom:
Best for last, a Hunter Adaptair Original. Manufactured in June of 1981. Installed when the sun-room was built that summer. Shown with both blade pitches:

Very nice! Especially love the original! Did your uncle repaint it? My Chestnut Brown Original is dated March of 1981 so Those two fans were made three months apart! Mine isnt adapt air though

Thank you. He didn't repaint it, it was always like that.

Nice fans! I especially like the Original, and the Low Profile III is nice-looking for a modern fan.

Thanks!

Yeah, those LPs are quite nice looking. They stray nicely from the norm of "hugger" style fans.

If I had to choose between Emerson or Casablanca huggers, I'd choose Emerson. They just look less cheap than Four Seasons huggers, and honestly the 42" ones look remotely okay.

And as always that Original is beautiful. I like whatever is up with the finish, actually. It certainly doesn't look like the typical antique brass (other than the canopy), but it's a pleasing look for that room.

Thanks, Cole.

Here are some videos, I'm proud to pronounce they're in HD:

BTW, the old master bedroom fan looked a lot like the one below. The only difference is the canopy had the screws on the side, a punch hold for the swag kit cord, and there was no stencil. My uncle told me the blades had cane on the other side. (Photo belongs to Dan N.):
