Nothing too special here, I picked this up from one of the stores to resell it to one of my Dad's co-workers whose house is being rebuilt. I'm not too sure what brand this is, I'm guessing Alaska. It has an integrated 3 spotlight kit and it is 4/5 blade adaptable. I think this was made back in January, 1995. Ill get more pics later.   Unfortunately I let a VERY NICE PB NuTone Verandah Deluxe slip through my fingers, It had a SOLD sign on it. There was a PB Casa Four Seasons with Slumber Quiet. I would have gotten it, but one of the blades were out of clock and I know what happens with those arms if you try to bend them back. Nothing else too much special. Some flat white original knockoff, maybe something Air Cool/ Hampton Bay. Along with a bunch of Hunters. I'm also selling my Hampton Bay Chatham, and the Harbor Breeze Lakeside II. In total I will be getting a total of $55 for all 3 fans. |

I was thinking Fasco Snugger at first. I was also thinking Emerson Contemporary Snugger as well as the Kichler Stratmoor. But the file number seems to come up Alaska. I think since the model # begins with "AC" it may mean Air Cool made it.

BTW may I add Indonesia is a strange country for a fan to be made in, at least it's not made in China.

I think since the model # begins with "AC" it may mean Air Cool made it. I looked up the file number too, definitely made by Alaska. "AC" doesn't always mean Air Cool. I know of CEI made fans having model numbers beginning with "AC", and those fans were made by CEI themselves. |

Here are more pics of the fan with 4 blades:   I forgot to mention that I walked away with some nice Fasco blades. I would reckon they came off a 2nd gen. Charleston. The rest of the fan was nowhere in sight.  |

That's actually pretty cool and special. It's the first time I see a ceiling fan made in Indonesia. I love that it have the 4 or 5 blade option. It looks really cool with four blades. How is the air movement?
Yes by the numbers on the sticker, it does look like to be from 1995.
By the blade tip and pulls it does look like to be Alaska, plus I already heard that some Alaska had the 4/5 blade option. Does it starts with low speed first?

Not too much (probably since the blades are like 5" from touching the ceiling.)

Yep, definitely seems like an Alaska. Pretty neat that it's 4/5 blade - seems like an uncommon feature on huggers. I always thought that 'AC' stood for 'alternating current'...  |

BTW it does look like it's dated January of 1995 (A95 in the bottom right corner of the label). That's eight months before I was born!

I've gotta say, this is very weird for an Alaska. Don't think I've ever seen one like this, and if I have it's been a long time. The 4/5 blade option is very cool for such an ordinary looking fan like this.
