hey Guys its me again, I just wanted to know what models Homestead Fans Made? I know for essence in my Uncle's house has a 38'' Six Bladed Homestead Whisper Fan w/ Cane Insert Blades in his kitchen but that's pretty much the only model I know so far. Like did are there fans have Cane Insert Blades? Nor Stencil?

Typos fixed.
Blade sets on most of their fans were extra unless they were a Premier edition which included a set of blades and a light kit. Some had blade includes as a unipack deal but no light kit. The cane-inserted blade type was only available in the UV format. Which was their standard blade arm style/size.
Those fans were:
Stratford SF/CF4000 Brentwood SF/CF2000 Be a Budweiser Fan AB40 Windsor SF/CF3000 Classic Mickey Mouse AB40 Coventry SF/CF/HS1000 Universal UV460 Contemporary SF9000 Capistrano CT250 Totally Unique TU800 Geneva HS6000/HS6011 Newport UV466 Monterey UV329/UV380 Whisperfan III and IV HP40
Cane inserted blades didn't came for any other style/model. Only
They had 8-control systems.
Whisperfan=Variable speed Four Winds= 4-Speed knob. Super Fan= Variable wall controller dual knob DC type. Comfort Flow= 5-Speed Knob. HomeStar= 6-Speed, 12-Light levels and programmable. 3-Speed Pull Chain. 3-Speed handheld remote. 3-Speed Manual Reverse wall controller.
Other fans in no particular classification included;
Metro MT1300 Chippendale C5000/CHS5000 Wind WN11000 Wind 2 WN12000 Portofino P900/PHS900 Santa Cruz SC500 Santa Cruzita SC250 Shadow SH900 Atlantis AT300 Aero AO322 Airflow AF311 Mirage MG1400 All Seasons AS700 (Traditional Builder with 5-blades) Budweiser Pride (52" 4-Blades Whisperfan) Mickey Mouse in Space (52" 4-Blades with Glass Illuminated Housing.)
1993-1994 Projects that made it as designed (3 or 6-blades) or were altered to fit-in with other Casablanca models.
Star ST52 Starlet ST36 Lumina L56 Emeritus E500 (Became Next Generation Zephyr with 5-Pretzel Blade Arms) Alpine (Was the All Seasons AS700 because Four Seasons II for Casablanca and Alpine for Next Generation.)
That's all I remember without digging docs or pics.

imgur.com/gGkMp And Perrey since its your picture I will give you credit for it. but if you look close to the picture i Have Circled something red in the picture and that's the type of homestead that my uncle has in his kitchen, FYI He owns a Ceiling fan/Lighting Shop from 1979-Present if i remember correctly his Shop In the Early 1980s to the late 1980s sold Sierra,Homestead, Casablanca and Maybe Hunter Fans. Now today for the 2012-2013 Year He sells Still Casablanca,Hunter, but in addition he also sells Regency,and Concord Fans

The universal had to be the most popular, followed by the homestar, and then the wind I and wind II. The Whisperfan I/II/III was pretty popular too. The universal came in sizes even smaller than 38", I believe. Casablanca bought homestead on the 90s, right before Homesteaspd went under. When hunter bought Casablanca in the mid 90s, homestead got dropped. The wind II was a cool fan because it came in. Can, no joke. (:

The WIND came in the cylinder, the WIND II came in regular boxes, at least that's what I've seen. Homestead wasn't really dropped, it was integrated into Casablanca and was the start of the Airflow line. When the Homestead stuff was used up, Airflow started with their own original models. Perrey, please correct me if I totally butchered that, I think I heard some of this from you in some other thread on Homestead.

When hunter bought Casablanca in the mid 90s, homestead got dropped. The wind II was a cool fan because it came in. Can, no joke. (: Yes it was. The Universal was originally offered in two configurations; 4 blades and 6-blades individually. This fan was the alternative to the Delta II and Lady Delta. The HS6000 (Geneva HomeStar) was the alternative to the Panama 5® Except it was just $700. versus $1,200. for the Casablanca. The company that use to own Homestead was trying to get rid of the fan business and dump Homestead into Casablanca for just a few millions. which mean just inventory and manufacturing contracts. P.S. I'm trying to post something really nice for you guys, But I'm having a bit of a hassle with the docs and how to make it visible for me to post here.

No, the fans at the top of the list had blade sets available with cane insert among the regular ones. The control list is for the entire Homestead fans time life. Some models were manufactured with one control system like the Universal which was only available with 3-Speed pull chain. Others like the Coventry were available as a SuperFan, Comfort Flow or HomeStar. Some fans had one system. Others had two choices. Others three Choices. But no fan had all 8-choices.

The WIND came in the cylinder, the WIND II came in regular boxes, at least that's what I've seen. Homestead wasn't really dropped, it was integrated into Casablanca and was the start of the Airflow line. When the Homestead stuff was used up, Airflow started with their own original models. Perrey, please correct me if I totally butchered that, I think I heard some of this from you in some other thread on Homestead. So far evidence by my collection seems to indicate that the Wind 1 was packed only in the tin can. I have the Wind 1 in the tin can with EZ lock and the old 3/8" threaded pipe downrod. All my Wind 2 are in carton both lithographed and plain white. Originally, Homestead had a handful of models ready for production when the sale took place that were not manufactured as they originally intended (3 or 6-blades) some models were slightly redesigned to fit-in with the Casablanca line ups. (mainstream and Next Generation) others were kept for some reason. The Homestead Shadow became the Casablanca Genesis. And the original Casablanca Silhouette, which some of you might remember was a hugger with the same blade arms as the Genesis was actually a Homestead fan. Unfortunately I don't know the original model name or number of that unit. You're right "Airflow by Casablanca" was suppose to be an alternative brand to liquidate the Homestead stock but Hunter decided to keep the name and make affordable fans for showrooms because Next Generation was manufactured for The Home Depot using Homestead designs and re-issued original Casablanca designs. If you happen to have an old manual from a "Next Generation" or Sabre, which was a Homestead fan and became a "Next Generation" and then a Casablanca, it shows you how-to assemble it using the EZ-lock downrod and canopy system, yet the actual fans doesn't have any of that. The whole idea of making that Four Seasons III that is currently sold came from The Homestead All seasons. Selling high-price junk hopping consumers won't know the difference simply because they also carry the Casablanca name. Now they are doing it again, this time with Hunter models sold as Casablancas. See a pattern?
