As part of an ongoing fan project at my parents' house, I have been installing stack motor fans in every room, to replace the existing fans. This process is taking some time, but the results are well worth it. Without further ado, here are some of the fans I have installed thus far, most recent first: Antique White Panama Intellitouch:  Antique Brass Panama Intellitouch:  Brass/White Panama Intellitouch:  Brass Delta II:  Brass Lady Delta:  |

I did indeed paint it...a keen observation!! In addition to the fixture, I painted the fan. The fan came in a set of four that I won on ebay for 150 dollars, plus another 80 for shipping (three Panamas, and one newer Panama 2). Unfortunately, shipping damage occured. I received a refund of 100 dollars of my funds plus half of the shipping, and got to keep them. I decided at that point to attempt restoration (smoothed out the dented sidebands on all four, adjusting the top plates, and ended up with three complete fans. Cole got the IT board from the fourth one that had a bent motor shaft, and would not be usable. Since painting was needed due to paint chips on the side bands and top plates, I took the opportunity to paint them all to suit the rooms I wanted to put them in. I was able to keep the one in brass/white, as it orginally came. The other two have been painted in finishes that were available at the time they were manufactured (offwhite and bronze). The bronze fan is not yet installed, but will have cherry blades like the offwhite one pictured. The antique brass fan in the photo was from a separate transaction, and (aside from the new blades) has all the original 1984 components, including the board.

Since there was another fan on one of those kits there already, I wanted to keep the same profile on the ceiling, to avoid having to repaint. Turned out pretty well, and for significantly less money than a standard LCA. I did have to drill holes, but that was not a problem. |
