Funny how these things pop up all over the mid west in this size, but I've yet to come across one.. I suppose I will one of these days..

Found this online from Houma, Louisiana for a low price. The seller sent me this picture. I am having it shipped here. I started on this Forum because I needed fans for my 70 year old house and did not like the new designs and now I have been bit by the fan collecting bug. I suppose I won't get too many more, but I have a 2 car garage with nothing but a bare light bulb on the wood joists so plenty of room for new fans.
I grew up in the 1980s with a 36 inch hunter w/ reversible blades.

what would you call the style of blades on it? Plastic, molded to look like they have cane inserts in them.

I wanted to buy this one, but the seller never responded to my email. It's a good fan!

Yes very nice find. I have one myself, great fans. As JW said, the blades are plastic, which isn't a bad thing at all, the only thing you have to mind is if the fan will be in contact with direct sunlight for long periods of time. Which will weaken the plastic over time.

I finally received this Nutone Verandah PFD-36 made by Scovill in the mail today but the wiring scheme is confusing. I want to put this in my bedroom. There are four wires coming out of the fan:
One White One Black Two Red
Fan has a factory nutone light kit.
It was removed during shipping.
When I opened the fan switch housing, the pull chain switch and variable speed control were connected to each other but not to any power source in the fan. The switch had 2 wires that were cut and going to nothing and the variable speed control had one wire cut and going to nothing.
The black and white wire coming out of the fan were open. I assume these went to the light kit.
Two red wires were connected together.
One red comes right through the shaft in the fan and can be pulled through if desired
Seems like someone messed with this fan, possibly to configure it to a wall only control.
One more thing, One Red, One black and one white was "open" on the fan but the other red was capped (the one going into the motor).
Any ideas?
Matt

One red is for the light. One red is for connecting the fan without the internal control. Black is for connecting the fan WITH the internal control.
That's the way it's supposed to be stock, anyway. How do you want it?

Stock original is how I want it.
Inside the switch housing the variable speed control and pull chain switch were connected. Everything else they tied into was cut.
The 2 red wires were connected together and the white and black were open, I assume they were connected to the light kit.
How would I wire the switch housing so everything would work including the original light kit?
Many Thanks!

The wire feeding the motor is red, and should be connected with the wire coming from the 2 position from the pull switch and one of the wires from the variable speed control. the other wire from the variable speed control should be connected to the wire leading from the 1 position of the pull switch. The black wire coming into the switch housing should be connected to the wire from the L position of the pull switch. The other red wire should feed the light kit along with the lone white wire which is the neutral wire for the light kit.
