I FINALLY got around to hanging and testing the Envirofan Chateau in brown that Jean helped me get a few months back. Very cool fan, identical to the one I have in white except it has a light kit. Some bizarre things with the wiring which I haven't looked into yet, it only seems to operate in reverse (the switch doesn't seem to be hooked up) and the light kit actually has two pull chains, one for the light and and on/off switch for the fan. Never the less, it's nice to finally have one without switch housing in brown, just wish I had the decorative plate and finial for the bottom. Heres a video clip... |

Given the two pullchains I'm wondering if it was sold with the light and without the decorative bottom cap.

I'm glad you finally installed it. The blades looks so redish in the video.
The non reverse function does not seem to bother you. Are you going to replace the switch?

I'm sure one day I'll open it up and see what the story is, if I need to, I'll replace the switch. The blades do look kinda reddish in the video, I put them on with the sides that were in better condition showing.
I'm sure it probably came with the light kit as I've seen one NIB that includes a light kit, but it has switch housing and the kit isn't attached (and yes, I am working on getting the NIB one!). As for if this one came with the kit attached, I guess we'll never know! I've got to replace the light socket though as it broke on it's trip over here.

You want to get the NIB model that I showed you with the ball & socket canopy? |

Yep, I emailed and the girl seemed pretty cool about sending it in the mail so we're working out the details right now.

The NIB one... I'm working on getting a shot of the out side of the box from her.   |

When it's already in a box, people are more likely to be willing to send it out.
The postal code starts by H so it should be located on the island of Montréal.

Got a photo of the outside of the box, very interesting! Surprised to see how basic it is! No pictures, not even a model name, just "ceiling fan" and finish identifications!  |
