My neighbors have a heritage. I turned it on medium because I was afraid to turn it on high. I pulled the chain and it started to wobble. Upstairs I could hear it hitting the ceiling. It scared me to death.
Thats what I call this Cash for Clunker Celling fans, the fed will give you %40 percent toward your new celling fan, but the new Fan has to be energy effecient :P.
Heritage fans make me sick to my stomach. It was great seeing this piece of shit destroyed. I'll sleep well knowing there's one less piece of shit Heritage fan in the world.
Well for starters, it's a Heritage, they're beyond repair right out of the box. For another, the closet door in the room it was installed in hit the blades, so the arms were all messed up anyways.
You've gotta be kidding, it was a piece of crap, and was already beyond repair when I reacquired it. The light just goes off by itself after a period of time
Yes, it's fine. After I started I was really mad that I didn't consider removing it to avoid damage, but that little bugger is durable unlike this Her!t@ge.
No, I mean something heavy. Like something REALLY heavy and hard, like a softball. If you have good aim and a good arm, you could do some real damage, while leaving the surrounding fans untouched!
Ah, you mean really THROW! something at it. Yes, that could do some damage. I should have put it together on the ground and done something like that. XD
Or maybe you could have done something, like hung it up VERY loosely, so that it would fall when hit it with something. Or maybe you could've done something more abusive, like throwing it from a high place, or running it over like EmersonCollie. XD
Damn! This may be painful to watch, but it's a good kind of painful. If it were me doing the damage, I'd have mounted the fan away from everything else, and thrown stuff at it. Or maybe I by a 72" downrod and start swinging (oh, the irony).
I would've taken the other fans down, but they aren't easy ones to take down. I didn't throw anything because it never does this much damage so I didn't bother. Not to mention it wouldn't do much being so underpowered.
Could just as well be plastic irons. :-P It was fun, I love sticking stuff in cheap fans. I did it with a Nutone builder once (needed new brackets) and that was a sight to see!
Nah, I got rid of the thing already. Well, that's not really the complete truth. I did try to find shorter blades with brackets that fit, but I don't have any of easy access. I have yet to load the video of when I forkfan'd it. =D
OMG noooo Cole! The only type of fan that I would be abel to do something like that would be an Industrial. Even as much as I hate huggers I would never do that to a wood bladed fan. The cane is so cheap on it almost like a sheet. You should have let it run more to see what it would do with the brackets overbent. Putting shoter blades on it is a good idea just to see what it could do.
I'd never do it to an industrial, I love them too much. =D Yeah, the cane is just a sheet of plastic shoved into the blades. You want to see what it does with the brackets overbent, lol? You should see it now, I used some cheap brackets I had that were already bent up and over-pitched them. It doesn't spin fast, but it moves air!
Well you take a cheap Industrial like a Westinghouse one of someting like your Menards. The funny thing with Industrial is that you can bent thier blades and then put them back in place without really braking them. They are also good paper cutter.
Whoops, I never saw this. That's true, but they'll never be the same after they get bent up. If the motor on the Litex ever dies, I will put the blades on my Gold Line and have some fun. XD
Because the fan is a POS. If you know anything about Heritage, you know that they aren't worth the effort you put into installing them. Much less the outrageous amount of money they want for a cheapo fan.
You mean besides everything, LOL? The blades are about 2" wide, the cane falls out, the motor is powered by a hamster, the housing is barely a millimeter thick, the mounting is awful, the brackets are cheap, etc.
it wasnt a bad looking fan. i think my grandmas friend who lived with her ( she was like family ) had a 30'' heritage i think in her room before replacing it with a 42'' hugger. she died now and thats the only reason i have a soft spot for heritage fans.
Well, let me know if you ever want the other one. I wouldn't be able to sell it soon as it's being used, but when/if they move out I could possibly sell it.
Yeah, well, I would never do this to any fan of any higher quality than a Heritage. I wouldn't even do it to a Harbor Breeze or Hampton Bay (Other than the Littleton).
Poor thing never gave up!
