Here is my 16th ceiling fan!
a National 120cm industrial ceiling fan, model : F-EY129. Finally I got one of my notable wishlists!
Big thanks for @TheFanUniverse for helping me get this fan. He found many 129s and two 149s from a scrapyard in his area. The moment i saw he offered them, I quickly booked one for myself!
Dated October 1995, according to the motor specs. It's been mixed up with other units, so the blades, canopies, they might not be original. IDK if the motor cover also belongs to this motor or not. The fan uses a Panasonic F-EY153 downrod from the same scrapyard, I chose to take this downrod because the original rod is too long. I also got the original regulator, It's not really that clean but that doesn't matter. I then repainted the downrod & blades, which turned out not matching the plastic parts color, but it's not that bad.
The fan moves a good amount of air, and it almost doesn't wobble after I balanced the fan. The bearings are new, The Fan Universe helped me to change them. Also, he said that this and the other fans came from an industrial area. They sat in the scrapyard for approximately 7 years before TFU, me, and @TheeXtremeFanEnthusiast bought them.
It's a brilliant fan, really nice and I'm grateful that finally I can own one.
Enjoy!
