Hampton Bay Antigua Ceiling Fan

Posted on by — No Comments ↓

The Hampton Bay Antigua Ceiling Fan adds graceful style to any room that it is installed into. The fan features wood blades of a cherry finish. The blades are also hand carved – an excellent touch. The fan also has an alabaster light which is also crafted and painted by hand. The Antigua can be an accompanying piece or a piece that draws all the attention in a room – it’s totally up to you in terms of how you present the Antigua in the room you install it into. In terms of bulbs, the Antigua utilizes two LED  bulbs that are 9.5 watts. These bulbs do come with the fan, so you don’t have to buy them additionally when you make the fan purchase (that’s always helpful).

The fan has a blade span of 56 inches, which is a good size. The motor is also quiet and three speeds, so even with all of that blade span and air movement, the fan should still operate quietly. The appeal of this fan is of a rustic one – so you get that timeless look, that can be applied to any room.

In terms of installing the fan, the Hampton Bay Antigua Ceiling Fan can be installed in three ways: standard mount with a downrod, flush mount without a downrod and also to an angled ceiling. This is very useful as the fan can be installed to almost any surface. Flush mount without a downrod means the fan can be installed right against the ceiling. This is useful when you have a room with tight ceilings or low ceilings.

As mentioned, with the long blade span of 56 inches the fan has an excellent airflow capability – up to 4,738 CFM. This fan is designed for interior use and it can move a lot of air around inside of your home. The Antigua is useful in rooms up to 20 ft. x 20 ft.

 

How do I find my ceiling fan model?

Posted on by — No Comments ↓

Do you need to find the model number of your Hampton Bay fan? It is often a challenge, where you want to get help with your ceiling fan (even if it’s not a Hampton Bay fan) and you need to know the model. Having the model number or the model name will help you to replace a part, get troubleshooting help or sometimes warranty support. It’s a basic piece of information that’s needed in most situations where you need general help with your ceiling fan.

With that being said, there are a few different ways to find the model number for your fan. The first way is to locate the manual that came with your fan. If you can’t find the manual, we do have a page where you can take a look for your manual. However, this can become a catch 22 because to find the manual you need for your fan online, you of course need to know the model.

The other place you can find the model number is the outside of the box that the fan came in.

The final place to look is on the fan itself. If you have a fan that is mounted with a downrod (this is most fans), there would be an identifying sticker on the top of the motor housing. This means it is actually facing towards the ceiling. A mirror or a phone camera is good to capture the model number. You can then plug the model number into a major search engine, and you’ll find the name of that model as well from searching.

Here is a great video on the Hunter website that helps outline this step by step very well, in terms of determining the ceiling fan make or model:

Hampton Bay Redington IV Ceiling Fan

Posted on by — No Comments ↓

The Redington is a 52 inch ceiling fan with a brushed steel finish. It has five blades which are reversible. The fan comes with a remote, and a limited lifetime warranty (see Hampton Bay warranty details for more information as to what this covers). Be aware that the remote does not come with batteries, so you’ll have to purchase batteries for the remote before you’ll
be able to use it. The fan does come with a 4.5 inch down rod.

Hampton Bay Reddington IV Ceiling Fan
The Redington IV ceiling fan can actually be kind of difficult to find – not to mention, hard to find a picture of! If you’re looking to purchase this ceiling fan, you can find it on E-bay at the time of this writing for approximately $100 USD. However, you may want to read reviews first before purchasing. Home owners have complained that the light kit is extremely inefficient – so much so, that it cannot even light a small closet.

Does the Redington IV ceiling fan have good reviews?

At the time of this writing in 2022, the Redington does not have very good reviews when taking a look at the major manufacturers. On the Home Depot website, the Redington brushed steel
52 inch ceiling fan has both 1 star reviews – which is pretty bad. Although there are only two reviews of the fan on that website, neither is good. One user reports that the chandelier bulbs didn’t provide enough light in their office. The other review reports that the fan wasn’t too bad to install, but the light kit does not work very well at all – similar to the other user’s post about the lights being too dim. The site visitor goes on to say that it may be a better idea to purchase a Hunter fan, and does not recommend the Redington to other site visitors.

A third person answering a question says that the fan does not even do a good job of lighting up a small closet. Redington does have a bit of a history behind it. The first Redington fan was introduced in 1990. The style of that fan was very different from what you would find in the Redington IV. Originally, the model was designed as an “ultra-modern” fan which had an integrated light kit with four lights, and a useful remote control.

Where can I find the manual for my Hampton Bay Redington ceiling fan?

If looking for the manual for your Redington IV ceiling fan, you can find the downloadable PDF manual here. This is very useful if you’re looking for information direct from the manufacturer in terms of diagnosis, troubleshooting, or warranty information. The manual can also help if looking for a specific part for the Redington IV ceiling fan, or if you are searching for a parts list.

Where can I purchase the Hampton Bay Redington IV ceiling fan?

At the time of this writing, the Redington IV is not available at major retailers. If after reading reviews, you still want to purchase this fan, then you can purchase it on Ebay. It costs approximately $100 USD (before shipping costs, which may be extra). Just make sure you read the reviews from site visitors first!
