Emerson Ceiling Fans


Emerson has been making quality fans since the late 1800s and continues to make quality fans today.

 

 

Emerson fans made through the 1950s are considered antiques and use motor designs as such. They require frequent oiling and are similar in design to pre-2000 Hunter Originals. These fans are very heavy and powerful, some are also very valuable.

Emerson fans made in the 70s and 80s use K63 and K55 motors. These are quality motors, and were used in many other brands of fans including Casablanca. K63 motors were older and generated a lot of heat and therefore may require bearing replacement. Contact ceilingfanrepair@yahoo.com for more details.

As with all older fans, with age and use the bearings may become dry or dirty and require oiling or replacement, see "oiling" section. Early 80s models had plastic blades and housings, the motors were still quality, but the plastic blades would become out of balance. There is no repair for this. Some fans in the 80s were sold with a close mount kit that was recalled, see "ceiling fan recalls".

 

Early 90s-present Emersons may use a rubber flywheel that may require replacement.
