Just took a new Flex-A-Lite 12 inch Model 111 electric fan off the shelf in=
the garage to see how Flex A Lite handles the flan blade issue. It uses t=
he =E2=80=9Ccurved=E2=80=9D blade design. They have different model numbers=
for pusher and puller applications.=20
However there is a video on their web site that talks about removing and =
reversing the fan blade on a =E2=80=9Cstraight=E2=80=9D blade fan to conver=
t from pusher to puller. In the video it mentions, along with flipping the =
blade, that the polarity is switched also.

Looking at the photos, it seemed to me that the blades had a particular sha=
pe and that it was not symmetrical one side to the other. So I sort of assu=
med that reversing the direction would not be the whole solution.=20
Whilst I should like to be sure of this before I commit to a fan, it does s=
eem that the blades have that very particular design for a reason.
Of course, when/if I buy the fan, it may not be physically possible to reve=

Keep it coming!

I don't have experience with Kenlowe, but I assume (and realize there is da=
nger in that word) that these fans are all pretty much the same. That being=
said the direction, and therefore the flow of the fan can be reversed by s=
witching the wires. For best results you may also want to remove the fan bl=
ade assembly and turn it around on the shaft since most of the newer fans u=
se a =C2=A0backward curved blade design for optimum efficiency.

Hi Experts,
I have a 3000. It is Negative earth.
I have an opportunity to buy a Kenlowe, second hand, at a very good price. =
It is Positive earth.
I imagine that, if I reverse the wires, the fan will run the other way. Tha=
t=E2=80=99s all very well=E2=80=A6.goes round and round but will, in effect=
, be pulling the air rather than pushing. Which is useless.
Is there a solution? Apart from not buying it!
