These fans are located in a cafe at a dental building. Each Hugger is controlled by a Casablanca 3-speed slide wall control, and Hampton Bay Altura is controlled by a 3-speed Lutron Rotary wall control. Altura came with a remote which is not used. The huggers have been running on high for like 24/7 all year around, at least I never see them off or at different speeds (except for this video). So now, the capacitors are bad which makes them spin slow and not blow very much air. I thought the chains were on medium when I first saw them, but when I told an employee about it, he checked and the chains were on high. Hampton Bay Altura spins slow but blows good amount of air. It spins faster on reverse, because the blades aren't really shaped to be on a reversible motor. So yeah, it'll spin faster on reverse, but it won't move as much air. If anyone can identify the huggers, please tell me and I'll change the title if it turns out to be correct. All 3 fans are shown on all 3 speeds.
