Hi Everyone, back to my original question about window fans and additional ones about ceiling fans. Sorry to be so ignorant of things here, but I'm a home handy woman and in the US, the old guys (and girls) at Home Depot and Lowes help with my projects. The hardware stores here probably could help too but my Spanish is still very limited. So here are my questions.
Back to window fans. I've seen those metal extraction-type fans (probably designed for bathrooms?). Do you think I could use that in a small window in my highest room as a sort of window fan?
Regarding ceiling fans, I have those typical three blade metal fans with the dome light in four rooms. I just bought the condo but the fans have some rust/peeling paint on the blades. Do they sell replacement blades and/or do you think I could sand them down and repaint with anticorrosive and then a sort of brass-like color paint like I've seen on outdoor wrought iron gates, etc? The fans work fine, just are ugly and obviously will eventually rust throught if not maintained. And second question...have you seen any sort of other fan light kits that would fit these standard fans? The brand is KOK....
Thanks for your input.
Judy
