I had 3 Harbour Breeze "Hatteras" outdoor ceiling fans (purchased at Lowes) installed on my covered porch 3 years ago. I have had to replace 15 blades altogether on 2 of those 3 fans. And the motor housing of at least one of the fans is completely rusty. I seems rather ironic that with fans named "Hatteras" that I have this much trouble with them and I don't even live on the ocean.
