Hi Everyone,
I really want a Fedders "Circle of Air" / "Weather Wheel" VINTAGE Window Air Conditioner, as they are called. They have a Single Round Large Rotating Vent on the front Panel. They were made from the Late 50's to the Early/Mid 70's. These are my most favorite.
I will however be interested in other Vintage Models with Circular Vents, such as the GE's and Amana's.
I will entertain any "cool" Vintage Air Conditioners NO Newer than theEarly 70's. I prefer 50's to Early 60's, actually, and I definitely prefer the Cream Colors / Off White, as opposed to Wood Grain, but will look at anything that Fits the Age Requirement.
Thanks for keeping an Eye out for me. I need them, in keeping with all my furnishings.
Best Washes,
Louis |

But I had to sell a bunch of stuff and my house in 2005, Broyhill Furniture laid me off, and it put me in a bind....So, until I met Donald and moved to Mocksville I lived in an apartment. |

That sucks man. But glad you are in a good situation now.
Please keep an eye out for them in your travels. I've wanted one since I can remember. An older cousin had one from the late 50's and it was still a daily driver till the house sold in the 90's. It seems I keep missing them....So close, yet so far :( Hope all is well :) |

Thanks for keeping an eye out for me. I have a unit or two that look like that, and it does suit the bill. But, I really want a true Vintage A/C with circular vent(s), Esp. a Fedders. I'll actually be picking up an AirTemp Window unit Sat Morning, that looks similar to that M/W, but has a Door over the Control Panel.
BUT don't give up looking for me. You seem to find them better than I can.
BTW / I still need to come down and get that Kenmore from you. Just let me know when is good for you. Maybe a thrifting run to boot?
Thanks for the tip on the Hassock fan. I do have a few already.
Talk soon.

That would be AWESOME. I'd love to see a pic? Just curious.....How many BTUs? My friend suggests AMTRAK Freight as a possible way to ship. I'll cross that bridge when I get there :) What stinks is there is an in the wall Weather Wheel 2 mins from my house in an apartment that just sold. It works. I tried it during the estate sale. They don't use it and won't sell it. UGGH / LOL. They stuck a small unit in the window next to it. Thanks again, and keep me posted. Louis |

Here it is. I'm not sure of the BTU's on it. It is a 110 unit though.

Does anyone here still have a Fedders weather wheel lurking around that they would be willing to part with. I'm looking for one with the gold screen.
Thanks, Sarah
