Question from RMD
We recently purchased a new Hunter ceiling fan. Upon opening the box and removing the parts, a strong chemical type odor filled the bedroom. Are these toxic fumes? Should we return the fan or let it air out in a well ventilated room before installation?
This product was made in China.
Thank you for your help.

I would probably air it outdoors for a day or two and if the odor didn’t go away, I would return it. I’ve purchased Hunter ceiling fans and they had no odor, so perhaps this one is defective.
