I have a Sears variable speed whole house fan. There aren't any decora style fan controls for WHFs. Would this work?

Yes, as long as your fan is a 2 speed fan to begin with it's a generic speed switch. You can also wire it through a timer too.

If your Sears fan is dual speed (that is, you can ONLY toggle between high, low, and off) then it likely will work. If your fan is variable speed (that is it can be set for a range of speeds from low through medium to high) then no, this switch will not work.

zzzzzz.... use your search engine. there are other fan controllers that allow PWM control but you will have to pay for the price

it will work as a off and on power control, but not as a variable step controler such as needed for a multi speed device with an amendum such as a varible intensity light. if it is a single speed fan, with a single intensity llight that is controlled by a " pull chain " switch wired into the fans power connection, you are probably " O.K."

I used mine to interface to a zone controller so that would not be available as an option. I did not see any options on the programming of the stat. to control speed any way. My best guess from not seeing that option is that the thermostat would not control the speed but cant say for sure, I am not sure if your air handler has any sensors in it to detect if it needs to change fan speeds without a signal to do so from the thermostat, you could check on what actually controls the speed of the fan your equipment. This thermostat has tons of programming options and is the very best I have ever had or seen, but again I did not see programming options for speed control.

Not sure what the rating is but if you have a two speed whole house fan this will work. You might have to play around with getting the wiring right as mine had no diagram. Replaced old toggle/chain switch.

The answer is, I don't know. This control performs differently with different tools, appliances, etc. It must depend on the type of inner electrical control of each tool, appliance, etc. I bought one to control the speed of a fan but it did not perform, it was either on or off even in the variable mode. I would go to the local electrical parts store and ask some questions before ordering.

You can use a universal remote. I took the remotes out of my old fans ( different brand ) and put them in these fans. Works better than the old ones.

Check with the manufacturer on specs. This is a dimmer switch and my understanding is they are not suitable for appliance control. There are other z-wave on/off switches or recepticals that will control fans or other appliances to on or off.

Would the Westinghouse 7787300 Ceiling Fan and Light Control work with this fan?

Yes. This will work. Not perfectly but what does? I modified mine to control the fan speed and heating and it works really well, but it works without any modification. Similar to the Poppery II.

If you want to use a variable switch, just set the fan on High and then use your switch to control speeds.

I purchased the W84 but found out it was my fan assembly, not the switch. My electrician said they will both work.

Hunter has a wall switch designed for that reason. If you call them and give your fan model number they will give you all of the informationyou need.

What you have in your ceiling fan is a receiver; the transmitter is in the remote control, just like in the one you use for your TV. I have never even seen a Sears remote control kit so couldn't say if the Hampton Bay remote is compatible with it; at the very least you will need to know the code that is set on the receiver and at that point, it's just as easy to install the HB receiver in the fan. I'm curious as to why you need a new remote control...did you lose it or has it stopped working?

NO. I have tried both brush-style and brushless compatible speed controllers with this fan and neither work.

Load specs on the timer are 15A general purpose (incandescent, CFL, halogen, etc lights), 1000W tungsten lights, 1/4 hp motor, 1000 VA ballast (florescent lights). So as long as your whole house fan is ¼ horsepower or below, you shouldn't have any trouble. If the fan is larger than this, the timer could be used to trigger a 120V coil on a relay rated for your fan and then the fan power would be switched by the relay with this timer in control.

Yes, I have a similar location with two Hunter outdoor fans. I used Hunter Fan Company Hunter Fan Company 27189 Two wire fan/light wall control for Hunter Original fans (3 speeds), it works very well. I included a light with my porch fans.
