does this have a mechanical switch or an electronic switch? i.e. if the power goes out and then comes back on, will the fan come back on?

P.S. It is very loud and powerful. I kept it for den but would not buy it if I were you unless that wouldn't bother you. I would stick with the ones from Kmart or Walmart, the ones you might see them set up working and easily returned.

It will go back on if plugged into a direct power source. it's a mechanical switch. We had it running all day long to circulate air in SW bedroom.

I returned that fan as soon as I got it. It wasn't what I expected at all. Sorry, I know nothing about the switch. It was a long time ago, but if I recall, it was most likely an electronic switch. It was not the best quality fan, somewhat bigger and not very powerful, if I am remembering correctly.

We suffer a lot with power outages here in Joppa, MD during the summer when the grid is "taxed". YES, the fan does come back on at the fan speed setting when the power returns.

It is a mechanical switch, so the fan will come back on when power is restored.

If your power source is connected to only one switch the fixture must be wired so the fan and light are wired togther. Fan and light will power on/off togther.

I was looking back and the fan that you are talking about we have a regular switch that you would turn on and off lights. That switch is very simple to change. Two wires, black wires. the hot side of the power. The white wire will not be on that switch. Make sure the power supply is off when making this repair.

Unfortunately it will just power it down and you have to use remote or turn the fan back on.. everything that was on has to be turned back on, so No it will not work, sorry.

Yes, it has three settings both in, both out and one in/one out It also has three speed settings which are electronic, so it starts on low when turned on. The speed settings are independent from the fan direction

The light switch turns on/off the fan's light only. It is not a dimmer switch.

yes it has a 3 speed switch built into it that also can turn off without upluging or i have mine hooked up to a timer to come on and off at certain times. Good luck, great powerful fan.

The condenser turns off when the desired level is reached, but not the fan - it runs continuously. Can't say what happens after a power outage - haven't experienced one yet.

Yes, has off and on switch plus button to allow fan to stay stationary or to ossoliate.

there is a switch that allows it to reverse direction, but it is on the fan itself.

The fan comes with a 5 speed electronic wall switch in the box. The switch is dsigned to go with this fan.

It has a mechanical on off switch. I use mine with an external sous vide controller and have had very good results.

Don't know the technical answer but I researched it at the time and it worked as the replacement in my Old Jacksonville ceiling fan. No off switch.

Not sure, there is a switch on the fan. We bypassed the remotes. We still have the remote and looked at it and there does not appear to be a switch, I would dig further. Sorry!

No, just the on and off and there is a time...You control oscillating by the up and down switch at the top back of the fan.and by the way, the fan didn't last very long -- don't get it.

it doesn't have an on off switch, it's on when you plug it in so I would say it's on when the power comes back on

Yes it does... it has a thermostat knob that causes it to shutoff when the desired temperature is reached. If the temperature goes below a threshold, the fan does come back on again. The other knob controls off/fan/low heat/high heat. In addition, there is an overheat shutoff.
