Can I operate this fan and the light both with wall switches?

Yes, you can operate the fan and the light with wall switches. The Owners Manual provides installation instructions for both single and dual switches.

First, I would ask my electrician. We have ours to control a fan, heating and light unit. The switch operates heat, bent and light in that order. It's easy enough to turn both on and off at the same time.

This fan can be turned on or off with the remote or wall switch. You cannot control the dimmer or speed from the wall switch.

Hello! You can purchase a wall switch to operate the fan separately, SW90W, SW46W, SW46LA or SW90LA. If there is anything else we can help with, please let us know! Better Living Store

I would not consider easy but possible. I had a three way switch without separate fan switch. When I installed the Panasonic unit I installed switch for light, fan, and nightlight. You are ahead of the game with fan switch so not too bad. Definitely took some time sketching wiring diagram. This unit is very flexible and will work for this purpose.

Short answers is no. If you don't have a seperate switch in the same location that controls the fan then you'll need an electrician to run an additional wire from rhe fan to the switch box.

I don't see why not. Just make sure you use a 4 wire connection to run the fan and light separately from the same single switch(es). Or, if you are using separate individual switches then I guess you'd be alright as well wiring each.

Yes. This will give you ONE switch that will turn on the fan and the light at the same time. When you turn off the light, the fan will continue to run for a set period of time. You can adjust the length of time the fan runs after the light is turned off.

It is a WALL switch for the light and fan. You can control the fan from either a remote or the wall.

Micah, The light can also be hooked up with a wall switch. In fact, that is how we have our Minka Aire (4) fans set up so the light can work with the remote and wall switch. Great fans!

This fan does not come with a switch. If you have a 3 conductor romex cable run to the fan, then you can have separate switches for fan and light.

Yes. I leave the wall switch in the on position and use the remote to control the light and fan.

I had this fan installed a few weeks ago. I can operate with the remote and the wall switch. Your electrician can set that up for you. I will say that I love using the remote. It has several speed settings and you can change the direction with it. I have received many compliments on this one; it looks amazing!!!

Yes, you would need to connect the power from the fan to the light. Recommend you get a license electrician to do the wiring.

We are building a house and bought this fan to install in the kitchen and we wired for the fan to be turned off and on via a switch on the wall, so I'm thinking you can do this, but you will have to have it wired to do so. Hope this helps!!

Don't believe you can. The inner wiring is for two independent fixtures or a fan/light combo. The fan side has set stops in the slider for variable speeds. The other side is traditional slider to dim the light. The respective switch for each turns it off and on.

The fan offers a few ways to wire the light and fan. You can wire so that the wall switch turns on the fan AND light, then you use the two chains to select the light, the fan, or both. Another way to wire is use the wall switch to turn light on and off, then use the chain to turn on the fan when you need it. I only had one switch so I chose to wire the first way. Wiring instructions for the options I mentioned are included in the documentation.
