Can I slow the fan more with a variable speed switch

These fans have A/C motors with multiple windings designed to operate at preset voltages. That's why there is the switch. You can damage the fan, or overheat the "dimmer", the latter which could result in a fire. Don't do it!

You'd have to use a control made for motors like for a ceiling fan. You couldn't use a dimmer switch like you use for a light switch.

I use the pull chain to change speed but have a wall switch for on/off maybe a reostat like a dimmer switch, I would check with Manufacturer to make sure the lower voltage doesn't damage fan motor

I'm not aware of it adjusting the fan speed automatically. There may be some type of switch to set it to do that and I'm just not aware of it. I've just had no desire for it to adjust the fan speed automatically.

If you are talking about the original switch (don't know the part number), yes. And, yes, there's an "off" position, in addition to a rheostat to vary fan speed (in the application in which I personally am using the part).

Yes you can switch between the fan on all the time and being automatic on the web. You have absolute control over any function on the web. Dave Chandler

No you cannot. I have my fan remote in front of me and there are 5 buttons on it total. 3 for speed, 1 for power, and 1 for the light (optional). You have to manually reverse the airflow via a switch that is on the fan itself. Hope this helps!

I may have a variable speed fan, but I only run it at one speed, with a regular wall switch to an outlet.

yes. a timer can be used. typically, the timer would be used to control just the fan motor if you have separate switching for light, but I suppose you could time out both at same time if a light is included.

No, this is a fan switch only. I'd look for a slider switch. This one has to be played with to get the setting. Good luck!

There are 5 settings on the controller included with the fan. Setting 5 is the slowest and it is pretty slow.

Actually, I can use a wall-switch (for previous fan) to turn this fan on and off from a pre-set speed. Works great.

Sorry, I'm not a technical person, but my electrical guy installed that for me to replace one I had there that did not work very well. The light switch is separate from it. For the ceiling fan, you set it for whatever speed you want each time. Off, high, medium or low. You can adjust it to any speed you want. Hope that helps.

Yes, on the top of the fan there is a pull switch. Up for non- oscillating and down to oscillate.

Any electric fan can be outfitted with a variable speed switch/dimmer, as long as the switch/dimmer has the specs to cover the fans wattage. so the answer is yes, but make sure the switch you get can handle the fanns wattage. They make speed controllers for some shop power tools,. this fan draws less juice than most power tools, so that would be a good, likely safe place to aim (but still check).But ultimately this one comes with a speed control built in,. so,.. unless your like me and installed it out of arms reach and you want to put in a remote dimmer,.. the question is moot.

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."

You have to select which fan speed you want to run. It does not automatically adjust the fan speed.

This is the quietest fan I have ever used. I use it for cooling my Onkyo Home Theater receiver, which runs very warm. I just used a wall wart power supply to power it and haven't tried any speed control. I would think you can vary the speed by using a variable output DC power supply.

I believe there is a switch on top of fan for that function. Might want to confirm with manufacture.
