Can this fan also be used with an existing wall mount control?

So sorry, I can't answer. I am remodeling my new home and I have not installed fan yet.

I installed it with two simple rocker switches side-by-side: one for the fan and the other for the light. It's a pretty basic setup.

Hi Sherry,Thanks for the question. If you have a 3 wire setup in the single wall switch, then Yes. You'll have to purchase a dual control to operate the fan and light separately from a single switch. But don't forget Sherry, this fan comes with a remote control. We hope this helps. If you need anything further, please reach out to one of our awesome experts. Not only do they know everything, they're also literally sitting right next to their phones right now :)Hansen Wholesale1-800-201-1193

You may need to purchase a different base but the fan itself would be fine. The mount inside the base will allow for an angle but the cover may be difficult.

Our fan came with a remote controller that has a wall-mounted sleeve. That is our only complaint about the fan - but it is a very minor complaint

This would only work with a fan controlled by a Minka-Aire controller. Its is highly unlikely this is the unit you want.

i doubt it. i kinda did the same thing you're doing and tried to match it up with another fan. it was worth a shot, but didn't work and i sent it back. i went ahead and bought a brand new fan with remote

Unfortunately yes. Most fans I've used with built-in controllers only take one power source, and don't offer a way to bypass the built-in controller. The best way to find out for sure is to try and find the ceiling fan's manual online, and look to see if it has the capability to have the lights and fan on separate wires. The VRF01-1LZ is meant to be used where a ceiling fan is hard-wired to dual wall switches (one for the light, one for the fan motor).

I assume you are referring to a remote control receiver within the fan housing. Since this wall control is hard wired, it will have no effect on any type of fan remote control or its receiver contained within the fan housing. The remote should still work as before, after installing this wall control. Good luck to you!

Yes you certainly can. Keep in mind the pwm means it has 4 pins. Double check to make sure you get the correct adapter for your needs, you can also get an extension cable (non Y) for fan's as well, they vary in length from a few inches to several feet. Hope this helps.

yes, there is no reason why you cannot, the only moving part is the fan everything else is fixed in place with no movement

As it was installed at my house, I haven't been able to use just the wall switch unfortunately. The remote works well though and it's easy to switch from low to high, etc. It's a nice fan either way.

I bought this product as a remote controller with the wall mount holder. The installation was easy. You will need to set the code on the remote to match the code on the fan's receiver.

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

Yes, you can discard the WCS212 control unit and replace it with a standard wall switch. I have 2 Minka Aire fans, one of them is controlled with the WCS212 and a hand held remote; the other fan is controlled with a standard wall switch (which I keep always on) and the hand held remote

the control switch mounts to the wall in the included holder. the receiving unit usually fits under the fan mounting bracket, simply slides in and reconnect the wiring as per the instructions. basic home wiring knowledge is recommended.

Yes, you can. I just installed the fan this past Sunday, and I didn't use the remote. It will install like any normal fan with a light kit...ground, black, white, and blue wires.

This wall control is compatible with a lot of the Minka fans. You can contact us for specifics on fan compatibility with this wall control.

If you saw it down you could. I think it's a waste to do that unless your really having venting issues out of the pole. You could cut the vent down to an inch above the singles then mount the fan over it.
