Is there a recommended timer wall switch? How can you choose between the sensor mode and full speed mode?

I love this fan, it is VERY quiet, it was running and no one knew. I installed it with only a sensor not a switch and it works great.

Don't need a timer switch. It's based on turning the power on at the switch. It toggles between sensor and full speed mode. If you set it to full speed mode and want sensor mode, just turn the power off and them back on. Works great for us.

it won't work with a timer. The reason is that you switch fan modes by turning the wall switch on then off then on. The default mode when you turn it on is the humidity mode. The humidity sensor mode is great because it will run variable speeds until the humidity is below 50-60%. The fan is very quiet so I have no problem just leaving it on full for hours. it also uses very little power so quite efficient.

Not sure what timer you are referring to. There is a simple ON setting that bypasses the light sensor.

Full switch position is the same as plugging the router into a wall outlet there is no speed control. Yes you can use it as on off/on switch for the router table with speed control on the variable speed router but you use the speed dial on the router to control the speed.

I am sure the timer allows you to manually override the timed settings. (Most timers do allow this.) The On/Off buttons provide this capability.

nope, no timer function. you'd have to manually change its mode each night.

Lorraine there is a "timer" feature but this is for the entire unit. I do not believe you can program a specific feature on this unit...I like mine a full throttle as I love that "clean" smell. it can be over-powering in smaller rooms for some. a client has one in her office which is very tiny. I love the smell but others hate it and find it too strong. this is my second unit for my personal home...I can only tell the difference when I have been gone all day and then come home-if the windows have not been open to let fresh air in... so...yes the ozone can be turned on/off manually and no it does not have a specific feature just for specific categories (to my knowledge)

I put mine on the side of the house so that the sensor would have input. check the instructions, you may be able to use it on timer only. DEL

I really couldn't say for sure but I have had a lot of trouble with the timers I have purchased. This particular model and brand has worked for one Christmas season for me, so time will tell when the next season rolls around. The best sensor timer I have is much more expensive than this style and has lasted for several years. If I could find another one like it I would purchase it.

I have (2) of these king air timers. They are much better than humidity sensors, as humidity varies so much in new england.I have (1) wired for both: fan & lights on/off together. ie 1 gang box needed.I have the other (1) wired for fan only. ie 2 gang box needed.:)

I'm certain three is but I'm unaware of the limitation. Wouldn't a digital timer switch be a better option?

You can use your own timer, the one that comes from the company isn't necessary. I replaced my timer with a much more compact model that can be hidden from view better. :D

It has been a while since I installed it but I saw nothing to disable the on/off controls. It would not work with a timer switch. I just leave it in full nearly all the time. I had to put a note on the wall to educate guests on how to use it. I still like it and would do it again. It is so quiet leaving it on is no big deal.

Yup that's what I have mine on. I bought a cheap timer (2 pack Stanley) from Amazon and it works perfectly. I use the timer function all the time and then turn timer off when I want to operate it manually

although I am using it for a whole house fan. It is a normal "timer" wall switch and can't see any reason it would not work for both. Hope it helps since I can't give you a definite.

You can wire this Ecoswitch as the first device from the power source as it acts as a switch only (it doesn't care what is after it as long as you keep within the amperage rating of the Ecoswitch), then take your leads from the Ecoswitch to a dimmer THEN go to your light(s). This will then give you both benefits of the programmable timer and a dimmer. Just don't go from the dimmer to the Ecoswitch! If your box is not at least 4x4 for two devices, then you will have to upgrade the wall box.

There is not a traditional timer outside the light sensor system. Since I decided to mount my unit inside, I ended up just pluging it in a standard $10 lamp timer which I can set how I want. I just keep the unit pack in the on position.

My husband installed it and I remember him complaining about the sensor being only controlled by sunlight (dawn to dusk). So we ended up putting a programmable timer in the series and plugged that into the outlet. Involves some wiring but simple enough.
