Amazon options suggestions includes a Lutron controller which appears fully variable, i.e., not 4 or 5 distinct speeds. Will that work with this fan?

Yes it comes with a speed control switch. But I highly recommend the wireless one in the suggestion area

Hi, There is a 4new combination switch in the brain portion at the ceiling fan. The switch combination must be the same as that under the remote back cover. Open remote and you'll see the switch I'm speaking of. Well you will see the same switch on the controller. Set them sp each of the 4 switch positions are identicle and it will work. Thanks for asking. If that doesn't work, try another battery. CHARLES

keep in mind you can only use the actual wattage used as a minimum if you are using LED bulbs, yes 3 or 4 13.5 watt LED will satisfy the minimum of 40 watts for LED bulbs, but if the dimmer does not state it is for LED use it will on occasion when used at an established lower level not strike [or light] and must be taken to zero then moved up to the established lower leve.l This is common in any dimmer not LED rated.Lutron assured me they will have a four speed fan control with Led capability out soon. The four speed will be for the serenity mode on some hunter fans.

The controller only controls the power input to the fan. It does not shut fans completely off at the lowest setting, so even if it did control LED power it would never be "off" only dimmer than full power.

The fan control is hard wired to the fan and only operate one fan. If you have a wireless controller you just have to change the dim switches to a different sequence

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

The remote did not work for some reason. I the kit for the Lutron stack switch came with the switch and an internal part for the fan. Once the internal part was installed the fan worked off the wall switch...but no reverse...so make sure you have the fan going in the correct direction before install.

Yes, remote controller dims and controls fan 4 speed settings one of which is off.

I asked LEDwholesalers the same question RocPopy, This is there response."Hello:Sorry, our fans are unlikely to work with fan speed controllers.Regards,LEDwholesalers"That should clear things up for everyone.

well does your fan have a chain control for your light and fan speed? if it does this will not work. I you have one that is remote controlled all ready this will work for you. Now you will have to install the module with this remote. And the answer to your question, there are universal remotes out there, but if you don't know the make and model of your module, they will not work. You basically have to install the complete matching set. I hope this answer's your question? Tedd

I do not have an answer. An electrician who installed the light and fan provided information regarding the controller to be used.

No, it can only control a fan and a light. Two different devices electrically speaking in how they treat the loads. You need a dual dimmer such as Lutron MA-L3L3-WH Maestro 300 Watt Single Pole Dual Dimmer, White . Careful you understand that the combined loads for the two fixtures your dimming does not exceed 300 watts. If you try to dim 300 Watts on each it will overheat a burn out. Think of it as two 150 Watt dimmers in one device and you will be safe.

A manual pull chain is the correct fan for this device. One key consideration is you will need a fan that has no light attached or wiring that allows for separate switches for the fan / light. You would use this switch for the fan only. I use the variable speed all the time especially in the winter I set it to low to push circulate the heat back down as I have a very high ceiling.

No it is just an on/off switch. But you can control the speed by buying an speed control rheostat. That is what I did. It costs $50 and amazon has the unit the fan maker recommends.

Not sure....I don't like using variable on fan motors...it tends to give them a short life span....the two speeds are adequate, however I always have it set to high speed.

I use a Lutron remote and fan control module - works great. Did not use the built in system because I also wanted wall controls in addition to the remote. With this I can control fan (multi-speed) and light (including dimming) separately - from the remote and from the wall.

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.
