Do I need a separate switch for this, or can I turn it on and off within the unit itself?

There isn't a switch included on the fan. You can purchase a specific rheostat type switch or as I did just use a standard on/off switch.

not positive but we have a separate switch for it. So no, it does not come with a switch or pull attached to the unit.

You need a separate switch. Fan has a small junction box with knockouts for wiring connection.

No there is no switch. You have to plug it in and it automatically turns on. To turn it off you have to unplug it.

It doesn't have a on off switch as it's on all the time. You could install an in line switch.

There is a separate branch circuit in the unit so that you can wire it to its own switch. If you install it as it comes, then the fan will go on with the light. There is a wiring diagram in the package that tells you how to wire it. Good luck!

I didn't see a switch on it. Covering the sensor with tape should be simple to do. Can't remember if there is a wire you could disconnect on this one. Usually there is. - J.M.

It can be turned on independently. We have a double switch with one controlling the light and one controlling the fan

Ours is installed with separate wall switches. One controls light, one controls fan. I can turn each on independently of the other. Perfect. Worked out great. Don't really use remote or mess with the controls on fan itself.

Yes. There is a small adaptor that plugs into an AC outlet, and a wire from there plugs into the unit. There is no on-off switch. The unit turns on when plugged in, and turns off when unplugged.

The unit has a manual power switch. I have not allowed it to remain powered on to see if the unit powers down on its own, but I'm going to say it does not given the seemingly hard-wired manual switch.- Stephen

There is no on/off switch. To do so requires plugging it into or out of the outlet.

no, you need a hvl switch which has 3 toggle switch. use a 12/4 tray cable to wire the unit.

I don't think so, I have it installed to be turned on/off using the switch at the door.

Yes, ours is installed to a double switch on the wall, and they operate independently. As well, there are two pull chains on the fan itself, so if you wire it directly, you can still operate the functions independently from the pull chains.

Agree with all previous statements. Yes you can control each feature separately whether via wall switch or via pull cords on unit

Yes both separate wiring for wall switch or manually from pull cords on fan

No. Unit will turn on automatically with an audio signal or with a remote 12 vdc trigger. You can set it to turn itself off after 1 hr. or several other choices.
