Can I easily add a remote control to this fan? My last fan, I added a universal control but then could not turn it on/off with the wall switch.

Sorry...I don't know if this fan would work with a remote, or not. They are just basic fans, so it is likely they do not.

No, if you're asking about the hand held remote. Nothing is visible on the fan, we use only the remote and do not have a wall switch. We have 3speeds for the fan & dimming feature for the light. Hope this helps.

Love this fan, but it didn't come with a remote control...we have it wired with wall switch, and we manually change the speed with the pull chains provided.

Hi caseyo, thanks for the question. Yes, you can use a remote with this fan. We recommend Control Model No: 99019. It must be purchased separately, and usually runs around $65 or so. As for your second question, lights can be added to this fan. We hope this helps, if you need anything further please reach out to one of our awesome experts. Not only do they know everything, but they're literally sitting right next to their phones right now :) Hansen Wholesale 1-800-201-1193

It seems to me the remote is the only way to control the fan and the light. Everything went well so far except for an accident a few days ago. My son played with the remote for a while and then somehow I couldn't turn off the fan. After half an hour struggle, no solution could be found on the specification. In despair, I had to shut down the electricity of the house, then turned it on. And the remote came to life again after that. I did wish it'd come with a standard wall switch as a backup.

This model does not come with a remote. You could add a remote with a kit like this: http://www.amazon.com/Universal-Thermostatic-Ceiling-Control-Conversion/dp/B001RJ8X0M/ref=sr_1_2?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1394194613&sr=1-2&keywords=celing+fan+remote

No, I don't have a remote. I use a wall switch and pull cords for light and fan.

I never attempted to instal a remote control on this fan. Sorry can not help you.

you have to have the wall switch on for the lights and fan to work. Use remote to turn off and on or the wall switch to turn off. Love my fan.

Sorry, I don't know. We don't have a remote, we just pull the switch for the fan & the light. ( pull switches are more heavy duty than on older fans)

I bought this fan to replace one that was hit by lightning because it did have remote control which has a battery pack that makes the remote work. To answer your question, it is my understanding that it does not have such "batterpack and is not able to support a remote without that part being added to fan assembly. So No, unless you want the added expense and installation of that part. It is a pull string operation that can be turned on and off with a wall switch. Hope that helps!

I set mine up with wall controls (1 gang "switch" but with separate fan and light dimmer settings, with its own remote and control system that replaces the one that came with this unit - from Lutron). I did not want to have just the remote, or a single control/switch on the wall. If you're wiring this up new, consider using 12-3 wire (versus 12-2) - the extra "line" (2 hots, 1 neutral, 1 ground) allows you more flexibility with fan/light fixtures for separate controls "at the switch." Incidentally I've had these units a little while now and both are working just fine.

I had this fan installed a few weeks ago. I can operate with the remote and the wall switch. Your electrician can set that up for you. I will say that I love using the remote. It has several speed settings and you can change the direction with it. I have received many compliments on this one; it looks amazing!!!

Nope! But there are instructions on how to install a remote control. Not worth it to me to have the remote, but the fan looks great!

Hi Giffsmom,Thanks for the question. This fan does not come with a remote control, but you do have the option of purchasing one separately. The only compatible one with this, which is a hand-held remote is model number: 99118 Aside from that, there are a few wall switches that are also compatible. Consider model number 27182 and 27183. We hope this helps. If you have any other questions, or would like to place an order, please reach out to one of our awesome experts.

I did not install a remote control. The manual states that "Some fan motors are sensitive to signals from solid-state variable speed controls. If you have installed this type of control, choose and install another type of control" I would expect the fan to work well with a non solid-state control.

Julia - that's a great question. We have just recently installed our fan (which I LOVE, by the way), and do not have it hooked up to a remote control. However, we did look at Universal Remote Controls at Home Depot with the thought in mind that some day we might want one. If you could obtain the specifics on this type of remote control and contact a "brick-and-mortar" establishment that sells these fans (like Lamps Plus) they might be able to answer your question. Just a thought!
