How easy is it to install a remote control for this fan. Also how many speeds does this have-3 I assume.

I had my fan installed and the guy used the remote from my prior fan. He attached it somehow to the new fan and it works perfectly.

It has three speeds - I'd love to hear others respond about the remote control - I ended up just buying extensions for my pull chains, but a remote is intriguing! Love the fan - quiet. The lights a bit bright - a dimming remote would be my preference.

If it' the fan I think it is, we are using a wall control, not a remote. We do have one remote but it's for a Casablanca.

Fan works perfectly and 3 speeds is correct. I didn't install a remote control.

Easy, just make sure you follow instructions for setting the switch on remote for the type of bulbs you will be using. 3 speeds plus off.

look at your old remote. there should be a distinct number combination on a "dial". simply put that same number combination on your new remote to be able to control your fan. no electrician needed.

The one I have came with a remote control. I installed it where another fan had been with a single pole light switch.

No you cannot. I have my fan remote in front of me and there are 5 buttons on it total. 3 for speed, 1 for power, and 1 for the light (optional). You have to manually reverse the airflow via a switch that is on the fan itself. Hope this helps!

I've purchased 2 of these and both came with the 6-speed wall control along with 3 shades of "face plate" to choose from for it. If you want a remote control for the fan you'll need to purchase that separately, however.

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

Sorry, we had a friend install it and I don't know. What I do know is we do use the remote and LOVE this fan. Works great and quiet.

I think you are right that there is not a remote. I ordered 2 fans and the larger one-52"- did have a remote. We didn't want it and had adimmer installed to control the speed.

This unit has no remote control. My local big box store sells remotes for ceiling fans that control the light and multi-speed for the fan. I do not think there is room in the fan body to use the add-on kit.

No u need to use the remote to control the light and fan speed. It is the most easy way to install it. If u have two switches on the wall u don't need the remote. But most homes don't have that..

Hi SH, thanks for the question. The remote control is actually also a wall control. It has 3 speeds forward/backward, and a full range light dimmer. If you're referring to other wall controls that do not come with this ceiling fan, they may or may not work with this particular fan. We hope this helps! If you have any other questions, please feel free to reach out to one of our experts. They know everything, and they're literally sitting right next to their phones right now. :) Hansen Wholesale 1-800-201-1193

Sorry for the delay, but I needed to return home to examine the fan. Replace the wall on-off switch with a multi-position fan control switch. No remote is needed.

Yes, if I read your intention correctly. There are dip switches that pairs the remotes with the fans. When I installed my fan, the remote operated two fans, the new fan and another fan in a bedroom. Both operated the same way. I turned one light on, and the fan in another room would also turn on. Likewise with the fan and fan speeds. If two fans were in the same room, this could be good, and it sounds as if this is what you hope for, but wasn't what I wanted. The dip switches are too hard to get to to throw them to operate the fans independently with one remote. Btw, I changed one dip switch setting and my problem was fixed. You also may have two remotes in different areas of a room such as by two entryways, and both operate both fans.

Yes, you can control it with the remote or directly on the fan itself. Loves this fan! Very quiet and powerful!

This fan comes with a remote that has a wall mountable bracket. You can use it as a wall switch or remove it and use it remotely in the room. The remote controls light brightness levels as well as fan speed and on/off control. I just leave the builder installed wall switch in the "on" position and control it wth the remote.
