Just want to check this will work for me: Installed light/ceiling fan with separate pull chains for each in ceiling. Single-pole switch at wall. Yes?

This is how I use it, but you'll need 14/3 wire from the switch to the fan to do this. (Usually black + red "hot", white neutral , and bare copper ground). Most switches are only wired with 14/2 wire which only has one hot (no red)

Yes a single pole switch will work.The wall switch will send the power to the the light and fan, the pull chains will turn the light and fan on as well as control the fan speed.If you choose to set the pull chains to the on positions, then you can turn the light and fan on and off using the wall switch.With you use this switch you will need 14/3 wire to control the fan and light separately .

If you only have one switch leg going from the switch to the fan, you probably don't want to use this switch. If you have two switch legs, it will work.

I don't know. My fan and light like this is controlled by a wall switch and pull cord. I switch it on at the wall, and then control the light and fan speed by the 2 pull cords.

Yes it is wired to add a light kit. If you are looking to control the fan and the light separately from a wall control you may need to check the electric wires to the fan itself in order to get the discrete operation. Consult an electrician to see if you can use existing wiring to discretely control both. Otherwise you can hang the fan and light kit and operate the light with the chain at the light kit.

The fan offers a few ways to wire the light and fan. You can wire so that the wall switch turns on the fan AND light, then you use the two chains to select the light, the fan, or both. Another way to wire is use the wall switch to turn light on and off, then use the chain to turn on the fan when you need it. I only had one switch so I chose to wire the first way. Wiring instructions for the options I mentioned are included in the documentation.

I have it on the same circut as the wall plug. I think you would have to run seperate wire for the switches to lights or whatever, but it sits nicely next to the plugs. common cover for them. Sounds like you have two switches now so this should work.

You can do either. Wall switch has to be on for remote to work. I suggest a dimmer wall switch also for fan and light. Awesome looking fan and very quiet.

No. The humidistat is "just a switch." Activated by humidity rather than your finger. So if you install it where the single switch is now, it will "work" but the light and fan will BOTH come on when the room steams up and go off when the air dries out. You would have to pull a second set of wires to switch the fan and light independently.

If your ceiling fan operates off of a light switch, then it should work perfectly.

I did not have to install the provided wall switch. You can just install and use the existing on/off switch for the fan/light you have now, but you won't be able to dim/change speed etc. It will just be stuck on what ever it is at when you install. I purchased the remote separately and it works right out of the box with the fans, so you can just use your existing switch, buy the remote and then you can change all the functions.

Why would it not? If I wired mine correctly it would have run from the wall switch and not have to pull the chain for fan and light.

there is a pull chain for both fan and light, there is no light control by switch

I use the pull chain to change speed but have a wall switch for on/off maybe a reostat like a dimmer switch, I would check with Manufacturer to make sure the lower voltage doesn't damage fan motor

I am not an electrician, so take that into account. To be separate, I believe you need to have an existing light/fan switch and wires installed in your bathroom. Otherwise, you'll need to handy electrical wiring to install a new dual switch with one for your light and one for the fan. I simply replaced an existing fan which had it's own switch. All the best.

Yes, there are two separate slider switches on the wall panel, one for the light and one for the fan. Keep in mind that you will need 4 wires from the switch to the ceiling fan for this to work instead of the standard 3 wires.

No. The fan will only run with the light switch is on. You need to rewire if you want it them to run independently.

I replaced ceiling light with ceiling fan with light. My electrician installed this wall control to replace the original light switch perfectly as it was designed for.
