I have a separate wall switch for the fan and light. Will this fan wire to both switches?

Yes, that is the set up I have. And I will add that I LOVE this fan! I have had it for a year now and still happy.

That is the way mine is set up - and I also love my fan both the look and feel (the only fault I have with it is the light is on the soft side)

It should, however, I wonder if what you are trying to say is that if the same switch turn the fan and the light at the same time, or if you have two switches one for the light and the other for the fan? Mine, I have it installed with one switch and turns both the light and the fan, however since I also have recessed lights in this room, I have decided to leave the lights of the fan off and only use the fan. Hope this helps you.

Yes, as I said in my review, I have both the fan and the light wired to separate wall switches. Actually the fan is wired to a 3-speed selector knob, but you could use a slider switch as well.The light fixture says 40 watt max, so 60 watt bulbs probably wouldn't be a good idea. However, you can purchase CFL bulbs which are 60 watt equivalent but only use <20 watts.

It has a "night light" feature that is on a different switch but for the main light, no it is tied to the use of the fan and there is no separate set of wires to break that function out from what I recall of the installation.

If you take out your old switch and the fan is a three speed 4 wire fan then this will work. Be sure to mark which wire goes with each letter when you remove the old switch. I had to switch them around until it worked.

The fan and the light can be controlled separately. They can be either both on, both off, or one or the other on. I have the light wired into the room light switch, whereas the fan is controlled by a pull-chain switch. These fans are very versatile for different wiring arrangements, either by a competent do-it-yourselfer or an electrician.

Yes, I have mine wired for one light switch. The fan is controlled by the remote.

Hi. My husband installed this, and we have it on two switches - one for the fan and one for the light. He could have put in three switches with one for the night light but we thought that was overkill :) So I am pretty sure you can wire all 3 things to one switch or do them individually, etc. So yes the fan light can be on its own switch or share. Hope that helps.

I don't think so. The light that is controlled by the switch is the light associated with a fan and wired into that and not separate light

No, it does not. You have to install a switch (where your light switch is) and you can control the fan and light separately.

No, you will need a separate switch to control the light function. In one of my bathrooms I have a light built into the fan and I have a separate switch to control the light along side this fan control. This is a very good fan control switch and I think you will like the features and functionality. The only issue that some don't like is the green LEDs that are illuminated (one is always on. if the unit is off, the main buttonLED is on and the last default time LED is also on. If the unit is on then the button time that is selected is on. Some are concern about this at night, but it's kind of a night light for me. I hope this helps.

As long as you have separate light and fan switches on the wall with corresponding wires at the fan mounting location -- you are good. That means you have a white, black and (usually) a red wire at the fan plus the ground wire.

Yes. This will give you ONE switch that will turn on the fan and the light at the same time. When you turn off the light, the fan will continue to run for a set period of time. You can adjust the length of time the fan runs after the light is turned off.

On mine I have both a chain switch for the fan and a chain switch for the light.

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

Yes the room light and fan can be controlled separately with a split switch designed to accommodate the two different functions. This kind of switch - bought on line from a big box hardware store - goes in the same electrical box that contained the original, single pole switch that turned the fan and light on simultaneously. I did not care about the night light, so my new switch separately controls only the fan and larger room light, not the night light.

Short answers is no. If you don't have a seperate switch in the same location that controls the fan then you'll need an electrician to run an additional wire from rhe fan to the switch box.

Yes, you would need to connect the power from the fan to the light. Recommend you get a license electrician to do the wiring.
