I lost my wireless remote, is there any other way to operate the fan? Or, can I get a new remote?

I called the manufacturer telling them I had a defective remote, and they sent me a replacement free of charge. I'm sure if you were to call them, they would do the same.

I don't think there's another way to operate it. Can probably get on from Brookstone.

I bet if you call the manufacturer that you can get a new remote but that's the only way to operate it.

I did not use a remote but I think one is available. We put it where the old exhaust fan was & it was easy to have the light & fan work separately. I love this little fan, just be careful after you install it that you don't drop the light cover like I did. Westinghouse was helpful in replacing it.

The fan is not programmable. I do have a fairly old unit, probably over 15 years old. You may want to check their website to see if this is now offered.

We did not receive a remote control for this fan, so I would guess that is not available for this model.

I looked around for a compatible remote for my fan and it doesn't seem matter. Regardless of what type of remote you get you will have to undo the fan and wire in a new receiver. I got one that was specific to my model of fan. I had to rewire it anyway. Its not difficult to do, just a pain. Have a friend to help.

The fan was so easy to install. The remote in the fan was already hard-wired. It sounds like the manual remote is defective or the remote receiver in the fan is defective. I'm sure you've checked the way you installed the batteries. Call their hotline.

From the research I have done, the remote and IR receiver in the fan have to be compatible. Replacement components are no longer available, The only solution is a new ceiling fan with a compatible remote.

Sorry, we bought the fan with the remote and also you can purchase a wall switch that does the same as the remote. We purchased the wall switch and had it installed and also we have the remote. Just Google your fan model or check Emerson website and you will find a wall switch that is for that fan.

It worked for our's - we were thrilled not to have to replace our fan. The price for the replacement remote was low. Good luck - I hope you have the success we did.

No, you can not install a remote to operate this low profile fan. I was hoping to do the same but my brother (who is an electrician) informed me it was not possible. Sorry! I have NOT however, been at all disappointed with this fan. It's totally quiet when operating and I have no issues with being able to pull the cord to set the speed of the blades, depending on how quickly I want to cool down the room.

Email the company. They will send you one. They also forgot to send the remote with mine.

Is the fan the same fan you purchased with the original controller?? If so you shouldn't have to re-progam the control. When we got our replacement control we put in new batteries and it worked right away. If its a different fan then the original you should probably contact the manufactuer of the fan for help. I don't remember putting in any code???

Unfortunately we do not carry a replacement remote. You may able to find a replacement unit at a local hobby store, or perhaps from a specialized hobby seller here on Amazon. :)

When I bought the fan, I had a remote. The original remote got stepped on. So I had to buy another. They guy who put my fan up was able to get the new remote to work with fan.

Yes you can use a remote with this fan. Some part numbers are 7784100 and 7784000

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.

I had this same problem, there is an override switch in the fan that occasionally needs to be reset. This happened to us twice, the third time the override switch went and we had to order a new one. Try that first, our new switch and remote work perfectly.
