I have a wall heater with the rotary switch controlling the heater and fan. Will this work for me?

I don't believe so, this switch couldn't even handle the power draw of my shop fan so I can't see it working on a heater unless it was only controlling the fan portion of the heater.

No, this is a fan switch only. I'd look for a slider switch. This one has to be played with to get the setting. Good luck!

It will, but this timer is only rated for 800 watts. If your heater is more that that, you should go with another option.

It is a Universal Remote, so it probably will work as long as it has the 4 on/off switches in the fan. Set the remote switches with the same sequence, and it should work OK.

I would think so. What are you trying to operate with this switch? I used it for a whole house fan.

If you only have 1 hot wire, this switch won't help you. You'll either need to buy a fan with a remote or buy a separate unit and remote for your fan.

i think it should work, but remember it does not use household electricty, the heating unit creats electricty. and that is what opens and close the thermostat

I purchased the W84 but found out it was my fan assembly, not the switch. My electrician said they will both work.

This switch allows us to turn our fan light on/off and control the fan speed low, medium, & high. I'm not sure how this will or will not work with your remote. You have to check if your remote sensor is on the fan itself or to your switch.

I don,t believe it will. Some controls have differant buttons for differant things. But then again you have to put in a code for your fan, so it might work. Try going to the maker's web site and maybe it will match your remote for your model fan, that's all I can suggest.

Unit does not come with a wall switch. While we're at it, this unit has three separate functions; light, exhaust fan, and heater unit(with another fan motor). The heater circuit must have a switch capable of handling 15-20 amps. Therefore buy the compatible Broan-Nutone switch made for this unit

It worked with mine . I did not have to change the unit that was installed with the fan . I put batteries in it and it worked the fan controls

Yes, if your original fan uses a remote with similar functions. Start by setting the dip switch settings in the battery compartment to match your original remote, if you still have it. My original remote had all the switches set to up(didn't work). I moved them to all down(didn't work). I moved the left most switch up and left the others down and it works perfectly. Good luck there are 16 different combinations. :-)

Only if the fan was furnished with the same type of remote. You will need to change the switch settings in the battery compartment to match the fan. you will need the old remote to copy those settings. Good Luck

You sure could do that. Just set it to your choice of fan speed, heat setting, etc. with the outlet timer ON, leave the heater at that desired settings, timer goes OFF so does the heater and then it will come to life when the timer energizes the heater. Guess the only issue would be if your timer has the appropriate rating to operate the heater.

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.

Heat bulb and fan have separate wires so they can be connected to separate switches---just connect only the one you want to use--

I would not recommend this switch for your heater. This will not start the heater until it detects movement. Small heaters are best used when there is someone there to insure it doesn't get too hot or possibly ignite something that may have gotten too close to it. From a simply electrical perspective my Westek plug-in has worked perfectly for over two years to turn on and off the lights in the basement playroom.
