Does the universal remote work on this fan?

Hi Earlene, Thanks for the question. It depends. If it's an EMERSON brand universal remote it should work. If not, you can always go the safe route and get the SW90W remote control model. It controls fan speed, and also has light dimming capabilities. We hope this helps! Earlene, if you have any other questions, or would like to place an order, please reach out to one of our awesome experts. Not only do they know everything, they're also literally sitting right next to their phones right now :) Hansen Wholesale 1-800-201-1193

My remote does not work with this fan. It does work with my other Lasko fan. Any thoughts?

If you are referring to a handheld remote, I don't know. If you mean a wall control or switch, yes. And, I love the fan.

It is a Harbor Breeze remote and I would guess it would work as long as the switches are set to match those in the fan.

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.

It does on mine and I concur with the other comments! I actually had not noted the remote until this question,Then found it slipped into the body of the fan right at the top. Works exactly like the regular fan controls. This is one great fan!

No is doesn't. I did buy a universal remote kit and installed it and it works well. Wiring was a bit challenging.

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.

We do not have a remote. But I believe if you read the description from Hunter, some of their fans you can buy an optional remote kit. Check direct with Hunter for the exact specs (I did) and then you will know for sure.

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.

sort of, fan must be in highest speed before installing universal remote or you can remove pull chain wiring and put them together with a wire nut

No remote. We bought one with a remote before this one, but the remote only worked for a few days, so we decided to do without. Love this fan.

Yes, just make sure you transfer the remote control module from the old fan and wire it in the same way on the new one. The remote control module are usually a add on device that is separate from the fan itself.

It says it is a universal, so I would think it would work on certain other fans. Although it may be a marketing scheme and they say universal, but then require a receiver install that is paired with the remote.

It will work as long as the receiver in the fan and the remote are set identical. That is if they are on the same frequency. So set the switches in the same order, either on or off on both. If this doesn't work you may have to change the fan's receiver to the Hampton Bay's.

I assume it will. I purchased a universal remote (not Hunter's) and they work fine with my fans.

It does not come with a remote but you could probably purchase one from Hunter that would work. This is a very good fan for the money, easy assembly, quiet and moves the air well. We really like them (yes, we have purchased 2)
