Can this ceiling fan be controlled by a wall switch?

Absolutely for on and off and the 3 speeds will be controld with the pull chain.

Yes. Ours were installed by an electrician so I don't know how it is done, but they are controlled by a wall switch. One was installed with an added light which is also controlled by wall switch.

There isn't a switch included on the fan. You can purchase a specific rheostat type switch or as I did just use a standard on/off switch.

It comes with a remote control and a bracket for mounting the remote control on a wall. It does not have a hard-wired wall control. Also, it would be inconvenient to turn the fan off with a regular wall switch because it won't come back up to speed when you turn the power back on; it takes a couple of clicks on the remote to do that.

We leave the light ON on the remote, so we can operate that with the wall switch, and then just use the remote for the fan, which we use much less often. So, it can be done. :-)

This item is hard-wired into the wall. There is a separate remote that came with my fan, that can fully operate the fan without the wall switch, however in my situation, having both options is very nice. In my case, the wiring did need to go from the Fan to the Switch for both to work.

The fan doesn't come with a wall switch but it can be wired to almost any type of wall switch. HOWEVER, the Minka is a three-wire European system so an extra ground line would have to be installed to use a wall switch. The remote and receiver come separately. It operates three speeds of the fan and turns the light on/off. I mounted the bracket for the remote onto the wall and use the remote as a "wall" switch. If you want the light off permanently you can remove the bulb easily. Or just don't turn it on. The frosted light fixture makes the bulbs pretty much useless anyway other than for a night light. Fantastic fan, though.

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.

Yes it can. There are two separate buttons to control the fan and the light. They both have a high and low setting.

This fan can be turned on or off with the remote or wall switch. You cannot control the dimmer or speed from the wall switch.

I believe that you will need two wall switches --- one for turning the fan on/off and one for turning the light on/off.

It does not. Wall switch control only that I'm aware of. Very nice fan though.

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!

No. It is basically just and on/off switch which is activated by plenum/duct pressure. I also bought a fan that has two speeds so that I could control the air flow in the downstream duct.

Actually, I can use a wall-switch (for previous fan) to turn this fan on and off from a pre-set speed. Works great.

Yes it can definately be hard wired to a wall switch. simply do not use the on/off switch that comes with the fan.

Yes, you can discard the WCS212 control unit and replace it with a standard wall switch. I have 2 Minka Aire fans, one of them is controlled with the WCS212 and a hand held remote; the other fan is controlled with a standard wall switch (which I keep always on) and the hand held remote

do I have to buy a remote for this fan or can be controlled manually like most of the ceiling fans?
