This will only work with the non remote based fans, if it has a remote it likely wont work, I don't much care for remote fans to be honest. In my experience they are more trouble than they are worth.

Really nice video. Thanks but I don't have a white wire in my new Leviton wall switch. I have a ground wire, a black wire and a red wire. I assume the red wire connects with the white wire coming out of the wall. Is that a correct assumption?

So I have a question. I have a Hampton bay switch that’s similar to what you have, but in my wall, there’s a single wire running from one switch to another, from the light switch and also connecting to the fan switch. I’m also not entirely sure which wire should go where on the switch itself.

looks good! the wall switch works on the front end to meter power so i've always been sure to have fan unit set to high. that way the wall switch can, at max, allow the fan to perform to its corresponding max. if that makes sense.

That's what I was wondering. A customer was wondering why her ceiling fan was running irregular from time to time. So fan on high, regulate speed through phreostat?

Hi, My electrician require me to purchase my own fan. I have my eyes on a DC one (6 speed fam remote), but I want to use a wall speed dial rather than remote. Is this possible??

I want to install a wall switch that controls my 3 speed ceiling fan but my current switch is only a single toggle switch which controls both light and the fan. is this possible to do without tearing out all the wiring? having trouble finding any videos helpful on this subject.

I don't believe so, the light and fan are usually 2 different circuits unless its a newer fan with a remote then they can share the same power source. In which case these 3 speed switches will only work with older fans like this one.

@@hanksgarage_ You can just buy a remote kit and wire it in the fan. That way you can control a fan and a light separately with a remote.

josh law No. if you want them controlled separately you would have to use new wires

That ceiling fan could be Loyal or Panasonic, not sure. But it's better than any of ceiling fans you can buy from The Home Depot!

I have 2 fans in one room that work off the same switch. The speeds on these fans, with a 3 level switch are: SUPER-Low, Low, and High. In the other room they are Low, Med, and High. Is this something that can be rectified fairly easily? I just want to know what I am talking about when talking to my contractor, if not do it myself.
