Re: [DIY] Question about ceiling & remotes

 

I recommend you have both a switch and the remote.  The first time you either lose the remote or your dog thinks it's
a tasty snack (don't ask), you're going to wish you had another way to turn off the light on the fan.

OK guys, when all else fails, I turn to you :)  We need to have a fan w/light installed in the area where we are currently installing a wood ceiling.  They guy had planned to install the fan with the remote only - no wall switch.  There has never been a light in this area, and it's something to do with how hard it would be to find the right wire and connect to a new switch, since he can't easily get into the area to run wires??  He can wire it to existing light switch but I don't want to have them on just to have the fan light on.


With our current fan/light I use the remote most of the time, but I'm wondering about problems installing the new fan/light for use only with a remote?  The one I'm looking at is the Chateau Deville 52 in. LED Indoor Deville Walnut Ceiling Fan at Home Depot.  He says you just wire it for the remote, not a wall switch.  Home Depot says that's probably OK??  My other option is simply to install a hanging light and worry about a fan later, but the only remote I saw to be used for this purpose - again at HD was $50, more than the lamp.  Need to make a decision fast since he's about to that area.

Thanks!!!
