Exactly what I was looking to do. Thank You !
Glad it was helpful 👍🏻
I added a Hunter-brand remote control switch to operate the ceiling fans in my two bedrooms. They don’t have a red wire for separate fan and light control, so it was either this or run new wire. It’s two parts - a transmitter that replaces your wall switch, and a receiver unit that you wire into the fan housing. They were pretty easy to install, and only cost $35 or so at the time.
I’ve done that too. It’s better than using pull chains, as long as you don’t lose the remote.
Great job
Thanks 😊
Great video
Thanks so much 😊
Nice one!
Thanks 😊
is living flip done? really enjoyed that series
We’ve actually got another episode in the works! We’re building a pool pergola right now.
I have a non remote kichler fan with a DC wall controller. No pull chains on the fan. Any idea if the caseta wall unit will integrate?
Sorry. I don’t know. I have no experience with DC fans.
What did you do to wiring on the fan? Were they always white on white?
I just removed the remote receiver and connected the fan wires directly to the box wires, black to black and white to white.
I use the treat life wifi switches that do the fan and the light and control through smart life app
I really don’t like being dependent on cloud services. When the internet goes down, everything stops working.
@@handydadtv has physical buttons also
True. I meant automations.
What did you use to replace the wall cover from 3 classic switches to 2 + caseta?
I bought a new plate.
@@handydadtvdoes the caseta cell the wall plates?
Great video. Is that an AC or DC powered fan
All fans are powered by line voltage which is AC. If you mean the motor itself, sometimes they use DC motors internally. But I don’t know what this one has.
Hello sir, i installed this in-wall Lutron smart fan switch step by step from your video (not utilizing a pico remote). I installed the smart fan switch with the fan on the highest speed (chain fan). The issue I'm having is, the fan and lights will only work on the highest fan speed. When I use the lower speed modes, the fan and lights turn off. This happens with both the wall switch and Lutron app.
You definitely can’t control the light with the Lutron fan switch. That should be disconnected. I don’t know why it’s not working the fan properly. Check Lutron support.
Nice
Thanks 😊
I have Hampton Bay Mena fans throughout my house. They have a control box and a remote control but no smart home capability. I’m interested in doing this but my fan light and the fan itself are wired to the same switch. If the wall switch is on then the remote can control the light and fan. If the wall switch is off the remote controls nothing. How would I be able to control the light in this scenario as the Lutron switch only seems to handle controlling the fan itself?
In your situation, you wouldn’t be able to use the light.
0:28 Question: did you actually remove the control module or just turn the unit to high using the existing remote and wire up accordingly?
I love the Casetá system and have two fans to replace switches on. One has a loose, replaceable control module (line/neutral in & 3-16g strand wires out; the other must be integrated on the motor housing (just a line/neutral/ground connection)
Great video btw👍🏻👍🏻
I actually removed the receiver module completely. Connecting the motor directly to power is the same as running it on high.
Fan speed controls just toggle the power on and off very quickly to simulate lower speeds.
Interesting. So I’ll just have to get the wiring diagram, discern the L/N and direct wire.
Thx for the reply. You just got yourself a new follower👍🏻👍🏻
So if my ceiling fan utilizes pull chains only (no remote) I only need to set the fan to high speed before programming? No need to open the wiring canopy?
@atommy4625 Yes. Make sure it’s on high before you start. Then remove the chain.
@@handydadtv Thank you. Great video
Does it matter if your fan is ac or dc? I bypassed the on board control module and there are three wires coming out of motor. I’m assuming one of the wires is a speed control? I know which one is the live wire but had to experiment on which was the neutral. No matter how I hooked them up, I got a loud noise when fan started. Wonder if it is because it is a dc motor.
This switch controls the AC line going to the fan. It doesn’t matter if the fan has a DC motor.
So light wiring is separate from fan?
Yes. Typically a prewired fan box uses 3-conductor wire with black, red and white. The red wire will typically be used for a switch to control the light.
Does cadets provide a plate for its switches
Sometimes.
1 = extra low 2=low 3= medium 4=high
Nice 👍🏻
Thanks !😁
Love the catholic cross ✝️ and very smart how I may change my fan switch . Super cool an communication skills
Many Blessings
Thanks so much 😊

What happens if you don’t re-wire the control module?
It won’t work. The remote receiver module expects constant power. If you want a wall switch, don’t use a fan with a remote control module.
