Thread: Fan switch - caseta

    Fan switch - caseta

    Can you use a dimmer switch to control a ceiling fan? I keep hearing different answers. I am assuming the you shouldn't and should use a on/off switch like a pd-5ws. ???

    You would use the same installation instructions that you would use for wiring to a light.
    PD-5WS-DV instructions: http://www.lutron.com/TechnicalDocum...ry/0301740.pdf .
    PD-6ANS Instructions: http://www.lutron.com/TechnicalDocum...301799_WEB.pdf .

    @All, I want to do the same thing, however today I have one switch for light on/off wired to the fan and a Lutron rotary knob for fan speed separate. Any way I can combine the 2 and or use with Caseta Wireless with the switches mentioned in this thread ? Thanks

    If you have separate switches for you fan and your lights, you can substitute one of the Caseta switches above, but you will only get on/off functionality.
