    No, the fan speed controller is different inside than a dimmer. Best to use a CTCL-153P-WH.

    Thanks! for the info. that helps me.
    Other question:
    can I use the CTFSQ-F-WH if the fan has lights on it ? will that slow down the fan and dim down the lights ? or the CTFSQ-F-WH is just for fan with no lights?

    The CTFSQ-F-WH is for the fan portion only. If there is a light kit, it would need it's own dimmer and another wire at least in the box leading up to the fan. If there is only a black, white, and bare wire in and out of the box where you wish to install the dimmer, then you would have to go with the Maestro Fan/Light stack dimmer- MALFQHWWH. Unfortunately, this stack dimmer/fan control cannot do LED bulbs or fluorescent. Only incandescent. It splits a signal with a controller that is placed in the fan's canopy.
