Afraid to buy new ceiling fans — what if the remote is lost or broken?

Question:

I don’t know how we can buy these new ceiling fans if they all use remotes. I’m afraid of losing the remote, or it breaks. Then what? Replace the whole fan if the manufacturer doesn’t make that model any more? What do you do if your ceiling fan remote breaks?

Answer:

Just get a AC fan.Classical ceiling fans can be installed with a wall control system, even though they come with a remote + receiver, as the fan motor and light themselves will accept 120VAC without issue.

Happily,we have found multiple manufacturers that specialize in selling 3 Speed AC Ceiling Fan Light Remote Controls: Breeze Bay ,Onisamt, Prichor, Fekots,Corebay,Bayicon…

Or You can get “smart” fans that connect to your network for operation from your phone or your home automation system… or retrofit fans with controllers that interface this way.

Prichor, Breeze Bay and Fekots are dedicated to the field of smart dimmer switches and ceiling fan controls.
