Casablanca Ceiling Fan Wiring

How to Wire a Casablanca Ceiling Fan and Remote Control – The wiring connections for a Casablanca Ceiling Fan are very straight forward because these ceiling fans use their own proprietary remote control system and all of the switching is done at the remote control module which is internal at the ceiling fan, there is no need to install a separate module. © By: Dave Rongey |
Casablanca Ceiling Fan and Remote Control Wiring
Electrical Project: I’m trying to figure out the wiring in a new Casablanca Vermont Fan model # C34G546M. Can split the fan from light control. Mounting the fan at top of 2 story stairwell, fine for remote to control the fan (and light) upstairs, but want the light switch at bottom of stairs to control light, so want to bypass the remote for the light.
Casablanca before ordering (I called) said no problem, upon receiving support said “you can’t, will void warranty” and I said they said you can and am sure people do all the time – please tell us color of the wire, referred us to customer support center admitting you can, but “they don’t want you to” but Florida center is just a recording (nearest center apparently)…can you help?

Precaution: Identify the ceiling fan circuit, turn it OFF and Tag it with a Note before working with the wiring.
Mark, I have installed literally hundreds of ceiling fans and the Casablanca Ceiling Fan is one of the best ceiling fans your customer could ever purchase. The wiring connections for a Casablanca Ceiling Fan are very straight forward because these ceiling fans use their own proprietary remote control system and all of the switching is done at the remote control module which is internal at the ceiling fan, there is no need to install a separate module. The wiring connections are basic color to color and all the switching is done through the hand held remote control or the Casablanca remote wall switch. It just doesn’t get any simpler, these fans are rock solid and I have never had a Casablanca ceiling fan wobble, they are simply First Class and one of the Best.
