We are happy to hear that everything worked out. Just a note that the red wire may be a switch wire. We would suggest just capping the red wire from the house and just connecting the black from the fan to the black from the house.

Thanks!

The short answer is that the receiver can only be wired to one standard on/off toggle switch. In general, remote control fans can not also be connected to 2 separate switch for fan speed and light control. Technically, the fan could be wired to separate switches instead of being installed with the remote. To do that, you would need to cut the wire harness from the fan wires to separate the wires to be able to connect them to the switch wires. Once the wire harness is cut off, you will have 3 separate wires - Black (fan speed), white (neutral), and blue (light power).

The issue may be with the switch limiting power to the fan. You can troubleshoot this by wiring the receiver to the house supply line (no switch) and see if the fan function improves. If not, we would suggest calling Home Decorators Collection customer service. Their team is pretty good at troubleshooting over the phone.

@@ceilingfans101 thanks I appreciate the response!

Thanks for watching. No ground wire, no problem. The issue is with the dimming knob. We would suggest either connecting the fan directly to the house supply line and capping off the switch wire, or changing the switch to a standard on/off switch.

@@ceilingfans101 Ah-Ha! That dimmer switch is most likely the culprit. I'm gonna to take your suggestion to simply connect the wire leads from the fan directly to the house supply and install a cover plate. I'll let you know how it goes! Thanks so much for your quick response.

We have to say that we are not licensed electricians and if you have questions about wiring, you should always contact a licensed electrician to make sure wires are connected correctly. That being said, we would suggest just capping off the red wire using an electrical nut and electrical tape. Typically, a red wire is a switch wire. If you want to use the switch, connect the receiver power wire to the red wire instead of the house black wire and cap off the house black wire. This would allow you to turn the fan and light on/off using the switch.

Are you using a switch? How are you tunring the light on? Are you using the light button or the power button on the remote?

lol. From a boomer to a zoomer, I'm glad to hear it helped!

The copper wire is for the ground connection. The Ground is not required, but helpful to protect the fan in case of power surges.

You may have to loosen the screws at the base of the mounting bracket a bit to allow the canopy ring to attach.

@@ceilingfans101 I finally got it, that was the hardest part of the install, thank you for replying !!

It was originally introduced in the Canadian market and is new to the US market.

@@ceilingfans101 Do you know why the brushed nickel Fawndale is sold with chains instead of a remote in Canada?

@@thefanobsession5253 It was just a choice that Depot Canada made.

@@ceilingfans101 It’s definitely unique

Most shaking and noise issues can be atributed to loose or incorrectly installed parts. Please make sure everything is installed correctly and completely tightened. If that does not resolve the issue, call the customer service number listed on the manual cover. The HDC team is good at troubleshooting over the phone.

I wasn’t about to compromise the fan by loosening the HH screws under the canopy, so the decorative cover could adhere. Other than that, was still a tricky install but glad with the end-result. If you run into this, I defo recommend snapping off the cover, as you really don’t notice it. Don’t sacrifice the stability of the unit for a cover plate!

@@bundoastonvilla757 Sometimes, you may have to loosen the screws at the base of the canopy to allow them to stick through the keyhole slots when attaching the canopy. This will not compromise the stability of the fan. Once the screws stick through the bottom of the canopy, the canopy is twisted to engage the keyhole slots. Once the keyhole slots are engaged, the screws should be tightened just enough to secure the canopy. If the screws are overtightened, they may bend the canopy and become recessed, but if done properly, the base of the screw head will tighten against the canopy and the the decorative ring will be able to twist onto the screw heads.

@@ceilingfans101 Not in my experience. I didn’t over-tighten. The canopy was firm, not overly compressed to the ceiling. I am doing another one this weekend. Will let you know. Also your angling in with a Philips to tighten HH was curious. Good way to strip the screw heads. Folks, get yourself a 3” Phillips screwdriver so you ensure you don’t strip the screws.

The space is pretty standard for a downrod fan.
