Skylark Fan Control, 3-Speed, 1.5-Amp/Single-Pole, White (SFSQ-FH-WH)

A:  We're sorry to hear about the issues you're having. We're here to help! Please reach out to our Support Team at support@Lutron.com or give us a call at 1-844-LUTRON1 for assistance.

A:  This control has 4 positions only: Off, Low, Medium, and High. It works well if you don't need a variable speed controller.

A:  No, there are not any variable speeds in between the 3 speeds. We do have a variable speed fan control, model number SFS-5E-color, however it is mainly used for exhaust fans. A variable speed fan control is not recommended for a ceiling paddle fan, as it makes the fan motor noisy.

A:  Thank you for contacting Lutron Support! The SFSQ-FH is designed to control a standard 3-speed ceiling fan which only utilizes pull-chains to adjust its speeds. A fan that includes its own remote or wall control typically uses a proprietary control technology and would likely be incompatible with a third-party fan speed control. As always, Lutron would suggest reaching out to your fan manufacturer to verify if this control would be compatible with their fan.

A:  It should. Set the fan at the highest speed via the pull-chain switch, and then adjust the desired final fan speed via the switch.

A:  Lutron recommends setting the fan to the highest setting before installing the SFSQ-F, which will then use its own set of capacitors for speed. For more information on installing please visit https://www.lutron.com/TechnicalDocumentLibrary/033206.pdf
