my buddy said you can do that. He's an electrician. If you look at the post i put up about Fan Wiring, you will see.
dusto2k3 Reviewed by dusto2k3 on . Dimmer switch for fan speed control? Can I use a light dimmer switch on my fan? They are rated 120V, and for 600-800w (fans are only like 80w right?)... I'm going to be plugging/wiring my fan into where an old fluff fan used to be, and I was hoping to wire a dimmer switch to it, to control speed (where currently there is a light switch). For all you electrical guru's, is there any modifying I need to do to the switch? I could buy the ones that they sell at garden stores, but they are three times the price. Thanks, Rating: 5
