CRButler01 Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 I currently have a single gang switch that controls both my light (top of switch) and fan (bottom of switch). It’s a Lutron. I’m slowly changing out all of my switches with new ones that will integrate with Control4. So far, I’ve used Control4’s switches. Anyone know if they make a single gang switch that will control both the light and the fan? Otherwise, I’m guessing I’ll just need to see if Lutron makes the switch in a smart format. Thanks.
BraydonH Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 Unfortuneately not. I had the exact lutron one you talk about https://www.homedepot.ca/en/home/p.maestro-lightfan-control-in-white.1000475413.html What I ended up doing was putting in a 2g. I used a Keypad Dimmer and Fan Speed Controller. It sucked that I couldn't do this in a retrofit fashion and have it in a 1g. Once in place you will likely appreciate that you used in the C4 gear. Only other combo dimmer/fan controller that might work with Control4 would be Caseta (other than higher end options from Lutron which wouldn't make sense) But I dont know if I would recommend putting in a Caseta system and hub and integrating that with Control4 just for 1 combo dimmer/fan switch. Probably best just retrofitting a 2g box and using C4 gear.
CRButler01 Posted June 28, 2018 Author Posted June 28, 2018 Thanks much. I figured that was going to be the answer.
SY3 Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 I had the same issue and ended up just using a C4 switch. Pull the chain when we want to turn the fan light on or off. Running a new wire to the fan was not an option.
mstafford388 Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 Where do you live? there is an international version of this.
twmoonly Posted July 6, 2018 Posted July 6, 2018 Or instead of KD 120 and Fan Controller, Use the Fan controller as a Keypad then just get a C4 dimmer. Will save a few dollars
Thepritch88 Posted August 8, 2018 Posted August 8, 2018 If your in the UK there is a control4 dual load dimmer that comes in 1 gang format

mallom Posted August 9, 2018 Posted August 9, 2018 Really? That is interesting!I dont live in the UK, but I would not recommend to control a fan with a dimmer. https://www.control4.com/docs/product/square-dual-load-adaptive-phase-dimmer-240v/data-sheet/english/latest/square-dual-load-adaptive-phase-dimmer-240v-data-sheet-rev-b.pdf
mallom Posted August 9, 2018 Posted August 9, 2018 You could probably use this:https://www.control4.com/docs/product/square-dual-load-switch-240v/data-sheet/english/latest/square-dual-load-switch-240v-data-sheet-rev-b.pdf
Thepritch88 Posted August 9, 2018 Posted August 9, 2018 I wouldn’t recommend dimming a fan either, you can programme one of the loads to just turn on and off and not use the dimming function of the unit
