Essential Info

FanLinc is designed to easily incorporate both fan speed and light control within your INSTEON network. It is a dual-load responder simultaneously acting as a light fixture dimmer plus a 4 speed fan controller (Off, Low, Medium & High). Control the fan speed or lighting kit wirelessly from any INSTEON controller, be it a handheld remote, wall keypad or even your smartphone. Tie it in with a computer controller that can trigger all the fans in the house to turn on (at a predetermined speed) to help circulate the air, reducing costs associated with running your air conditioner.

FanLinc is yet another great addition to the ever expanding family of INSTEON products. View all INSTEON products here.


fanlinc diagramHow FanLinc Works
FanLinc is compatible with most ceiling fans and installs inside the fan cowling between the fan and incoming power. You'll want to make sure you have access to both the fan and (if your fan has a lighting kit attached) the light control wires.

Before finalizing your FanLinc installation you'll want to link it to your selected controllers. Because you don't want to be removing your ceiling fan every time you want to add or remove links, we recommend using software such as HouseLinc to manage all of this from your computer.

Note: FanLinc is not compatible with fans that have remote control built into the motor.

Control Ideas
While there are a wide variety of INSTEON controllers to choose from, let us provide some suggestions...
  • For a truly wireless solution use a handheld 8-scene RemoteLinc to control the ceiling fan from the couch, bedside or mount it anywhere on the wall using a wall mount bracket. Links between RemoteLinc and FanLinc can be made manually however, software configuration recommended.

  • For a more permanent solution, go with an in-wall 6-button KeypadLinc. KeypadLinc replaces any existing wall switch and provides wireless communications to the FanLinc. Links between KeypadLinc and FanLinc can be made manually however, software configuration recommended. pre-labeled FanLinc buttons or Custom-etched keys are sold separately.


FanLinc Control Options

Software Controlled Ceiling Fan




  • Use SmartLinc to control FanLinc or your entire home from your smartphone or computer. Unlock features and manage links, create events and more using hardware/software combinations such as such as HouseLinc or ISY-99.




Dual-Band
FanLinc is dual band so it has the ability to communicate using both the electrical wires in the home (powerline) as well as using radio frequency (RF). This increases reliability not only for FanLinc but for all devices on an INSTEON home control network (similar to the function of an Access Point).

    I little tricky making it all fit the fan BUT my wife loves having a RemoteLinc to control the fan in the middle of the night.
    RALF -- tuscaloosa, AL   5/5/2013
    Love it, working fine without any issues so far.
    MICHAEL -- ridgecrest, CA   4/20/2013
    Works as described. Too bad the firmware could not be programed to adjust the fan spped the user would want for L-M-H
    DON -- cypress, CA   3/25/2013
    like many who have casablanca fans this it not quite a direct replacement. The module has some limitations 3 speeds not 6 like casablanca. also no reverse feature. BUT you can add that function with their micro link and a relay. Full implementation to replace a casablanca system is NOT for beginners.
    MICHAEL TODD -- great falls, SC   2/25/2013
    Had a little trouble getting it set up but once I got it connected and set up it works great. I will be ordering more switches to complete the whole house.
    BRIAN -- plano, TX   2/21/2013
    My first unit was defective but the replacement works just as advertised.
    JIM -- waterford, MI   2/9/2013
    Overall product is ok, however there are two issues I noticed: 1) The two bright RED LED's on the product can't be turned off (or I can't find the setting in the interface or instructions) so there is a nice RED glow on my ceiling where the fan cap meets the ceiling (small gap) 2) The module is not good at dimming LED lights, unfortunately my fan now has 3 LED lights, and one regular bulb. Without the regular bulb the dimming is minimal - it does however shutoff completely when using LED's which is still better than some other similar remote fan modules.
    DONALD -- abilene, TX   2/7/2013
    Great product! I installed this into a fan I originally placed into service 30 years ago. This fan had a "high" speed setting that would nearly launch an ultralight plane, so I set the mechanical fan switch to medium speed. I love the new "three speeds" the fan presents now. The wall switch (for light control only) was missing a neutral, so I used the new insteon 2 wire switch (Part # 2474DWH) for that purpose and capped off the blue light lead on the fanlinc. The fanlinc is connected to an unswitched Hot and Neutral. I link and control everything in my house with houselinc software, so the setup was simple. I am looking forward to programing this fan to operate for 15 minutes On and 5 minutes Off all night during the summer. The timing and speed combinations are unlimited. I also recommend a remotelinc control to manage fan speed and light. I mounted mine to the center bed post with a 3m strip. ( Yes I had my lady's permission. )

    This does exactly what they say it'll do. This is a good product.
    STEVE -- euless, TX   2/1/2013
    These are over-priced and over-sized for my fan applications. They would not fit in my fan hanger brackets. Much better to buy Harbor Breeze fan remote systems, for less than half the cost.
    JOHN -- monee, IL   1/14/2013
    I've installed a total of four of these controllers in my house. All work fine. Some other reviews commented on issues with the "LOW" speed setting, I don't see the problem. Mine are connected to Hunter ceiling fans, some 48" four bladed fans, and the largest is a 60" five bladed fan. All work fine on all three speed settings. Kind of difficult using the set buttons up inside the fan canopy, but I don't see an easy way around that, this is the only reason for the 4 stars instead of 5
    JEFF -- yuma, AZ   12/14/2012
    Just what I needed. I am using a 6-button Keypad Dimmer to control a ceiling fan via a FanLinc. Very professional looking and works very well.
    BERTRAM -- san diego, CA   12/7/2012
    Very straight forward to use. I was confused at first that the fan button on the unit didn't seem to do anything, but finally understood that that is by design for safety reasons.
    DOUGLAS -- uniontown, OH   11/13/2012
    Works well, but as others have mentioned, the speed settings need to be adjusted (or better yet, programmable by the user).
    JERIMIAH -- alamogordo, NM   11/5/2012
    A tight fit, but works great.
    WES -- dallas, TX   10/10/2012
    Love it and works flawlessly with the remotelinc 2
    HALYNA -- van nuys, CA   10/5/2012
    Finaly a Insteon Controler for my fans. It works great.
    HAROLD -- hamilton, ON   8/17/2012
    Out of the box failure Will not fit in standard Octagon electrical box Nice work Very expensive
    JOSEPH -- van nuys, CA   7/19/2012
    I have been waiting for this device for years. It works great.
    JACOB -- chowchilla, CA   7/9/2012
    My FanLinc works great and even communicates well with x10.
