Author: Me and my brother both installed our Hampton Bay Ceiling fans. Both of ours came with a remote control (mine is a different model than his) Either way, when I turn on my light… His light turns on. And when he changes his fan it changes his fan as well as my fan. This is driving me ABSOLUTELY INSANE because I’ll just be sitting there and the light will just shut off, or all of a sudden my fan will go on very high. Is there anything I can do about this? I’m going to call the manufacturer if nobody can help me. Thanks for your time.
These controls are super powerful. His room is on the other side of the house and that is with BOTH doors closed… But the guard may work.

Identical fans mean identical remote controls. When you use one, both fans see the signal and respond. You can check with the store you bought them from and see if there is a way to change the coding for one fan, but I rather doubt it. Perhaps a better possibility is to locate the sensor on the fan that the sees the remote and put a little guard around it so it can’t see the remote in the other room. A simpler solution would be to close the door, but you may have reasons to keep the door open. You may have to replace the fan if there is another brand that uses different coding.

Unfortunately no. The remote that you’re referring to is made by Hunter & only compatible with Hunter products. On the other hand, your ceiling fan manufactured by Hampton Bay, "Home Depot", would only be compatible with that product name. I know this for a fact, because I actually tried doing it myself. If you were to look at your transmitter, look where there is a little rectangle recessed box/area with four numbers in it. These #’s are what you coordinate with one-another to make the remote even work. What I’ve learned is this, If the color of the little panel is blue, then it would work with any remote that has the same color panel. If it were red, same thing & so on with any other color. There is red, blue, black & green. I wish you the very best of luck & Merry X-mas!!!!
