Choosing a ceiling fan is no longer just about design or technical features. Today, the type of control has become a key part of the project. From advanced smart home systems to more intuitive or minimalist solutions, the control you choose can make all the difference in comfort, energy efficiency, and user experience.
At Faro Barcelona, we offer different control options for ceiling fans, tailored to every installation style, technical requirement, and level of automation. Here's a quick guide to each type, with a direct link to explore every detail based on your choice.
1. 0-10V / 1-10V Compatibility
Perfect for smart home or automation projects, this type of control is compatible with all market alternatives, including active or passive potentiometers and centralized systems. The connection is point-to-point with each fan, with no need for intermediate gateways.
References include VA (0-10V/1-10V Active), VP (0-10V/1-10V Passive), or VC (0-10V/1-10V Active/Passive).

4. Remote controls
Most of our fans come with a pre-synced remote control. You only need to pair it if it's a replacement or a smart model. Intuitive, easy to use, and designed for hassle-free installation.

5. Other systems
Some simpler or more specific models may include a pull chain (such as our Cuba or Palao) or wall-only control (such as Keiki). These options are ideal for simple setups that prioritize ease of use.
