My in-laws have two ceiling fans in their living room. Currently the lights are controlled by two separate light switches (in one box), and the fans are controlled by pull strings. As part of a rewiring project, I'd like to rewire the fans to be controlled by wall controls instead of the pull strings.
So, I'm curious if I could wire both ceiling fans to a single control?
Each fan has 4 lights, so that's about 480 watts for the lights. I assume I should be OK there as long as I get a control with the proper wattage rating.
What I don't know is how two fan motors would cope on a single speed control? Would this cause any problems?
Thanks,
Anthony
