You need an electrical outlet for the fan to plug into, otherwise you can hard-wire it to a electrical source.

Not if you have an outlet. If there's no outlet then run an extension cord or have an electrician put in an outlet close to the location you wish to mount the fan.

I use the one I have on large fans and it works OK. I don't know about using for lights.

The fan does not include a cord. It has a standard connection box. Mine is wired with 14 AWG in flex from the fan to a wall mounted box.

Yes, I installed my fan that way. It mainly depends on how your house us wired. Many new construction houses have the wiring setup for ceiling fans where one switch operates the light, the other operates the fans. Older houses may require more work.

No. This only controls items you can plug in. There are remote control fan switches you can install at the switch. Just do a "remote control ceiling fan switch" search.

i used mine with a lamp by removing one of the pattern pieces and affixing to the lamp with tape to balance it. I would imagine you could do this with a ceiling fan and still use the bulb. It does not come with a cord. It is just the puzzle pieces and fairly useless instructions. If you are good at puzzles it is fairly instinctive how to put it together from looking at the pictures though.

We did, we installed outlet in adjoining closet and used extension cord. We used a GIF outlet. Good luck.

You can connect the fan directly to the outlet, thru the thermostat. You can also use another electrical item if you have the plug-in outlet. Just assure that you do not exceed the amphere rating of the circuit.

The fan that I received had a heavy power cord with 3 prong plug. I use the fan as a cooling fan for our greenhouse and it has worked like a charm - had no problems with it (it runs all summer long when the temp gets too high).

If you have other devices with detachable cords, go through them, there is probably at least one that will work. The best answer is get in touch of the producer or seller of the fan and try to get a new cord. If you do use a cord from another item, be sure the current strength is identical, other wise it will burn the fan out.

Our cord was long enough to hang the lights from a 14 ft ceiling, about 7 ft off the floor.(I believe the description says it's a 50" inch cord) I don't know if you could replace the cord. The wires were covered in a cord that matched the fixture (oiled bronze). We had the electrician that wired the addition install all the fixtures and I don't think he had any issues with these. I posted a picture of one of the lights. I saw where they are $7.99 now so you wouldn't be out much if you wanted to try a longer cord. (Ours were twice that)

This fan is 12 v dc, You have to use a 12v dc power supply 2-3 amp. They sell for about $8-$10. Solder leads to fan and plug in wall.

My remote us not wired into the wall. I have it so I can use like a TV remote. Hope this answer your question. The fan is beautiful.

Yes there is a pull cord switch for both fan and light. But need an extension to reach if high ceiling. Our pull tab on the light has broken from chain so be gentle I guess when pulling on little tab.

Yes, if you are handy as someone else stated you could do a notch by your hole that you cut thought the wall, may need to do a little notch on the fan cover. Can't remember how long the cord is but it could be spliced or replaced. Also not very hard to run an outlet from one side of the wall to the other to get power there.
