Comments about Casablanca C17G664A Vita Matte Silver Gallery Edition Ceiling Fan:

This is a very HEAVY fan!. It comes with a hex bolt which must be screwed into ceiling joist. Do not attempt to hang without installing bolt. Instruction Booklet is pretty general,not very specific. For example, wiring section states to connect black and white wires to corresponding black and white wires in ceiling fan box. Well in this day and age with 3 way switches, separate switches for light and fan for older ceiling fans (before the days of ceiling fans with remote controls)their are usually quite a few wires involved. The instructions just stated to call an electrician. Come on for crying out loud? I would definitely check your wiring in ceiling box before attempting to install. You only want to haul this bad boy up the ladder once. Also, you must check antennae located on top of fan in compartment which contains all the guts. Mine was buried, and as a result, the handheld remote had problems communicating. Nothing is mentioned in instruction manual about this. I called Casablanca support and they told me what the default code was for the dip switches on the remote. Once again, nothing in manual is mentioned regarding this. I will give the remote kudos for having a reverse switch to adjust air flow direction. No more hauling out the 8' ladderDon't get me wrong, this is an extremely high quality, well built, ceiling fan which puts anything [...] sells to shame. The Vita is a beautiful fan with clean contemporary lines!
