The middle switch in the large box is a single-pole for a hall light and the one on the right is a 3-way switch paired with a different switch for another hall light. The larger box includes the current fan control hooked up on the very left, and the smaller box is the one wired for 3-way. Is there a slider/switch combo I can purchase that both controls the fan and acts as a 3-way light control? I'm having trouble finding one, but might not be searching correctlyīonus question: the fan is on a very high lofted ceiling - and some have said having a light there would get annoying when bulbs need to be changed (pretty much would need to rent a 12-ft ladder), however I think the extra lighting is worth it and bulbs these days last a long time… any thoughts or experiences? :-D.Does it seem like I have correctly deduced that I can add a fan with a light in this way?.However, there is another loose red wire in the box that goes hot with the light switch across the room, so I'm thinking I can replace the fan with one that does have a light that I can control from both locations. What is currently hooked up in this spot is just a fan control (with a red and white wire), which controls the current lightless fan. I have a wiring configuration that appears to allow for a single switch piece that controls a ceiling fan AND 3-way switching of a ceiling fan light (there's another light switch on the other side of the room that seems to pair with the 3-way light switch).
