About the Hampton Bay CHQ8BT7096T Remote

A dropped, chewed or simply worn-out CHQ8BT7096T doesn't mean a new fan. This remote restores an LCD display, Fan Auto and a timer key. You'll usually find CHQ8BT7096T printed after the letters FCC on a sticker on the back, or molded into the plastic beside the battery. Note that some Windward III remotes with this label have a red or orange light button and pair with an up/down-light receiver; those need a different remote and receiver kit, so check the light button color first.

It's made to stand in for the CHQ8BT7096T on Hampton Bay fans. Setup is four DIP switches and four AAA batteries.

  • Four 1.5V AAA batteries, sold separately
  • Fan Timer key for automatic off
  • One fan key steps through high, medium, low and off

Reading the display

The LCD on the front shows three things: the temperature you set, the current room temperature and the battery level. If the display reads in Celsius and you want Fahrenheit, press the small F/C button in the pin-hole on the back with a pen tip.

Four AAA batteries

The LCD and thermostat need a bit more power than a basic remote, so this one takes four 1.5V AAA batteries. Use a fresh matched set, and watch the battery level on the display so you can swap them before the remote fades.

Before you order

  • Campbell fans may need a matching receiver as well as the remote. Contact us before ordering for a Campbell fan.

Setup & Pairing

If your old remote is still around, setup takes a couple of minutes.

  1. Shut off the fan's circuit at the breaker.
  2. Slide off the battery cover on the new remote. The 4 DIP switches are inside the battery compartment.
  3. Write down the up/down positions from the old remote or the canopy receiver.
  4. Copy that pattern onto the new remote, load four AAA batteries and close it up.
  5. Turn the power back on and test the fan speeds and light.

Once it works, mount the wall bracket and keep the remote on it between uses.

In the box: CHQ8BT7096T replacement remote with Fan Timer key, wall mount bracket and 2 mounting screws.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where are the DIP switches?

Inside the battery compartment. Slide off the cover and you'll see four small switches to match to your receiver.

What battery does it take?

Four 1.5V AAA batteries, not included.

What does the Fan Timer key do?

It sets the fan to turn itself off later, so you can fall asleep with it running.

Does it come with a wall holder?

Yes. A wall mount comes in the box so the remote always has a place to go.

What do the switch positions mean?

Each DIP switch is either up or down (on or off). The pattern is all that matters: it must match the receiver switch for switch.

When will my order ship?

In-stock orders placed by 4 PM, Monday to Friday, ship the same business day.
