Can I Make My Marta 52 in. Ceiling Fan Smart with Bond?
Sick of the old fashion ceiling fan where you have to stand up to pull the chains, or need to find the remote control to adjust the speed of your fan? Here is the solution! A Ceiling Fan Remote Hub powered Smart Wi-Fi Bond?
How Bond Works?
It is a focal point that will add control for your wireless ceiling fan in your home or at the office. You can access it using your android phone or apple device. It will allow you to manoeuvre a non- smart device by just using your phone.
Installation is not needed with bond, you just have to connect the Bond Bridge to the home Wi-Fi, and in a few minutes, you are able to control your fan using an easy to use application.
Another feature that I like with bond is the voice control using Amazon Echo and Google Home. You also have the full control of your ceiling fan functionality like turning it on and off, controlling the speed from high to low, low to high, and changing the light if you want it dim.
Just 1 bond can handle up to 30 ceiling fan devices. The Apps for your iOS or Android devices are free.
No rewiring is needed, it is easy to use and install with just a push-button set up.
