I have had this wonderful 45 inch Casablanca Ventura Fan for over 35 years. I had it in the kitchen of the last house I lived in and told my husband that I am taking it with for the master bedroom of the new condo that we purchased. It has been working very well ..................... no complaints. During a severe snow/rain storm (we got 9 inches of snow) a couple of days ago complete with lightning, my fan w/light turned on in the middle of the night, awakening me out of a sound sleep! I do not have a remote for this fan. I am wondering if in any way the fan/light has the power to do this during an electrical storm! I have lived through many electrical storms during the past 30 some years without ever having this happen! However, I guess anything is possible. I did get up and check out all of the doors, rooms and closets of my four room/2 bath condo and found that the house was secure! I turned off the fan/light and returned to bed for the rest of my sleep! The fan/light is still working like the day we first installed it! Thank you for making such a great product! I am not a pissed consumer!
