Factory ceiling fan

With my 5th tucked away for the winter, I am already starting to think of next year mods. My question for today is ceiling fans. My BHLT does not have a ceiling fan, and it is something that I really want and I will install. How does Jayco do it? Is there a wall switch for the fan, or is it a cable pull on the fan itself. Is there a built in light, and if so is there a wall switch for that?

Mine has pulls for the fan and light. No wall switches.

Interesting, I would have thought for sure it would have a wall switch. They are 12v too right?

No, my factory ceiling fan and light are 120V units.

Man I'm guessing wrong with the ceiling fan. Is it like a standard residential model? Do you happen to have a picture of it?

Here is mine. It looks and works like a regular ac ceiling fan.

I'm amazed, it is nothing like I thought it would be. I was expecting a 12V model with wall switches. So for a factory look, I can just go to Home Depot and get the one I want.... I like that better!

You will have to find some AC. Also note the indentation in the ceiling where it is mounted. You may have to be aware of clearance.

The BHLT roof doesn't slope, there's TONS of clearance there. The A/C is there, wonder if it would be bad to pull from there?

Closest source of un-switched AC should do.

My 2012 31RLTS Pinnacle has a factory ceiling fan: Two pull chains on it, for the fan and the light. No wall switches.

This weekend I will start to look at ceiling fans. I suppose that I just need to be sure that the ceiling can handle the weight, maybe have to add support?
