Since I am going to install this fan myself, I am concerned about the transmitter/receiver size and the problem it creates during installation.

Not sure what problems you are concerned about? When I installed two fans in my house each transmitter was programmed to a single fan. It was simply install and use the transmitter. I have vaulted ceilings over 15' high I used a 48" extension and did not have any issues with the transmitter or receiver on the fan.

There is no size problem with the installation of these components with this fan. My problem was getting two fans that were defective and had a costant ticking when they ran that could not be corrected. All Hunter fans are now made in China and the quality is not what it used to be.W. Wogee

I had no problem with that. I believe it goes in one way if you have trouble flip it around. I put two of these in and don't remember it being a big deal.

Not a problem, like all of these fans this one is heavy so the only install issue is getting it on the hook so you can do the wires. Any medium strength guy should be able to do it.

I had no issue with the transmitter/receiver size. That fit well without issue. The issue is that this fan is heavy and you will need an assistant, or at least I did. I used a 48 inch down tube due to the height of our room. Wiring was straight forward. Great fan, almost silent. It has run no-stop for 6 plus years. Hope that helps. Will replace it with the same fan if available.

Our fan was put in a two story foyer so I actually rented scaffolding and had an electrician install the fan and wire. I don't think that there was any problem for the electrician and the size of the remote and reciver are not an issue. He installed the fan so a light could be added and controlled later. Frankly, I would recommend an electrician install for you unless you are a pretty good 'wire twister'. We love the fan...very quiet. We run it constantly and it is on a 5 foot drop pole...no movement ...no noise. definitely pleased with the fan!

Make sure it's aligned properly. Forcing plugs that small could result in damage and could make alignment problematic. Had no problems with mine and the fan is terrific.

There are two styles of receivers that I have had, one is a white ventilated plastic box that is about 2x3x1" (rough dimensions) that mounts insidethe cover where the fan mounts to the ceiling, the other is a white plastic ring that mounts as part of the base.

I think another person tried to mount this and had issues with the receiver not sitting well.

I assume you are talking about the reciever that goes above the fan itself. Are you using all the original parts from the manufacturing and not the previous ones? It's a tight fit but I was able to squeeze it in. Also, you may want to cut out any excess wiring as that will also interfere. If all else fails, try to find a space outside where u can hide it under a cover. It's just a remote sensor so it can be placed anywhere as long as the wiring is connected. Speaking of which, I need to redo mine sometime. Good luck.

No, I dont think so. I bought this and the white one with 3 settings and the receivers are exactly the same size. they surprisingly fit into my fan though...its a small casing and I was surprised that was just right.

I have no idea but, I did call customer service regarding my wiring situation, and they gave me a configuration which made the device work perfectly. My guess, the Fan only feature would not work.

The wire unit coming out of the fan can be attached one of TWO ways. Try to switch it around. One of them has to fit. Outside chance the MFR sent the wrong AC plug. Good luck.

It depends on how the original receiver was installed in the fan. Mine was installed in the cover that sat flush against the roof I have also seen them installed above the fan in the ceiling. It is very simple to install depending on the location.

No problem at all. I think the problem with the other customer was installation. Make sure you follow the directions. It's a good quality fan, you won't be disappointed.

The receiver (yellow with wires) will be inside the fan housing and the transmitter (White thing) should have dip switches in the same order

You need to improvise your own installation. How can the manufacturer anticipate all of the installation variations? If you can't figure it out, hire someone to do the installation for you.

Your best option would be to measure your intended install space and compare it to the size of this box. Make sure to take into account space required for wiring.

It wasn't designed to fit in that manner. I would not try it. See if you can find smaller fan.

if installed properly its very quiet inside, the fan exiting outside will be louder due to wind noise.

A bigger concern for me is that you need to treat the receiver like a subwoofer: you certainly don't want it in a component cabinet with all your other gear.

I have those same dimensions, though, in a big wooden box. It's overkill definitely but works really well. I have no ventilation issues at all. I did need to put two HUGE intake ports in though, as there is A LOT of negative pressure. Since you're using a tent you should make sure you can add more intakes if needed. Don't burn your fan out. And make sure you can support the sides of your tent because they will suck in like crazy.
