GE Z-wave Fan Switches Missing Speed Controls

bradent — Thu, 11 Dec 2025 01:38:34 GMT

My GE Z-Wave fan switches used to be controllable by speed with Google Home. I’m running SmartThings v3 Hub as my home automation controller and ST shows the speed options as expected. However, Google Home has begun only showing Off/On as the only option on all of my fans. I’d like to restore the variable speed option to Google Home if possible. I’ve tried unlinking and relinking the switches to the SmartThings hub to no avail. Any suggestions on what I may be overlooking? #smartthings #geswitches #jasco #missingoptions

Cross posted this to Reddit and someone suggested the philh30 GE drivers, they absolutely fixed my issue with both Alexa and Google Home. I can now control my fans with percentages or “Low/Mid/High” on Alexa. Google Home only recognizes percentages and “Low/High”, but I can deal with that. Several years of frustration wiped clean by a Reddit thread!. To get the fix follow this thread.

And scroll down to select the “Channel Invitation” link. It should walk you through installing the driver to your ST Hub. Hope this helps others with the same issue.
