SOURCE: Can we use old remote for the new fan
It is possible. Unless you know a bit of electronics, it would be difficult to do the conversion. You have to study the control circuitry of the old and new ceiling fan. You are lucky if it is a pin-to-pin direct conversion. An electronics techinician at your location can do it easily...I guess.
SOURCE: Power went out and now ceiling fan won't work
It is quite likely that the unit has an internal surge supressor/fuse that blew when the power went out. Tou will need to open the housing to the fan motor and inspect the fuse. Once you get the fan working, the remote will work just fine.
If the problem is the remote itself, then it is possible, though highly unlikely that the remote code has been wiped out that connects the remote with the receiver on the main unit. If so, hopefully there are reset/reprogramming instructions in the manual.
SOURCE: the remote control turns the ceiling fan on and
Unfortunately, you either have a faulty reciever or remote. A replacement will cost $30-$40 at homedepot
. And it doesn't matter which is faulty because you can't purchase them seperately anyhow.

SOURCE: I need a remote
You can buy a remote kit at most electric or home improvement stores. It will come with instructions and needs to have the receiver installed in the canopy of the fan itself. They usually have dimmers for the lights on them, so do not use CFL bulbs in the fixture. Lowes sells one made by Harbor Breeze for about $30-$40. Good luck.

SOURCE: I have a Hampton Bay ceil fan model # AC-552
Hampton Bay is an exclusive brand of Home Depot. They would be the ones to help you with that. BUT .. from my experience I would say that the cost and trouble of getting and replacing the motor in that fan would be easilly rivalled by the cost and ease of buying and installing a new fan all together.
