Hunter Fan Company has announced a new Wi-Fi-enabled ceiling fan that allows users to control the fans that are on in their house through their smartphone.

The fan also boasts support for Apple's HomeKit, meaning that it will be able to communicate with other connected devices and Internet of Things products in the household.

"Our ceaseless innovation is why Hunter Fan is the industry leader, and these new Wi-Fi enabled fans, with added support for Apple HomeKit, are a testament to our heritage of progress and originality," said Hunter Fan CEO John Alexander in a statement. "They're beautiful, affordable, high quality pieces of decor that bring state-of-the-art Wi-Fi technology where it might not be expected: the ceiling fan."

Through HomeKit, users will be able to control fans not only using the app, but also through Siri voice control on their iDevices and Apple Watch. Users are also able to set the system to work through certain triggers. For example, if a smoke alarm detects smoke, the fans can turn on to help disperse the smoke.

Hunter Fan is offering two different models of connected fan, including the Symphony and the Signal. The Symphony offers a modern white design and costs $329, while the Signal offers reversible wood-finish blades and costs $379. Both will be available in the spring.
