title: Fan Entity
sidebar_label: Fan
---
A fan entity is a device that controls the different vectors of your fan such as speed, direction and oscillation. Derive enitity platforms from ['homeassistant.components.fan.FanDevice'](https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant/blob/dev/homeassistant/components/fan/__init__.py).
## Properties
> Properties should always only return information from memory and not do I/O (like network requests). Implement `update()` or `async_update()` to fetch data.
| Name | Type | Default | Description
| ---- | ---- | ------- | -----------
| current_direction | str | None | Return the current direction of the fan |
|is_on| boolean | None |Return true if the entity is on |
| speed | str | None | Return the current speed |
| speed_list | list | None| Get the list of available speeds |
| state_attributes | dict | None | Return optional state attributes |
| supported_features | int | None | Flag supported features |
## Supported Features
| Constant | Description |
|----------|--------------------------------------|
| 'SUPPORT_DIRECTION' | The fan supports changing the direction of it.
| 'SUPPORT_SET_SPEED' | The fan supports setting the speed.
| 'SUPPORT_OSCILLATE' | The fan supports oscillation.
## Methods
### Set direction
Only implement this method if the flag `SUPPORT_DIRECTION` is set.
```python
class FanEntity(ToggleEntity):
# Implement one of these methods.
def set_direction(self, direction: str) -> None:
"""Set the direction of the fan."""
async def async_set_direction(self, direction: str):
"""Set the direction of the fan."""
```
### Set speed
Only implement this method if the flag `SUPPORT_SET_SPEED` is set.
```python
class FanEntity(ToggleEntity):
# Implement one of these methods.
def set_speed(self, speed: str) -> None:
"""Set the speed of the fan."""
async def async_set_speed(self, speed: str):
"""Set the speed of the fan."""
```
### Turn on
```python
class FanEntity(ToggleEntity):
# Implement one of these methods.
def turn_on(self, speed: str = None, **kwargs) -> None:
"""Turn on the fan."""
async def async_turn_on(self, speed: str = None, **kwargs):
"""Turn on the fan."""
```
### Oscillate
Only implement this method if the flag `SUPPORT_OSCILLATE` is set.
```python
class FanEntity(ToggleEntity):
# Implement one of these methods.
def oscillate(self, oscillating: bool) -> None:
"""Oscillate the fan."""
def async_oscillate(self, oscillating: bool):
"""Oscillate the fan."""
```
