Do I need a Down Rod?

Some of the fans may be pictured with longer down rods. However, unless otherwise stated, the standard length down rod included with your fan is 3 inches.

For maximum cooling, it is most efficient to have the blades 8 to 9 feet above the floor. It is recommended to use an Hunter Ceiling Fan Extension Down rod which lowers your ceiling fan to this level above the floor.

Hunter ceiling fans use our 3/4” Extension Down Rods for maximum Stability and Wobble-Free performance. Most other brands of ceiling fans use 1/2” down rods.

A general formula for calculating down rod length for your Hunter Ceiling Fan is: ceiling height in feet minus 9' = down rod length. This formula is based on the fan-to-floor distance of 8 feet plus 1 foot for the dimension of the fan. So if your ceiling height is 12 feet, you need a 3 foot down rod for your ceiling fan in order to properly position the ceiling fan 8 feet from the floor.

Do you need a Angle Mount for Vaulted Ceiling Installation?

Most Hunter Ceiling Fans have unique Three Position Mounting Systems. This canopy may be described as Installer’s Choice®, WobbleFree™, EasyHang, and HandsFree™ or Three Position Mounting System.

This allows you to mount your Hunter Ceiling Fan flush-to-ceiling for extra clearance, standard ceiling fan hanging, or with a ceiling fan extension down rod on Vaulted Ceilings with a angle up to 34°!

See illustration below of the Hunter Fan Three Position Mounting System:

In most cases, the canopy which comes with your fan will be all that you need if you are mounting your fan on the Slope of your Vault. However, if your ceiling angle is especially steep and exceeds 34° , you should purchase a Hunter Ceiling Fan Angle Mount Accessory which will accommodate up to 45° angles.The angle will increase as your installation moves closer to the Peak of your vault.
