Will this fan work on a sloped ceiling??

I checked with my husband, who actually installed the fan. Basically he said that the issue would be getting the right ceiling mount kit, one that would compensate for the sloped ceiling. Without knowing what kind of sloped ceiling you have (gently sloped? cathedral ceiling?), it's difficult to be more specific than that. Basically, I think any fan can be installed on any ceiling if you have the correct mounting kit. Ceiling fans need a lot of support and there are many ways to compensate if your ceiling is problematic in any way (such as retrofit ceiling fan "Saf-T-Brace"). I hope this helps somewhat. Good luck!

My ceiling has a bit of a slope. You would still have to install the pan at the top directly on the ceiling. I can see it working. But I think you should checkthis one out with someone in the business. I don't know if there would be enough support for the hanging fan. Janie, I think if you called a electrician, hemight be more help. Sorry I couldn't be more help.Penny

I recently installed mine on a sloped ceiling and it works wonderfully. No problems at all. It was easy to install and is easy to use. I often hang several clothes on the rods and have never found the weight issue to be a problem. As long as the unit is installed square with itself, the slope of the ceiling does not matter.

Yes it will. I don't know if you have access to any air conditioning whether it be down stairs or what, but by placing the fan toward the bedroom it will draw the cooler air up to the room. I have 2 fans of these to keep a 3 BR 1 1/2 bath cool in high humidity and high heat. I LOVE mine!!!!!!. They are not noisy either, but you can change the fan speed to what is comfortable for you. I wish you the best. I gave these fans a 5 star and will buy again. God Bless!

Andrew, my ceiling is sloped and it is 11-ft where we put the ceiling fan. It only comes with a short down rod. I did purchase a longer down rod from a local distributor. I think it is 2 ft, but I can't remember exactly. It was under $20. The fan is great. Our electrician used everything that came with the fan even with the ceiling sloped and it works perfect. Only have to purchase a longer down rod. You must get the casablanca down rod. The others from the big box stores will not work properly. Hope this helps.

Our's is mounted on a flat ceiling but my understanding is that they can be mound on a sloped ceiling as well.

I think as long as the ceiling is flat and level where the stand is going to be, it should not matter if it is sloped. I would not place the top of the stand on the bend of the slope.

I don't think this type of fan should be used for a high ceiling. We have a slanted high ceiling and this fan is too small. I put this fan by an ac vent so it would circulate the air. It is perfect for what we expected. Ceiling is also low. Remember blades are small. I hope this helps.

While I have not installed it on an inclined ceiling, I am sure that it will work and that the trim around the install will work just as well. I do not believe that it matters if you use it for a hanging light or a suspended chandelier it should work fine.

Yes, it will tilt downward, but not very much, and it will stay that way. It will, however, tilt upward facing the ceiling. I love this fan, it's small and powerful!

Hi Raegan Isaac, thanks for the question. This fan requires a minimum ceiling height of at least 96.76" in order to meet building codes. If your ceiling is lower than 96.76" (at 7.5 feet you're at 90 inches) then you may need to add a flushmount adapter. If you cannot find what you need to make this fan work in your room, please give us a call so we can check to see if there are any further alternatives. Our experts will know exactly what to do. Oh, and they're sitting right next to their phones right now :) Hansen Wholesale 1-800-201-1193

The height should not be a problem, but I am not sure if the slope would be a problem. 13 degrees is not much; maybe making a wedge shaped block (covered in something to prevent shifting) to fill in the gap might make it work for you. If you can find a phone number to call the manufacturer, they might have an alternative solution. On a level ceiling the pole works great. The pricing is best through Amazon. Good Luck.

Yes, but unless you need to use a low profile fan due to ceiling height restrictions----don't. Based on previous experience, low profile fans don't move as much air as regular mount fans. I own rental properties and have been pleased with the Hunter brand of fans in general.

It wont work on a slanted ceiling. My ceiling is textured but the texture is flattened (I think its called knockdown) and it works fine. I would guess that if the ceiling texture is very coarse that it might damage the texturing. You can adjust the pressure that the spring puts on the ceiling by shortening the PVC pipe that connects to the spring.

If you are careful during installation and follow directions, it should be fine on a slightly sloped ceiling.

Sure, but you might want to put a speed control on ..it pulls a lot of air..might be a little noisy too unless you mount it above the ceiling

I am looking at my fan right now. It is obvious that if it were mounted on a sloping ceiling that sloped more than a tiny amount- say 5 degrees, the fan blades would hit the ceiling. You could, of course, mount it on a rod that dropped from the ceiling, but the rod would likely sway as the blades of the fan start to spin. Thus, you would have to brace the rod somehow, but doing so would ruin the aesthetics of the fan. The only solution I can think of would be to have a carpenter install a beam near the apex of the roof- kind of like a tie rod-- and mount your fan to that.

Yes, it has the standard ceiling-fan "ball mount" system that would let it work on an angled ceiling. Not sure what the max angle is, but as long as your definition of "slightly" is reasonable you should be fine.
