Want to install a ceiling fan, dropped from a 15' peak in the ceiling to replace decorate light fixture. Can this be mounted with a drop pole?

Nope. It mounts with a U shaped bracket, which the motor cover would screw onto .

My ceilings Is only 8 ft tall. Does this look okay? How far are the blades from 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, as long as you meet the air space requirements. This would be from top of fan blades to ceiling and blade tip to ceiling.It would also require a longer down rod.

By the time you take into account the light fixture and the drop bar, yes it probably is. We have high, slanted ceilings so it wasn't a problem for us. I don't remember if you could flush-mount this fan or not. If you can, that would probably take around 8 inches off.

It can not be installed without a down rod, if that is what you are asking. My fan only had one down rod included with it. I didn't use it because I purchased a 4 ft. rod for my cathedral ceiling. As I recall the one that was included was about 6 inches long. I am very pleased with the look and performance of the fan. The only change I made was to buy white glass globes to replace the original because I felt they were too dark.

A short and medium rod and the standard ceiling fan hanging mount and cover. If you want more than about 12" of drop you'll need to buy I longer rod. It's a nice fan.

I don't think this is possible. I have the smallest down rod and the top of the fan hangs 5 1/2 inches from the ceiling. It is a beautiful fan but I would not try to flush mount it. I often try to make things work and I could see getting a rod that is an inch or so shorter but that is as far as I would go.

Thank you for the question. It all depends on the quality of the tiles themselves. Some drop-ceiling tiles are cheaper and thinner than others, and those would not be able to support this recessed light. However if the tiles are thick and high quality, you won't need additional support. Alan Globe Electric

Sorry, I don't think this would work. The stem is made to come straight out of the canopy, and the way the two parts join is fairly rigid. There's enough "give" that you could bump the light a little and it would move slightly, but not enough that you could mount the canopy flush with the ceiling and have the lamp hang straight down.

No it can not. But, if you cut down the extension rod to the minimum length it will actually hang down less than a traditional looking flush mounted fan. What I did is a little bit of trial and error, trimming down the rod a bit at a time until i had it as short as possible. What limits you is the upper "cone" must go on first and then you must hook the fan to the ceiling bracket prior to securing the upper cone. A little tricky to try to explain, but I think I got the rod down to 2.5" or so in length.

I attached to the wood framing in the ceiling. I doubt a drop ceiling tile will hold the weight of the mount and projector.

Mount it from a pole attached to the ceiling above rather than a pole mounted from the ground/base unit as seen in the picture. Just reverse the mounting from above...

Hello! The fan can take up to a 29 degree slope. After that, you'll need to actually get an adapter, the A245-BN, which goes into the ceiling in combination with a regular downrod. If there is anything else we can help with, let us know! Lighting and Locks - 1-800-334-5804

Jeffrey, with the ceiling mount the fan would hang down about 15 inches to the bottom of the light fixture plus the added hanging chains. You would only have 6'4". If it was to hang over a dining table it would work, but anywhere else your taller friends and family might get a cheap haircut. Or at least bump their heads. You might want to consider a wall mount fan. I saw one at a lighting store that looked antique and was a antique copper color. Hope this helps

No. It should work just fine, particularly with a cathedral ceiling. Make sure to order the extension pole for the ceiling attachment. Also, we were missing several components to the fan when it was delivered including the light attachment and the remote control. So, maybe contact the seller prior to purchasing.

We mounted it on hangers. Mounting on ceiling May need an electrician to do the task. Easier to mont on hangers . Anyway, let us know whether it can be done. So far have not heard anyone doing it.

Hi Laura, We put it in a Drop Ceiling and had to make a cover for the top of it, all the wiring comes out the top. It would not look finished if you did not mount inside the dry wall. I recommend getting it professional installed.Teri H
