Do I have to use a down rod for this fan, and if so what is the smallest I can use.

Fan comes with its down rod. Its about 20 cm long. If you need to get the fan to a lower hight, then you need to buy the down rod extension separately.

It comes with a small down rod about 4 inches long. You need to use it to have a minimum fan-tip to ceiling clearance of 1 foot for unrestricted air flow.

It comes with 4.5" down rod.you can shorten it by 2" for a total of 2.5" that would be the max I would go .hope this helps

Hi Nicholas, thanks for the question. Unfortunately, this fan cannot be flushmounted. However, and this may help you, the smallest downrod is only 3.5" inches, so that may help some. We hope this answers your question. Nicholas, if you need anything else, please reach out to one of our awesome experts because they know everything. Also, they just happen to be sitting right next to their phones right now :)Hansen Wholesale1-800-201-1193

Not fond of this fan and don't know about the down rod. A better fan, Hunter Summer Breeze, does not come with light kit, but any brand light kit can be added. I installed 5 of these, replacing all fans. The only one I left was this 5 minute fan, only because I needed the ceiling lugt.

I haven't installed my fan yet. However I am told that you are purchase from Hunter down rods of different lengths

It did come with a very short down rod. It still needs a small flat space to mount it. Slightly larger than the electrical box as I recall. Just not as big of a flat space as some fans. Longer down rods can be purchased at any home improvement store for not much money.

Regina, this fan comes with two downrods. One is 6", the other is 4.5". One of the downrods must be used for the fan mount. Unfortunately, it cannot be mounted flush without a downrod.http://www.minkaaire.net/printpdf/12585

We recommending calling us for the best recommendation. It's possible to turn the fan on/off with a remote control (sold separately). Here is the model number for that: 99019 We hope this helps!

Yes, a 6" downrod comes with the fan, but I have vaulted ceilings, so I had to purchase a 12" at my local homestore. It was not expensive.

You may be able to find a shorter downrod, but i think you need it. The fan sits pretty close to the ceiling as is, with the included downrod. Good luck

Hello P. Kumar, Thank you for your inquiry. The Minka Aire F900-BCW ceiling fan comes with a 3.5" and 16" downrod. You may purchase longer downrods if necessary separately. They go by different part numbers depending on the size/finish. What is your ceiling height in the room you will be placing this in? We will suggest the down-rod that best suits this area to get the maximum air flow for your ceiling height and the fan. Thank you.

The down rod should be compatible with all ceiling fans. If u go to Lowes or home Depot they sell only one type of down rod it is the length of the rod that you can get in different sizes

You have to order a down rod separately. There are different lengths available.

This is a ceiling hugger fan and must be flush mounted. The mounting is less than 10" in diameter accoring to my eyeball assessment. It cannot be mounted with a downrod.

We would recommend ordering a down-rod from the same manufacture to guarantee compatibility. Also, the finish of the down-rod from Minka Aire will match exactly to the fan.

I used a 1' rod on this fan because I installed it on a sloping cathedral ceiling. Other lengths of rods are also available.

I couldn't find a down rod in the Tuscan Gold finish at either Home Depot or Lowe's so I picked out the closest match. I would recommend taking the 3" down rod that came with the fan to the store and go with the closest color.

It depends on the pitch...but you would probably want a downrod. It only handle a few inches lower. We have a vaulted ceiling and bought a 12 inch down rod (different fan).
