can you install with a downrod or does it have to be flush mounted? TIA

It is a "flush mount" which is why I ordered this particular style; however Hunter does have the other style with "down rod".

I do not believe it can be completely flush mounted, as I believe you have to retain the mounting "base" that bolts to the ceiling, and the rod serves as the only connection from that "base" to the fan motor unit. However, you can cut the rod to any length you'd like.

It is not designed for flush mount, depending on what type of vehicle you are trying to install it is possible however it will take some skill to mold it in. It is designed to be mounted like a liscense plate mount camera

I could not find anything in the instructions that mentioned a flush mount or how to mount the unit flush (against the ceiling) so I used the shortest drop rod. My ceiling height in the small bedroom I installed this unit in would not allow me to use the light kit as I would be bumping my head into it as it would hang too low. The ceiling fan works great without the light kit and looks very nice, but I would have preferred a light that I could have used. Also instructions for installing the fan without the light are not in the supplied instructions, you must get them online, which I found irritating. It's very simple, but it should be included on the instruction sheet.

Yes, it can be flush mounted however I did not. I installed in an electronics box.

I believe it can be mounted either way. We did an undermount when installing new granite.

This is what I want to know as well. Our ceiling slants so need to know if the included 6" rod will be enough to allow for clearance. If I need an additional downrod can someone post a link? Are downrods universal or must I buy a specific one for thin Minka Aire F1000 model? Thanks.

No, it's flush mount. I used toggle bolts. You could do a make shift mount out of heavy gage wire I guess.

We haven't installed yet, but the manufacturers description says it can be flush mounted.

This fan is not a flush mount fan. You can use a down rod with it. We used a 12" down rod. We've been very happy with this fan.

Hi Robert,Thanks for the question. Unfortunately, this fan cannot be flushmounted. The smallest downrod available is included, and that's 3.5" We hope this helps. Robert, if you have any other questions, or would like to place an order, please reach out to one of our awesome experts. Not only do they know everything, they're also literally sitting right next to their phones right now :)Hansen Wholesale1-800-201-1193

A downrod or in this a case, a 2" pipe, threaded on both ends. The mount will split apart to allow any size downpipe for custom installs.

Just checked the instructions. Can only be mounted with the normal downrod or an extended downrod.

I think you need the downrod but the guy who installed mine cut it to the right length. You can also buy other sizes of downrods for $10 or so at Home Depot

My radio is flush mounted but with the bracket that comes with the radio to install on top of a console or something is much easier to remove and install. One minute to remove/install.

Yes it flush mounts. Looks great, but it comes with a special bulb, and it's not a soft light, but yes, it's a flush mount
