There is a 2" and 3" downrod included when purchased. Hunter does offer both 60" and 72" downrods which are sold as separate items. In the new bronze finish to match the fan, 60" is Model 26046 and 72" is Model 26047.

You don't need the downrod, but it is not completely flush. The motor housing hangs down about 5 inches off the ceiling.

Hello! Downrods often do not interchange between companies due to size and threading. Your best bet would be to buy a new downrod to ensure compatibility. If there is anything else we can help with, please let us know! Lighting and Locks 1-800-334-5804

Hi Jeannie,Thanks for the question. Yes, absolutely. This great fan comes with (2) downrods. They are 3.5" and 6" respectively. You can also get a longer downrod (to be purchased separately) anywhere from 12" all the way up to 72" depending on your needs. We hope this helps Jeannie. If you need anything else, please call one of our awesome experts.

A 24" downrod is available with this fan seperately, but does match the finish. It does come with a remote control, but can't reverse from any control as it already has a switch on the motor housing for reverse.

On page 3 of the instruction manual, under the heading Mounting Options: Note: You may need a longer downrod to maintain proper blade clearance when installing on a steep, sloped ceiling. Longer downrods are available from your Minka-Aire dealer. (Figure 3 shows an angled ceiling mounting)

There were two downrods in the box. According to the instruction manual one is a "standard downrod" and the other is a "minimum length downrod (for close to ceiling mounting only)". I'm sorry but I cannot tell you what the size of the standard one is because we discarded it. The fan is now installed so I measured the exposed space of the minimum length downrod and it is two inches. The instruction manual does not give length specs for either downrod.

Yes, this fan can be mounted on a sloped ceiling with the use of an optional longer downrod. Hunter fans come with a standard downrod for typical installations (approx. 3 inches). For higher or angled ceilings, you can add an optional longer downrod. Optional longer downrods are available from any Lowes, Home Depot or similar store and on Amazon.com. They are available in 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, 60 and 72 inch lengths. Please contact us directly for info about shipping to Canada.

I don't want to confuse you but this fan comes in two distinct models. This model is designed for tall ceilings which is why it comes with two sizes of down rods. But there is another model (more sturdy and solid) which is for regular-sized ceilings. This model (as you know) is the: Minka-Aire F517. The other model is the "hugger" type with a wide base: Minka-Aire F519. Both models come in different colors and two blade widths of 44" and 52". Hope this helps! ;-)

Hi Triloron,Thanks for the question. We're not sure what that reviewer meant, but the shortest downrod you can use is 3 1/2" and is included. As far as ceiling height requirements, this fan requires a minimum ceiling height of at least 92.5" in order to meet building codes. If your ceiling is lower than 92.5" then you may consider a different fan, especially because this fan cannot be flushmounted. We hope this helps.Triloron, if you have any other questions, or would like to place an order, please reach out to one of our awesome experts.

I am not sure what you mean by a downrod. I bought this fan because it is a ceiling-hugger model, which is how it is installed.

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.

I believe it came with a short & long... Not sure, we have about a 4" rod on ours. The base is about 2-3" & then rod about 4". FYI you cannot add a light kit. We didn't find out until we installed the fan.
