How does this mount to the ceiling? I can't see any good picture online. I was thinking it might be installed with a downrod, but don't see one.

This item normally goes where your existing light goes very simple and easy

Two screws on the screen piece. Make sure at least one screws into stud for secure install. Electrical wire goes through hole and rest is basic wire connection.

It flush mounts. It is gorgeous, the picture does not do it justice. Comes in many pieces, but is worth the effort.

Hello there, If i remember correctly, this is installed with a steel bracket approx about 4-6 inches apart. One important factor i should mention about this product is the coupling of the main unit (the ceiling piece you can see here) with the bracket (the big circle portion at the top). If you'll notice from the last picture, about where the cylinder meets the "dome" for the lighting, you have to hold up the light and attach these onto the bracket. It may not look complicated but it was hard doing it by myself (as the light portion is quite heavy even without the crystal bulbs attached). Be aware you will have to attach the electrical along with holding up the light and finding the holes to the bracket all at the same time! Buy a strand of metal wire to attach through the holes during the process to hold up the light. Additionally, be aware of the hydrogen bulbs you place in the lamp. Make sure you buy lower wattage (and not the big bulky LED energy saving bulbs) as they may/may not fry the little transformer in the light. Hope this helps!

Although manual says you use their downrod, I cut mine in half and installed it and have no problems. I have a 9ft ceiling and didn't want people bumping into it.

You have to figure out how far from your ceiling you want the fan mounted. If it's a high ceiling get a longer down rod if it's regulsr height the ones with the fan should be OK.

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

This looks like a great shade for my modern style house. I am concerned about the view from the bottom as I want to put this on a very high ceiling and no information provided covers this detail. Is it bare (to the bulb/fixture) or is there some sort of diffuser? If so, is it nice? As to fixture hardware to you suggest the recommended pairing off the website? It looks like the max drop would be 3" for base, 15" for rod, 10" for shade = 28 off the ceiling.

Okay J - Thank you so much! I am a visual learner and I had no idea how those metal things attach/clip, whatever and if it is hanging from the ceiling already, I guess it's not for support, but just to: Raise The Curtain if you will. Got it. Thanks

You should be able to mount it on a ceiling. You may have to seal around the mounting base.

Can't remember how I mounted it but it wasn't complicated. The thing is still up and I mounted on an RV!! Good luck.

I wish I could help....I flush mounted mine so I really didn't pay attention to the down rod that came with it. The picture implies a good foot or more but I can't promise you that. Sorry I can't help more.

Mine came with a downrod of about 3 to 4 inches in length, which works great for a level ceiling. The blades are roughly 12 to 14 inches from the actual ceiling surface. However, if you are going to mount it on a vaulted ceiling, how low you want it to hang, plus how much of a pitch your ceiling has would be the determining factor. Hope this helps!

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.

I hung it from my ceiling and it worked fine. The rod wasn't long enough for me but I bought a longer one from the hardware store to get it further from the ceiling.

I've had 4 of these running for about 2 years now, 3 of which run daily for 2-8 hours. But to answer your question, these are designed for low ceilings and the housing mounts flat to ceiling. I had an electrician install mine so I don't know if there is a short rod under that housing. However, common sense tells me that even if there were, and you replaced it with a longer rod, the housing would look unfinished because it is designed to be flush mounted. Just buy a standard fan, they're the same price and you can use any length downrod you want.

It is set up as a standard ceiling install into a ceiling mount. Don't know how you would do that without a lot of work and extra expense.

The fan only comes with a downrod; if you wanted to mount it flush to the ceiling you would have to buy flush mount adapter kit.

Can you mount this on the porch ceiling. I want it to face downwards and can I mount it with a screw as adhesive and Velcro would not hold up after months in 100 degree heat in AZ. I am willing to drill mounting holes in the unit if there is space but is it possible. Thanks

I got the down facing one, not the side facing one and it works well. The field of view was. Too small to mount on 8' ceiling so we put it on the wall facing the door. We put a little piece of foam. From the packaging being it when we mounted it to the wall to get the angle we wanted. It worked pretty well and you can't tell the foam is there and it works great with just 2 screws.
