With the 3" down rod - how low is the fan from ceiling to the bottom of the light kit?

18" is correct. This is for use on a standard ceiling height. For higher ceilings you can use the longer down rods. In my case, although the ceiling is over 10' high, there is an interior 16" beam that runs the length of the ridge, so I used the short down rod and attached the fan to the bottom of the beam. The fan looks great, works great, and as my review states, I really do have two Hunter fans that have been in continuous use for 38 and 36 years.

It hangs 13 inches from the ceiling when using the smallest down rod. Sorry for the late answer.

This fan might be at 8 feet when installed on your ceiling. As the down rod is 6 inches it self . Hope this info will help you with your decision :0)

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.

Andrew, my ceiling is sloped and it is 11-ft where we put the ceiling fan. It only comes with a short down rod. I did purchase a longer down rod from a local distributor. I think it is 2 ft, but I can't remember exactly. It was under $20. The fan is great. Our electrician used everything that came with the fan even with the ceiling sloped and it works perfect. Only have to purchase a longer down rod. You must get the casablanca down rod. The others from the big box stores will not work properly. Hope this helps.

I have a sloped ceiling so mine averages about 29" from the ceiling to the end of the finial. You can obtain different length rods for your fan.

we used an additional 24" pole. We have a cathedral ceiling. So ours is lower ... but I guess it's at least 12 inches or a little more from the ceiling to the bottom of the light.

Hello! There are close-to-ceiling kits available, but they require the shortest down rod that's included in the fan, the 3.5" one, and it won't really be too much shorter with the kit installed than with the shortest down rod. If there is anything else we can help with, please let us know! Lighting and Locks 1-800-334-5804.

Without the light, this fan measure 12.76" from the ceiling to the bottom of the fan using the standard downrod included. If you choose the flush-mount option (also included), it will be 11.51".

The length of the rod, starting at the roof is 10". The total space from ceiling to bottom of the light (drop) is 19".The rod is smaller than what it looks like in the picture.

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.

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.

With the included short rod the distance from ceiling to bottom of fan is roughly 13 in.

According to the specs on the box (we're not in the house to measure it), for a flush mount (no downrod), the overall distance to the fan bottom, measured from the ceiling, is about 10.5", and 8.5" to the blades. Using the included 2.5" downrod, the distance increases to 12.6" and 10.6", respectively. For a light kit, it will depend upon what you buy, as the kit sizes can vary greatly. I hope this is helpful.

I bought the fan year ago. If I remember correctly, you need the downrod to connect the ceiling canopy to the upper fan canopy. Otherwise I don't see how you can connect the 2 parts. I have a low ceiling (8 feet) and the included 3" downrod is just the perfect length for the job.

I used the longer rod and I just measured how low it hangs from the ceiling. It's about 18 inches including the light fixture. Hope this helps.
