We have a 8 feet low ceiling. My questions - 1.How low does it hang from ceiling to tip of the light? 2.Can it be flush mount? 3.Noisy? Airflow?

1. The specs probably give exact measures. Mine is about 14 to 15 inches from light to ceiling. 2. Not sure if there is an optional shorter extension. 3. It fairly quiet and air flow is fine. It is a higher quality fan.

I had two of these fans installed on normal height ceilings (8 ft.) using the enclosed 3 inch down rod. The bottom of the lights are 6' 5" above the floor. As I am 6 ft. tall they work fine for me. Of course they can be mounted without a down rod, gaining 3 inches, or with a longer down rod. I had them installed by an electrician who told me they have never had a problem with a hunter fan. I am pleased with the two that I have.

I put 3 of these fans in house in Florida with 12 ft ceilings and used a 2 ft downrod. (FYI - best fans ever. No wobble becuz the downrod end is triangular insuring it's stability!) I know I cut off a lot of extra wire but can't guaranty the total wire was longer than 6 ft. Recommend you hit up the Hunter Fan people. They're pretty good at getting back to me when I had questions about compatible light fixtures for certain fans. Link to customer service here. http://www.hunterfan.com/Support/Contact-Us/

You could flush mount it, but looking at mine (and using a measuring tape), it looks like the OVERALL drop from ceiling to the decorative finial on the bottom, would be about 18"-23", but the fan blades would only drop about 10-13" from the ceiling, so the "blade danger" wouldn't be much issue. I think you will be totally fine with 8' ceilings, but If you have anyone who is REALLY tall, like 6'4"+ in the home, maybe go with a lower profile fan without the heating element...

The light can hang down from the ceiling as low or as high as you would like. There are three extension pieces of different sizes: You can use one or you can use them all. I don't have the exact dimensions of the pieces but I used only a combination of two of them and it worked perfect for us. I hope I answered your question! Good luck.

I mounted mine to a standard light mounting box made out of plastic. They sell them at home depot/lowes and such. An example on amazon is this: Westinghouse Lighting 0105000 Saf-T-Box, 1-1/2 Inch DeepIt depends on how/where you need to mount it and if you have access to above it in the ceiling or not. I would ask at a local home-improvement store and they will get you the exact box for your needs.

It's about 15 1/2 Inches from ceiling to bottom of light. I love the look and proformence of these fans. But want to warn you the electrician who hung them,(I have 3,) said they were dogs to hang. He also hung 3 other fans of different styles and makes with no trouble.

Using the shortest drop tube that is supplied with the fan it hangs down 12" to the bottom of the light. Mine is on A 8' ceiling and looks and works great

I have around 10 foot ceilings and the fans drop down between 1 1/2 to 2 ft off ceiling. I have lights that are roughly a foot drop. These are great fans and I bought four with no problems.

Not sure what you mean about flush mount? The fan comes with a stem mounting system that is about four inches long. I think that is probably as close to the ceiling as you can get. I don't see how you could mount it any closer with how the housing is designed.

I do not think fan be flush mounted. Ceiling to bottom of light height is very close to 18inches.

You can do a flush mount. We mounted the fan in our bathroom. Eight foot ceiling and a standard door opens under the fan. Supposedly a down rod would increase air flow, but we did not have that option. The fan did help our humidity problem in a tight shower area.

It cannot be adjusted to be flush with ceiling. We have it on the smallest setting and it is about 6 inches away from ceiling.

Yes, I have it flush mounted without light. Total height is approx 9" from ceiling with flush mount. Light kit is available. It uses two 50-Watt mini-Candelabra halogen bulbs.. We love this extremely quiet fan and it comes with wall plate and switches (4 speeds). High speed will cool a fairly large room. You will not be disappointed. We purchased white to match the ceiling.

It's best to have too much than too little air movement. Not knowing how many lights you have (say 5 600w) with this set up I would go for at least an 8 inch duct fan. Also, get a brand name - they last forever. Hope you get it going :)

Sorry I had to return this item. My ceiling was slightly vaulted and the light was flush mount.

Danielle, if your basement only has a 7 or 8 foot ceiling these lights would not work for you, they hang too low about 12 inches is as close as you can hang them. A flourescent 4 foot light would be a better choice,you can get a surface mount about anywhere. We love our lights and we have them on an outdoor patio and they hang about 12 foot high.
