Worried about this comment using 6" down rod. True? Fan works great, and the light is plenty bright for a bedroom. My only disappointment comes

I bought the extention rod but ended up using the 6 inch down rod. The 6 inch rod and the fact that the fan in on the bottom of the light puts the fan blades about 18' down from the ceiling. Unless you have a really high ceiling 9' plus. You don't need the extention rod.

I installed using the canopy cover on the 6" downrod. The instructions say not to, but there is plenty of room for clearance. You only need a short phillips head screwdriver to fasten the top canopy as a result. Looks great...trying to figure out how to post my pic but doesn't seem to want to let me anywhere. In any case, it can be done.

I couldn't find a down rod in the Tuscan Gold finish at either Home Depot or Lowe's so I picked out the closest match. I would recommend taking the 3" down rod that came with the fan to the store and go with the closest color.

Hello! No matter who sells it, the fan will come with a 3.5 inch downrod and a 6 inch downrod. However, I know for a fact we dance better than 340 Lighting, so you'll want to buy it from us. : ) -Lighting and Locks 1-800-334-5804

This ceiling fan comes with a 3.5 and a 6 inch. Longer down rods in the same finish can be purchased at an added cost.

It can not be installed without a down rod, if that is what you are asking. My fan only had one down rod included with it. I didn't use it because I purchased a 4 ft. rod for my cathedral ceiling. As I recall the one that was included was about 6 inches long. I am very pleased with the look and performance of the fan. The only change I made was to buy white glass globes to replace the original because I felt they were too dark.

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 :)

It would probably work, but all of the rooms in have seen like that use a much longer rod. We will be moving soon to a house with a family room like that and I will be looking for a longer downrod. (Between 3 and 4 feet)

Any spring mounted 6" inch trim/baffle can be used with the fan. There is usually a good selection at your local home improvement store. Stick to plastic, as a bathroom is damp and a metal trim could rust over time if the finish gets nicked. I used a BR30 LED bulb in mine. Works great and doesn't have the sucky light of a CFL. There is no need to swap the trim to use the LED. Only if you want a different look or color trim.

No, the fan would be at an angle and would not operate properly. This fan does not have a rod that extends down. It mounts flush to the ceiling.

It comes with a small down rod about 4 inches long. You need to use it to have a minimum fan-tip to ceiling clearance of 1 foot for unrestricted air flow.

The room (kitchen) where I have the fan is a 12' slanted ceiling. We used the rod. The light/fan looks like it could hang 6 to 8" from the ceiling and have the fan effective. I am "most" happy with the Fanaway! Have had it for almost a year now--Get it....You will love it!

This fan can hang at 14.5" to the bottom of the light. This works on an 8' ceiling and should leave you a 6'7.5" clearance.

From floor to bottom of light fixture is 6'11". Do not have the answer to the down rod question. Fans were hung by an electrician. If there was more than 1 rod size I was unaware.

Hello! The fan comes with all you need to mount it to the ceiling- the brackets, canopy, and down rod. Though the longer down rod pictured is actually for example, it comes with a 3.5" and 6" set of down rods. If there is anything else we can help with, please let us know!
