can it be installed without a downrod?

I have two of these, one I installed with a down rod and the other I did not. So far I have not had any issues w/ either of them but I understand the air flow might be better if you install the down rod.

Yes! I did it in my house a few weeks ago. There are instructions both ways.

Yes you can. This bike mount only works on bikes with Thin Downtube. if yours it's thicker, it will not work.

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 didn't have to remove anything to install this hitch. The instructions recommended dropping the tailpipe but I managed just fine without moving or removing anything. If you're planning on also adding a light kit you will have to remove some panels inside the stow well to get to the tail lights.,

They claim that in the manual, but I just installed a quite similar Minka Aire today that made the same claim, and installed the cover with the 3.5" downrod. It just makes it difficult (not much working room) to do the electrical connections, and you'll need a very short screwdriver to attach the ceiling cover. Its a bit of a pain, but worth it, as its not pretty w/o that cover plate.

not from the factory, no. There are mods available that are easy to instal, or you can have one put in. It will not affect any of the performance.

I did not installed with any drop down rod.At my home it is only manage through the electronic remote control. But let me tell you that this is the best product of its kind ever. It is so silent! and air runs so smoothly!!!. I have it at my master bedroom and help us rest better. I definitively want to get another one for the other bedroom.

Hello, This fan is a flush mount fan only, and would not come with a downrod. If you have any other questions please let us know. Thank You Del Mar Fans & Lighting

If I understand correctly what you are asking, the answer is yes. I did not use a down rod on mine because it is a 9 foot patio ceiling. But there is a cap that covers the wiring and screws into the ceiling that I believe the down rod has to connect to.

No, if you need to just use a shorter downrod, Mine (have 2) are mounted on an outdoor deck roof that is only 8'.

no, it comes with a down rod that is required for installation, there is only an option for a longer one.

Only if you want it to be flush mounted. The fan itself can install regularly without the kit.

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.

I am not sure why it says that the down rod is sold separately. There is a 3.5" and 6" down rod included with the fan. If you need a longer down rod than what is included, it needs to be 3/4" diameter. I recommend getting a Minka Aire down rod to ensure that it matches the finish.

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.

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. Not only do they know everything, they're also literally sitting right next to their phones right now :)Hansen Wholesale1-800-201-1193

Unfortunately my husband is unsure- he cut ours since we did not meet a down rod. Sorry we are of no help.
