can this be flush mounted or do you have to use the down rod?

The fan comes with two rods and I believe that you have to use one of the rods to install.

We haven't installed yet, but the manufacturers description says it can be flush mounted.

Is there a way to mount this fan on the side of a beam? Perhaps with clamps, etc? And using the 12" down rod? Txs

No, I'm sorry it is not able to be flush mounted. It was designed to be hung as a pendant.

Only if you welded a piece of square tubing on it, it's built to mount flush. Wouldn't take much to adapt, good idea! I may just make one like that now.

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.

Hi Robert,Thanks for the question. Unfortunately, this fan cannot be flushmounted. The smallest downrod available is included, and that's 3.5" We hope this helps. Robert, if you have any other questions, or would like to place an order, please reach out to 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

Hello! This can be mounted using the standard ceiling box. If you need it flush or for a sloped ceiling, there are adapters for that. If there is anything else we can help with, please let us know! Better Living Store 1-800-334-5804

The product 5HS42RB can be a flush mount fixture. It comes with a flush mount adapter. It also comes with a 4" downrod and has the height of 13".

I could not find anything in the instructions that mentioned a flush mount or how to mount the unit flush (against the ceiling) so I used the shortest drop rod.My ceiling height in the small bedroom I installed this unit in would not allow me to use the light kit as I would be bumping my head into it as it would hang too low.The ceiling fan works great without the light kit and looks very nice, but I would have preferred a light that I could have used. Also instructions for installing the fan without the light are not in the supplied instructions, you must get them online, which I found irritating. It's very simple, but it should be included on the instruction sheet.

I flush mounted the one I purchased but because it's builders deluxe I believe the down rod is a different style from the hunter original. I would try searching for a deluxe down rod or call hunter direct. Sorry I can't be more help.

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.

Hi there,Thanks for the question. This fan is a "flushmount only" fan. That means it cannot be installed with a downrod of any kind, and must be flushmounted to the ceiling. We hope this helps!If you have any other questions, or would like to place an order, please reach out to one of our awesome reps.

No it can not. But, if you cut down the extension rod to the minimum length it will actually hang down less than a traditional looking flush mounted fan. What I did is a little bit of trial and error, trimming down the rod a bit at a time until i had it as short as possible. What limits you is the upper "cone" must go on first and then you must hook the fan to the ceiling bracket prior to securing the upper cone. A little tricky to try to explain, but I think I got the rod down to 2.5" or so in length.

Yes, we used a 60" down rod with this fan. The one that amazon recommended was perfect- oil rubbed bronze.

I did use the 6" down rod and it works perfect, this is A very good fan and looks great. do not worry I have used the down rod on many fans in the past

I'm not sure if the flush mount kit works on this model. It comes with two down rods - I installed the fan using the shortest one and it worked out perfectly. With what's included in the kit, you must use one of the two down rods.

Not sure I understand your question but we mounted our on the shortest downrod (closest to the ceiling) and it works wonderfully!
