Was wondering just how long the wires are. I'm looking for a ceiling fan for my very high ceiling (18ft) and would like to use a 72-inch downrod if possible. Thanks.

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

Can't remember exactly how long they were but would guess 60" as I used 36" downrod and cut off alot of wire. You can add wire to lengthen by using butt connectors.

Had my contractor install with 72-inch downrod with no issues. Plenty of wire.

Wires not long enough, we had extra put through 3x36-inch down rods, works and looks good.

The wiring on the fan motor (in the down rod) to the wiring hub is rather long. The wires that go to the power leads are short, therefore you need to bring your power (house power) close in order to make the electrical connection. Hope this helps.

No Cannot connect Several Downrods. Depending on your ceiling height will depend on the size of your downrod. I used a 24 inch downrod on a 11' ceiling and it is a good height. Ceiling Height Downrod Length 9ft. or less standard down rod (3 inches) 10ft. - 11ft. 1 ft. rod or standard if preferred 11ft. - 12ft. 18" - 24" down rod 12ft. - 14ft. 36" down rod 14ft. - 16ft. 48" down rod 16ft. + 72" down rod 17ft. + Custom down rod

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.

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.

Hi Mayra,Thanks for the question. This fan comes with (2) downrods that are 3.5" and 6". You can get an 18" or longer downrod, but it's sold separately. Here are the model numbers:18": DR518-ORB24": DR524-ORBWe hope this helps. Mayra, if you have any other questions, or would like to place an order, please reach out to one of our super handsome experts. Not only do they know everything, they're also literally sitting right next to their phones right now :)Hansen Wholesale1-800-201-1193

The Fan comes with 2 "droop" sizes. One is about 5"s, and the other is about 3"'s. All in all, with the smallest rod, the fan hangs about 5 inches, from the ceiling, to the top of the motor housing. Pretty much a perfect fit, for an 8ft ceiling; unless you are over 6'5 inches tall. P.S. Fan is whisper quiet, and if balanced properly, you won't even notice it's on. Only downside, is the light chain(not pictured), goes through the inside of the bowl (not very appealing), but all in all, I would give this fan, a 5 of 5, compared to what I had!!

Yes, a 6" downrod comes with the fan, but I have vaulted ceilings, so I had to purchase a 12" at my local homestore. It was not expensive.

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.

I believe it was really short...like 3". I needed a 18" & 36" so had to order the downrod. They also have downrods at Lowe's but wanted the finish to match so ordered with the fan. Hope this helps.

It depends on the pitch...but you would probably want a downrod. It only handle a few inches lower. We have a vaulted ceiling and bought a 12 inch down rod (different fan).

This fan comes with short down rod about 3 inches for mounting close to the ceiling, but it has to be mounted with a down rod (two included). If you have a regular flat ceiling, it should work fine. If your ceiling is sloped, you'll need a longer down rod (sold separately).

You have to figure out how far from your ceiling you want the fan mounted. If it's a high ceiling get a longer down rod if it's regulsr height the ones with the fan should be OK.

It depends on whether you have a flat or vaulted ceiling. I would say approx 22 inches on flat ceiling. My fan has a 12 inch extension rod. GREAT FAN and quiet too.

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.

Yes you can. Hunter fans come with a standard downrod for typical installations (approx. 3 inches). For higher or angled ceilings, you can add an optional longer downrod. They are available in 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, 60 and 72 inch lengths.

This fan is supplied with one 3.5" and one 6" downrod. If you need a longer length, you can also purchase them separately. Thanks -Chelsea
