how long is the downrod? I have a high ceiling- Is it possible to buy an extension? How do you turn it on if you do not have a remote? Wall?

It comes with a very short down rod (for shorter than normal ceilings) and a standard (approximately 3") for normal height (8') down rod. The instructions state that a longer down rod may be purchased. I would look on Casablanca.com to see what options are available.

Hi Scott. The unit comes with a small full-function remote that is very helpful with setting it up. My unit came with a 6-foot VGA cable and a 6-foot power cable (standard computer-type). I bought a 30-foot RCA video cable at Radio Shack which was more suitable for the ceiling mounting which I used. The unit works flawlessly mounted upside down from across the room.

This required plugging into the wall, as all the 10" ones I have seen. Mine came with a remote.

You don't need the downrod, but it is not completely flush. The motor housing hangs down about 5 inches off the ceiling.

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.

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.

No extension rod. Strictly for ceiling hugger installation. Buy a different model fan that uses an extension rod.

My remote us not wired into the wall. I have it so I can use like a TV remote. Hope this answer your question. The fan is beautiful.

There isn't really an easy way to run an extension. It is designed to have the top plate mount directly to an electrical box, then the light dangles on cables below that. The light comes with 4 adjustable cables, I used about half of the available length for my 9' ceilings.

More distance from ceiling better . it is recommended at least 3'. Mine is 4' and works great

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.

We have 9 ft ceilings and cut the downrod to 10 inches. Looks great. The up light is delicate. We would suggest at least 3' downrod.

Hi... I didn't have to buy one, but there is a formula based on ceiling height. I would suggest Googling the question based on your ceiling height. Sorry I don't have a specific answer for you.

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. Not only do they know everything, they'll also be able to give you the best price over the phone.

We installed it under a shed roof over our patio. It's about 10 feet high at the mount point. The down rod that comes with the fan is only about 4-5 " long. Went to home depot because they carry Hunter down rods. However, they didn't have anything that was close in color. Went to Lowes - they have Harbor Breeze down rods. Surprisingly, they had a 12" Harbor Breeze down rod that matched perfectly. Also had various sizes if you need one longer. No problem with the substitution of brands.

Ooh, that's tough. The pole definitely won't extend to 12ft - maybe 10 or so. As it's pressure mounted, you'd have to build something to decrease that distance. Maybe something like a small stage on the floor? That or a block of some type on the ceiling though it would be hard to make it stable enough...

I had the same concern, wanting to mount this fan in a room with 8 foot ceilings. You cannot remove or shorten the downrod, it is needed for the clearance of the fan blades from the ceiling.but because the fan blades are mounted on the top of the motor you still have enough height from the floor. I have had this fan in operation for five months and really like it. It makes almost no noise.
