How much clearance do you need from walls when mounting from the ceiling inside?

It depends how much you want to swing but I'd say 3-5 feet so your not knocking into the walls

We hang ours about. 12" from ceiling. Don't make it too low or someone might bang their heads on it.

I believe it is best to mount on wall and high to make sure dangerous air isn't hugging ceiling. You know, how smoke is high and they tell you to crawl down low where air isn't so bad. I have mine installed in bedroom by door because if you sleeping you need to know something is wrong. Be safe!

At it's fullest you will be standing on the top rung which is exactly 7' 7" from floor. So that plus your heighest reach. We have 12' ceilings and I'm only 5' tall and I can reach the ceiling. Love the fact that you can raise one side and not the other and get fright up close to the wall.

It would be close probably ok if you set it up so head is between joists. I have plent of clearance with a 8" ceiling and am 6"2 and short legs all upper body I do have to move away from a ceiling fan that hangs down a little more than a foot. It is a great price of equipment though and would highly recommend it if you have the space

Why above a window? Mount it on any wall, preferable an external wall. 7-8' above floor level. And to of the unit to stay 5-6" below the ceiling.

You'll need at least 7 to 8ft for the ceiling. I tried to put it in my basement which was 6 and a half, no good.

I suggest you to place it about 2.5/3.0 feet away from walls. It should be enough... Have a good workout!

I would say no. You will not be able to reach the securement screws if you bury the sides in drywall. If you are able to overcome that issue I would note that these bulbs are very hot when on for a short period of time and I would suggest shielding the ceiling drywall if you are going to raise the unit any closer to the ceiling. I would just use it as it is honestly.

I think you can get close to flush. The stem comes with 2 long pieces and 2 short. We used on short and it's about 9" from ceiling. You can mount without that to get closer.

depends on how thick the wall is. There are vents on the side that you don't want inside the wall. You'd need to talk to a carpenter/contractor about that. You have at most 8" of depth to work with between the face and the vents.

I mounted on the ceiling. If you have the electrical wiring and box I can't see why you could not mount it to the wall. I really like it. Is mounted in the kitchen area with the lights aimed at the counter tops. Looks great.

The version I got was adjustable to 45inches from the ceiling. You have a few options.

Yes you will have enough clearance...but you should try to mount unit so screen is at eye level for best picture.

I'm not a electrician, but since this is a low voltage fixture, you dont need a lot of clearance between the fixture, just cut 4in diameter circle in the ceiling tile or sheet-rock and push the insulation away few inches with your hand and you should be fine. Hope this helps.

You need to allow about SIX inches from wall . This will allow plenty of room to work with all connection needed.

I just installed my rods and the distance between the wall and the back of the draw plate is 2", but it can be adjusted out one more inch to make it 3" clearance. But then there is the thickness of the window frame(in my case the clearance 1 1/2"--2 1/2". There are rods that have an extra inside rod just for sheers behind drapes or they used to make them because I had several of them years ago. If you are not sure where studs are, you might need to get screws that expand.
