For the inside of a barn with vaulted ceilings around 24 ft would you be better off putting two 65" fans or one 85" fan

Hi Mary, thanks for the question. It really depends on the dimensions of the space. In general, rooms (or barns) that are larger than 20' X 15' are better served by two fans rather than one large fan. We hope this helps!

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.

I can not make that choice for you however, even though I have a 10 foot ceiling I chose not to use the drop down bar it came with and mounted the fan the regular way. I am very happy with the look of the product and the blade pitch. My only issue is I can hear a humming sound from 2 fans and 3 of them do not rotate as fast as the other 2 even though they are set up exactly the same with the same speed.

I think a 600 CFM is a little too small. Personally I would look at a 700 or 750 CFM.

im using a 4 inch inline fan i bought at htg for 1 600w hps in a 4x4x7 and it isn't cutting it ( temps in the 80's) so with 2x 600w you might need something better than this

Probably couldn't hurt if you have the room, I thought about doing the same. The fan is decent for what it is, but doesn't push all that much air. You could wire both fans to operate on the same switch. I have noticed that the fan does help the performance of the unit in hot temps. Good luck dude.

I would worry about the light weight of this fan. It would tend to blow over if you had any wind at all. I would go for a heavier weight more stable fan,

I think either setup would work. The Vornado circulates the cool air all around the room so position it so that wherever YOU are you are getting the most benefit of the cool. For example, if you are trying to cool off in your favorite chair, couch or bed, place it so you can feel the nice cool air as much (or as little) as you want. The size of the fan depends on the size of the room. In a small room, a smaller model is great. This one will do for a living room and good-sized bedroom. Hope this helps. I've gone through a lot of fans (with and without A/C) and these are the best.

This is a large fan and moves a lot of air... it works well in vaulted or cathedral ceiling applications. In a regular 8' ceiling, it will look out of place and may be dangerously low with the included down rod. You should look for a ceiling hugger style fan.

If the goal is to install a humidistat controlled fan and it meets the desired CFM rating, it is nice packaging design to adapt to most any requirement. However,mine suffered early life failure after 6 or 8 months so I suspect the fans are not rated for 24x7 operation.

Two fans might work depending on the size of the shelter. I use for my tent that sleeps 10 and inside my house in the kitchen also.

24" spacing on center is the norm for ceiling joists, so this should work fine. I think you will be able to catch 2 studs, but if not, and you have access to the storage area/attic, you could always install a crossbar stud above the drywall between the studs for extra support.

My guess is you will probably need two ceiling fans...especially if you choose this model.

I put 3 of these fans in house in Florida with 12 ft ceilings and used a 2 ft downrod. (FYI - best fans ever. No wobble becuz the downrod end is triangular insuring it's stability!) I know I cut off a lot of extra wire but can't guaranty the total wire was longer than 6 ft. Recommend you hit up the Hunter Fan people. They're pretty good at getting back to me when I had questions about compatible light fixtures for certain fans. Link to customer service here. http://www.hunterfan.com/Support/Contact-Us/

It's not a good idea to connect several downroads. 8ft is a minimum for a ceiling fan. I bought a 72" downroad for my 19' great room. It looks and works great.

I purchased this fan for my bedroon which is 14 x 17. Normally I like to use a 42" four blade fan, which I currently usein my second bedroom which is 12 x 12 and it's perfect. Because this fan has five blades, it should be more than enough air movement for your livingroom. I don't like to see a huge fan hanging from the center of my ceilings.

I used a 1' rod on this fan because I installed it on a sloping cathedral ceiling. Other lengths of rods are also available.
