Nice to see a good chart to best place a ceiling fan, thanks.

The problem with this advice is that once your downroad gets bellow 6-8 inches then you start loosing a significant amount of performance of your ceiling fan. This is because a ceiling fan works by moving air from above the blades downwards, so you need some space above the blades.

That's something you have to sacrifice with low ceilings.

You could make a downrod really long by combining downrods together with couplers.

Arlington Virginia houses must have a flush mount fan because some Arlington Virginia houses have ceilings below 8 feet.

Wouldn't it be better to have the ceiling fan be 7 ft off the ground no matter how tall the ceiling is?

Should the downrod move freely or be firm and barely pivot?
@miacrawford4662 Жыл бұрын
I’m wondering the same currently.. haven’t installed the blades yet and wondering if it’s normal that it pivots so much. Did you ever figure this out?
@brianduchowicz5321 Жыл бұрын
No. I just let it have some free movement.not super loose

Who knew there was actually a formula for the downrod length?!! Not me!! My fan came with the standard 4" (approx) downrod, but my ceilings are low. It would actually be better flush mount. Would I be able to simply remove the downrod at this point?

If you put a flush mount ceiling fan on a 14 foot ceiling, your not going to get any air, I think the fan is too far away from the ground, that's what I think though

Um. You mention the length of the downrods. How about the diameters?

Are downrods for ceiling fans interchangeable

My slab height is 12ft and fall ceiling is 18inch i need to keep more 1ft under the fall ceiling. My question is whether my fan will function steadily with 2.5ft rod or it will wobble as there is no support inbetween to the rod??

what would be the best mounting height of ceiling fans (from floor to under the ceiling fan height) for bedrooms?

What do you recommend for a 19 feet ceiling and 70 inch fan? Where can I get longer downroads from !
@TN-bm6dh6 жыл бұрын
My celing fan was so close to the ceiling. I don't get much cooling. Hoe to extend it? Thanks.

If a ceiling is 12 feet, and the downrod is 24 inches, the height off the floor would be 10 feet, not 9 feet as the graphic illustrates.

Are you including the fan size?

do I really need a down rod for 9ft ceiling in a 10x12 room?
@zeke-hv5df Жыл бұрын
I think this is just not right. I am 6' tall. My reach is to 8'. Code or not, I should not be able to touch the fan blades, in my opinion.

What about a 22 foot ceiling? Or a 16 foot ceiling?
@SuperMan-xy8ui6 жыл бұрын
Use multiple downrods attached with couplers.
@guycan1002 жыл бұрын
Such a stupid calculation. 10 ft ceiling minus 8ft = 24 inch down rod. He post a video and never answers your questions. You should take it down
