It appears that the fan is mounted horizontal to the ceiling like a larger whole house fan. Can it be mounted this way&gt;

It can be mounted at any angle desired. Most common is used with a self-closing louver in a gable end. But has many uses other than that.

Hello! You cannot flush mount this fan, as the blades are too large. If there is anything else we can help with, please let us know! Lighting and Locks 1-800-334-5804

I have installed three of these fans. If you do not tighten the bolt that runs through the support, to tight, you can turn it left and right. There is no reason to over-tighten this bolt so the fan won't move left & right. Good luck.

I was wondering that, too, Blake. It seems that horizontal window fans are difficult to find. Is that because it's best if you can block off the rest of the window? Anyway, I am going to order the fan for the convenience of having a remote control and the reverse capable fans. I'll tape it in, if nothing else! :) I will post a review after I have used it. Another poster wrote:on May 3, 2011 6:26:01 PM PDT (regarding using the fan in the vertical position): TheyCallMeMcGyver says: Nothing says that it can, but I just bought one and I did just that, ie installed it vertically in a window opening 21" wide x 24" high. This meant the unit fit quite snugly from top to bottom, but there is a fair amount of "open" space on the sides. For my installation the open space on the sides isn't an issue. I wasn't trying to block in the entire window opening. I just needed to put something in the opening to move the air in/out. The only downside, if you want to call it that, is that the temp display is now sideways.

We had the fan installed with a short mount, but not flush against the outdoor ceiling (done by an electrician). Because of the shape of the leaves and the fan make-up, I would suggest that it not be flush mounted. Need a little space for the shape and movement of the fan.

You could flush mount it, but looking at mine (and using a measuring tape), it looks like the OVERALL drop from ceiling to the decorative finial on the bottom, would be about 18"-23", but the fan blades would only drop about 10-13" from the ceiling, so the "blade danger" wouldn't be much issue. I think you will be totally fine with 8' ceilings, but If you have anyone who is REALLY tall, like 6'4"+ in the home, maybe go with a lower profile fan without the heating element...

By checking the directions, I think you must use a downrod, but they include a shorter downroad for fans installed close to the ceiling. Absolutely flush does not look like an option.

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 wasn't designed to fit in that manner. I would not try it. See if you can find smaller fan.

Mine is clipped to a window sill, so a horizontal surface. The "default" position is straight ahead horizontal. The fan can go completely vertical pointed up, and about 30deg pointed down. If I understand you question, clipped to the top of a cube wall (so it would be pointed down if it was at the "default" position,) you should have no problem pointing it up to a completely horizontal position. Boy I'm glad I don't work in a cubicle anymore......

i see no problem mounting this horizionaly. however i have not done so myself. i might add that this is a good, quite running fan. look st the pin conectors as mine were loose. just taks a little effort in pushing the male pins into the female connector.

I am assuming 'flush mounted' to mean the upper canopy can be attached to the fan housing. No. It comes with two down rods, one 3" for standard ceiling height and a shorter one 1 1/2" for a closer to ceiling mount.

It could be mounted from a ceiling. Highly recommend finding a stud and using a lag bolt with washers. You may have to trim the power switch pull chain so it doesn't hang in the fan cage.

I do not believe it can be completely flush mounted, as I believe you have to retain the mounting "base" that bolts to the ceiling, and the rod serves as the only connection from that "base" to the fan motor unit. However, you can cut the rod to any length you'd like.

I don't think this is possible. I have the smallest down rod and the top of the fan hangs 5 1/2 inches from the ceiling. It is a beautiful fan but I would not try to flush mount it. I often try to make things work and I could see getting a rod that is an inch or so shorter but that is as far as I would go.

No. You can put in place of where ceiling fan was but it will not fit on ceiling fan itself.

YES just might want to mount it on top where the BIG red fan is. IE take the fan off.
