It comes with a short down rod and everything you need except the fan wall switch which can be purchased separate I would recommend one.

Is that like a "extension rod". If so, non are included. I got the extension at HomeDepot

There were two downrods in the box. According to the instruction manual one is a "standard downrod" and the other is a "minimum length downrod (for close to ceiling mounting only)". I'm sorry but I cannot tell you what the size of the standard one is because we discarded it. The fan is now installed so I measured the exposed space of the minimum length downrod and it is two inches. The instruction manual does not give length specs for either downrod.

It did come with a very short down rod. It still needs a small flat space to mount it. Slightly larger than the electrical box as I recall. Just not as big of a flat space as some fans. Longer down rods can be purchased at any home improvement store for not much money.

I think you need the downrod but the guy who installed mine cut it to the right length. You can also buy other sizes of downrods for $10 or so at Home Depot

Yes, we used a 60" down rod with this fan. The one that amazon recommended was perfect- oil rubbed bronze.

Hi Deb,Thanks for the question. Including the 4" downrod, this fan hangs down 12.5". Longer downrods are available, and must be purchased separately. We hope this helps!

I believe it was really short...like 3". I needed a 18" & 36" so had to order the downrod. They also have downrods at Lowe's but wanted the finish to match so ordered with the fan. Hope this helps.

a 3.5" and 6" downrod are included. However, if you need a longer downrod that would have to be an additional purchase. You can contact us for any further questions regarding us.

No. Unfortunately they can't be from what I saw. We have a vaulted as well and ordered the length of downrod the installer suggested and the fan looks great.

Don't use the down rod at all. Pop the plastic piece out of the bottom of the top ceiling mount canopy. This will reveal 3 screw holes. You will notice 6 black screws in a ring on the top of the fan motor. Unscrew 3 of these (every other one). Put these three screws through the canopy screw holes and screw back into the three holes on the fan motor housing. You now have a flush mount.

This fan can be flush mounted and comes with a (I think) 4" downrod. I ordered a 24" downrod for our fan. Here is the link for the matching downrod:Hunter 28966 24" Extension Downrod Burled Brown

If you want the bottom of your fan to be 7ft, then use a 10-1/2ft (126in) down-rod. If you want the bottom of your fan to be at 8ft, then use a 9-1/2ft (114in.) down-rod. Formula: Ceiling height(ft.) minus fan bottom height(ft.) plus 2.5ft, equals down-rod length in feet.

Hi Mayra,Thanks for the question. This fan comes with (2) downrods that are 3.5" and 6". You can get an 18" or longer downrod, but it's sold separately. Here are the model numbers:18": DR518-ORB24": DR524-ORBWe hope this helps.

Hi Triloron,Thanks for the question. We're not sure what that reviewer meant, but the shortest downrod you can use is 3 1/2" and is included. As far as ceiling height requirements, this fan requires a minimum ceiling height of at least 92.5" in order to meet building codes. If your ceiling is lower than 92.5" then you may consider a different fan, especially because this fan cannot be flushmounted.

The wires probably had 2 feet or so of length. You WILL need more for a ft down rod. But great fan! You'll love it.

Hello! It's always best to get a downrod with the same manufacturer, as that way you are guaranteed for it to work. Manufacturers do different things with their downrods, so one company's will not always fit another's fan.

We would recommend ordering a down-rod from the same manufacture to guarantee compatibility. Also, the finish of the down-rod from Minka Aire will match exactly to the fan.
