Know before you buy
No, this model is dry-rated only. It should be installed in indoor spaces like living rooms or great rooms and kept away from moisture or direct outdoor exposure.
Because of its large 72-inch span, this fan is best suited for great rooms or large open-concept living areas. Ensure you have enough clearance for the blades to rotate safely without hitting walls or furniture.
This model includes a full-function wall control system for operation. It does not come with a handheld remote, so you will need to wire the wall switch to control the fan's speed and light.
Yes, the downrod mounting system allows for installation on sloped ceilings. Please verify that your ceiling angle is compatible with the included mounting hardware before installation.
The integrated light kit is designed for standard on/off functionality via the included wall control. If you require dimming capabilities, you may need to consult with a professional electrician regarding compatible wall-mounted dimmers.
The AC motor is a robust, traditional choice that provides powerful, consistent airflow of 6,550 CFM. While it is highly effective at moving air in large spaces, it is generally less energy-efficient than newer DC motor models.
