Know before you buy
While this downrod is designed specifically for Hunter fans, it may be compatible with other brands if the threading and diameter match. However, we recommend using it with Hunter ceiling fans to ensure the best fit and safety.
Yes. This downrod is rated for both wet and damp locations, making it suitable for covered porches, patios, and other outdoor areas where the fan may be exposed to moisture.
For optimal air circulation, ceiling fans should generally be mounted 8 to 9 feet above the floor. Measure your ceiling height and subtract the height of the fan motor and blades to determine if an 18-inch rod brings the fan to that ideal range.
This product includes the downrod itself. You should reuse the mounting hardware, pins, and clips provided with your original Hunter ceiling fan to ensure a secure connection.
The tapered threads provide a deeper, more secure connection between the downrod and the fan motor. This design helps minimize wobbling and ensures the fan remains stable during operation.
