Know before you buy
This downrod is compatible with most Hunter and Casablanca ceiling fans, but it is specifically not compatible with the Hunter Original® fan series.
For optimal air circulation and safety, ceiling fans should generally be mounted at least 8 to 9 feet above the floor. Measure the distance from your ceiling to the desired fan height to determine if a 72-inch extension is appropriate for your specific ceiling height.
Yes, the downrod features secure, tapered threads designed to integrate seamlessly with your existing Hunter or Casablanca fan mounting system for a reliable connection.
While the metal construction is durable, cutting a downrod is not recommended as it can compromise the structural integrity and the threading required for a secure installation. It is best to select the correct length for your ceiling height before installation.
The Cottage White finish is designed to match the standard white finishes found on most Hunter and Casablanca fans, ensuring a cohesive and polished look once installed.
