Know before you buy
No, this specific downrod is designed exclusively for Hunter Original fans. It features a specific threading and diameter that may not be compatible with other Hunter models or third-party fans.
Yes, the downrod is constructed from durable stainless steel, making it suitable for outdoor installations. It is built to withstand environmental conditions while maintaining a secure connection.
A 60-inch downrod is typically recommended for ceilings up to 14 feet high. For optimal air circulation, you generally want the fan blades to be positioned at least 8 to 9 feet above the floor.
The downrod includes the necessary threading for a secure connection to your Hunter Original fan. Please ensure you retain the mounting hardware that came with your original fan assembly, as this product is a component extension.
We do not recommend cutting the downrod, as it is precision-engineered with specific threading for a secure, deep engagement. Altering the rod can compromise the structural integrity and safety of the fan mounting.
