Choosing the Right Installation Location
You probably bought this fan with a location in mind. Let’s check below to make sure it is a good fit.
Check the room dimensions: |
Check the outlet box: |
30 inches |
|
from blade tip to |
|
nearest wall or |
|
obstruction |
7 feet |
|
|
|
from bottom edge |
|
of blade to the |
|
floor |
You must be able to secure the fan to building structure or fan-rated 
outlet box.
Checking the Ceiling Angle:
Standard Mounting
Support Structure
Ceiling
Outlet Box

If you have a flat ceiling:
Hang your fan by a standard downrod. Some fans come with a shorter downrod for a Low Profile installation.

If you have an angled or vaulted ceiling:
1. You will need a longer downrod. (sold separately at HunterFan.com)
2. If your ceiling angle is greater than 34°, you will also need an Angled Mounting Kit. (Sold separately at HunterFan.com)

<![endif]>WALL
A little more information on Angled Mounting:
For optimum performance and appearance, a longer downrod should be used with your Hunter ceiling fan when installing on high or angled ceiling. If your ceiling is angled greater than 34° you will also need an Angled Mounting Kit. Longer downrods and the Angled Mounting Kit are sold separately at HunterFan.com.
Hunter Pro Tip:
Determining if you need an Angled Mounting Kit:
Fold on the dotted line. Place against edge against the wall. Slide towards the ceiling.
If the guide touches the wall but not the ceiling, you need an angled mounting kit.
