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:
30 in
from blade tip to
nearest wall or
obstruction
from bottom edge
of blade to the
Standard Mounting
Support Structure
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.
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 30° 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 edge against the wall.
Slide towards the ceiling.
If the guide touches the wall but not the ceiling, you
need an angled mounting kit.
