Mounting Recommendations; General Guidelines; Sloped Ceiling Installations - Casablanca Cottage Wet Owner's Manual

Table of Contents

Before mounting your Casablanca fan, read the following helpful recommendations. The location of the fan, air circulation,

and fan size are all important factors to consider before installation.

location

Ceiling fans have practical uses in almost every room in your home. We suggest

you follow these mounting recommendations as you decide where to install

your Casablanca fan.

• For safety reasons, the fan blades must be a minimum of 7' above the floor.

• Do not locate the fan in a doorway or above a swinging door.

• In bedrooms, fans work best when mounted above the foot of the bed.

• Over pool tables, be sure to provide plenty of clearance to avoid damage from

pool cues.

• Do not install a fan close to or over a pool or spa. High humidity combined

with corrosive gases will destroy the finish and warp the blades.

fan Size

Variable fan speed capability permits the use of a full-size 52" fan even in smaller rooms. For very large rooms, two fans may

be needed.

When to use Extension Poles

for optimum performance and appearance, an extension

pole should be used with your Casablanca fan when

installing on high (cathedral) ceilings or sloped ceilings.

Casablanca offers standard poles in increments of 6" up

to 5'. Custom poles are available in lengths up to 9'9". See

your authorized Casablanca dealer for details.

notE: fan may wobble or vibrate if pole length is not long

enough and inside blade is too close to downslope or side

wall. Extending pole length will usually solve problem.

Calculation of Ceiling angle

use the tear-off Ceiling Angle Template card inserted in this

manual. It provides you with a simple "go" or "no-go" for

installing your fan on a sloped ceiling.
