Do you have to use the 4in.drop rod or can it be flush mounted?

I am not sure about flush mount but the fan installation came packaged with the drop rod and that is how I installed mine. I have normal ceiling height and is located so that there is not a lot of foot traffic underneath the fan. Looks great mounted as manufacture has provided with rod and has clearance of six feet plus a few inches to the lowest point of pull chains. The chains length can probably be modified. necessary.

It can be 'flush' mounted, the blades will be about 1' from the ceiling and the spot lights will be another 4" below the blades.

Hi Nicholas, thanks for the question. Unfortunately, this fan cannot be flushmounted. However, and this may help you, the smallest downrod is only 3.5" inches, so that may help some. We hope this answers your question. Nicholas, if you need anything else, please reach out to one of our awesome experts because they know everything. Also, they just happen to be sitting right next to their phones right now :) Hansen Wholesale 1-800-201-1193

This comes with a 2.25 inch threaded center for shaft and two screw holes and 1.25 inch screws(2). I mounted it by drilling a hole for a 1/4 inch toggle anchor that the drop shaft screwed into. Drilled out the threaded center of mounting plate to slide over the un-threaded drop shaft and used the 2 included screws to hold plate in place. Didn't have a rafter to screw into over the shower curtain rods run to secure plate to. Doubt wear and tear will pull this one out.

We mounted with down rod because our ceiling is slanted but you should be able to mount it flush.

For safety measures, it is not recommended to be flush mounted. It is intended to be hung only.

I don't think so. I did not use a 4" rod. The fan is closer to the ceiling. My guess is right around one foot from ceiling..Give or take a few inches.

You have to order a down rod separately. There are different lengths available.

No you have to buy a certain rod for height if you want a certain drop from ceiling . The rod that comes with it hangs about 6 inches .

I could not find anything in the instructions that mentioned a flush mount or how to mount the unit flush (against the ceiling) so I used the shortest drop rod. My ceiling height in the small bedroom I installed this unit in would not allow me to use the light kit as I would be bumping my head into it as it would hang too low. The ceiling fan works great without the light kit and looks very nice, but I would have preferred a light that I could have used. Also instructions for installing the fan without the light are not in the supplied instructions, you must get them online, which I found irritating. It's very simple, but it should be included on the instruction sheet.

Drop rods are not required since the gate kit includes the hinges and most of the other hardware required for installation. I did purchase gate posts to replace the ones included in the gate since the ones that shipped with the kit did not fit the hinge hardware on the gate...they were only a couple of bucks at Home Depot.

This is a ceiling hugger fan and must be flush mounted. The mounting is less than 10" in diameter accoring to my eyeball assessment. It cannot be mounted with a downrod.

The rod can be bent and straighted as you lower it into the water heater. Therefore you don't need much clearance. I had 24", but you could get by with much less.

This fan can be flush mounted and comes with a (I think) 4" downrod. I ordered a 24" downrod for our fan. Here is the link for the matching downrod:Hunter 28966 24" Extension Downrod Burled Brown

I could not use the regular base mount because my jalousies are flush to ceiling with no end wall. When I saw it, I'd guess 4" to be safe. If you're uncertain as I was, it's safer to consult an expert. I went ahead and adapted mounts but the job is clearly unprofessional. I wanted washable curtains and rods are not meant for the building. A professional job wouldn't have cost much more.

It is a "flush mount" which is why I ordered this particular style; however Hunter does have the other style with "down rod".

I wish I could help....I flush mounted mine so I really didn't pay attention to the down rod that came with it. The picture implies a good foot or more but I can't promise you that. Sorry I can't help more.

I didn't use the screws that came with the flushmount. Not suitable for what I used them for. I used for hanging pole curtain rod thing I made to extend out from the wall. I used plugs and longer screw for this. Also, didn't use all four holes, just the top ones. One can use molly hangers too if something is heavier. It will hold something quite heavy if the screwing devices are strong. (plugs, back support screws, etc.) Hope this helps.
