Will this unit work with an 84" ceiling (7ft)? The chimney appears to come in 2 sections. Could I just leave off the second piece?

Yes, I think so, just leave off the second piece. I have an 8 ft ceiling so I used both sections (one full and one 8").

The chimney is 8 3/4 wide by 6 1/2 deep. As to height, our ceiling is 8' and it's plenty high. Great hood!!

Mine hangs down 30" for an 8 ft. ceiling, It was actually made for a 9 ft. ceiling which would allow it to hang down at least 42". They said it would work for an 8 ft. ceiling , but I had to cut some off the brackets and the stainless steel columns to make it work.

I have 25' ceiling and it works terrific. Closer the ceiling the more HD it is. Never tried outside. Great unit.

This fan might be at 8 feet when installed on your ceiling. As the down rod is 6 inches it self . Hope this info will help you with your decision :0)

I have mine above the fireplace. There shouldn't be any problem, as long as there are studs behind your walls to hang it. The other side of your wall should be metal (for the chimney), but you should still be able to hang it through the drywall into studs. Good luck!

6 inches is 6 inches Gary, it should lip onto your current chimney section. I suggest to do fasten with a couple of sheet metal screws to be sure wind will not blow it off.

I used this product on a flat ceiling but , as with all the units I've installed, I do a simple , cheap add on that may work for you..... Use some PVC fittings ( I used a coupling and cap on the ceiling end of the pole. This may work for you with a liittle trial and error to figure out whether 1/2 " or3/4 " fittings would work best in your application. I used this product with success and happy with it..... I would buy again.

You could flush mount it, but looking at mine (and using a measuring tape), it looks like the OVERALL drop from ceiling to the decorative finial on the bottom, would be about 18"-23", but the fan blades would only drop about 10-13" from the ceiling, so the "blade danger" wouldn't be much issue. I think you will be totally fine with 8' ceilings, but If you have anyone who is REALLY tall, like 6'4"+ in the home, maybe go with a lower profile fan without the heating element...

You can put it all the way to the top of a 7.5 foot ceiling/wall. The bottom of the unit is supposed to be about 30-39 inches off the floor.... an 8 foot ceiling would fit within that range probably as well...

Hi Zheng, Since this is an Island Mounted unit, the chimney is actually center of the base. I apologize for the confusion. Please let me know if there's any other questions. Best regards, Luxury Decor 888-644-7770

If necessary you can raise the entire unit 7-8 inches using leg extensions, sold separately for 10 bucks. I did this because I have high ceilings, and it worked like a charm. I really love this piece.

The way you see it pictured is considered flush mount but not using the extension rod. They do make true "flush mount fans" but they come down just as far if not further off the ceiling. This particular one really comes down pretty far so I would only recommend it if you have a 7 1/2 foot ceiling or more or in an area that would not cause injury to someone that is taller. I love ours and it is beautiful looking. Make sure you have enough clearance were you intend to install it with or without the extension rod

We used the piece that was included with the product... Our ceiling was 8 ft so we didn't need any additional extension. I hope this helps

Technically this is difficult to answer, without seeing your exact set up. The big issue with these is that they do have specific venting requirements, with special pipe etc. If you can satisfy those, you should be good to go as the unit itself does not put out a lot of heat (ours is a 2 person household. YMMV if you have this running for hours keeping up with multiple showers etc.) Our hangs in a relatively tight attic "crawl space" in condo - and very satisfied.

You would need 2 cross pieces - one each for top attachment and for bottom screw attachment - you'll see.It can sit on floor with legs purchased separately. Mine is set ~ 12" off floor for vacuum cleaning below. It's also a good idea to have some space ~ 2" behind to maximize airflow from the fan also purchase separately.I heat an entire above garage apartment and haven't needed to set it higher than 2 of 10. You'll love it.
