When to Use Extension Poles

For best performance and best appearance, an ex-

tension 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.

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 any installation, the tips of the blades must be at least 18″ from the wall in order to provide sufficient clearance for

the blades.

• 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.

• In low ceiling locations, our optional Low Ceiling Adaptor (LCA)—available at extra cost—can

be used to gain 3

.

• In kitchens be sure to allow for open cupboard doors to clear the fan blades.

• 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.

EXAMPLE 1

This slope is less than 32˚.

It is OK to install your fan.

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.

EXAMPLE 2

This slope is 32˚. This is the maximum

slope that will allow the fan to hang

straight down. It is OK to install

your fan.

EXAMPLE 3

This slope is more than 32˚.

Your fan will not hang straight down,

an adaptor is necessary. Contact your

local Authorized Casablanca Dealer in

regards to purchasing a “Slope Ceiling

Adaptor.”
