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.

•  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.

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 install-

ing your fan on a sloped ceiling.

7' minimum

When to Use Extension Poles

For optimum performance and 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.

Blades must be a 

minimum of 7 feet 

above the floor

Extension 

Pole

This slope is less than 32º.

It is OK to install your fan.

This slope is 32º.  This is the maximum 

slope that will allow the fan to hang 

straight down.  It is OK to install your fan.

This slope is more than 32º.  Your fan will not 

hang straight down, an adaptor is necessary.  

Contact your local Authorized Casablanca 

Dealer in regards to purchasing a “Sloped 

Ceiling Adaptor.”

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.
