MOUNTING RECOMMENDATIONS

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 recommen-

dations 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 adapter (LCS) - available at extra cost can be

used to gain 3

/2″ (not applicable to Stealth, Venus and Silhouette series).

• 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 32°

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.

When to Use Extension Poles

For best performance and best appearance,

an extension pole should be used with your

Casablanca fan when installing on high

(cathedral) ceilings or sloped ceilings. Casa-

blanca offers standard poles in increments of

6″ up to 5′. See your Authorized Casablanca

Dealer for details.
