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 mount-
ing 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 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.

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 ceil-
ings. Casablanca offers standard poles in
increments of 6″ up to 5′. Custom poles
are available in lengths up to 10′. See your
Authorized Casablanca Dealer for details.
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 1
This slope is less than 32˚.
It is OK to install your fan.
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
Calculation of 32°
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.”
Use the tear-off Ceiling Angle Template card inserted in the
back of this manual, it provides you with a simple ‘go’ or
‘no-go’ for installing your fan on a sloped ceiling.

CAUTION: Failure to fully lock in the down-
rod before securely tightening the allen set
screw may cause the fan to separate from
the downrod during normal operation!
