An 18-inch downrod for ceiling fans, finished in black, for mounting your fan at the ideal height in rooms with higher ceilings.
This Fanimation downrod extends your ceiling fan 18 inches from the ceiling, letting you position the fan lower for better airflow and comfort. The black finish pairs well with fans in black, dark bronze, or modern finishes. It's a simple, sturdy accessory that makes installation straightforward.
Best for
- Living rooms and family rooms with ceilings 9 feet or higher, where a standard flush mount would leave the fan too high
- Bedrooms with vaulted or sloped ceilings, to bring the fan down to an effective height
- Covered patios and porches, since this downrod is rated for damp locations
- Replacing a shorter downrod to improve air circulation in a large room
Not ideal for
- Rooms with low ceilings under 8 feet, where a downrod would make the fan hang too low
- Outdoor areas exposed directly to rain, as it is only rated for damp, not wet, locations
Style and finish
The black finish is a classic, matte black that complements modern, industrial, and contemporary fan designs. It's a versatile finish that works well with a wide range of decor styles.
