Mounting Guidelines

Before mounting your Casablanca fan, read the following helpful recommendations. Location, fan size, and structural support are 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

afull-size fan even in smaller rooms. For very large rooms, two fans may be needed.

Structural Support

Installing a New Ceiling Fixture Outlet Box

If you do not have an existing fixture located where you wish to place your Casablanca fan, an approved ceiling fixture outlet box must be installed and wired.

Using Existing Ceiling Fixture Outlet Box

After turning the power OFF at its source (either the circuit breaker or fuse box), lower the old fixture and disconnect the wiring. Check the ceiling fixture outlet box to be sure it is marked “Approved for Ceiling Fan Mounting.” If it is not, a new box must be installed. For new construction, use an approved ceiling fixture outlet box with the rating “50 lbs. or less”. Ensure that the outlet box is mounted to a joist or stud beam. If not, a 2x4 stud must be installed.

ÑÑWARNING! To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or personal injury, mount to outlet box marked “Acceptable Fan Support of 22.7 kg (50 lbs.) or less” using the mounting hardware provided with the outlet box.

When to Use a Lag Screw

A lag screw is required under two conditions: the fan weighs 36 lbs. or more, or the existing ceiling fixture outlet box needs to be modified for a ceiling fan application (for example, you are replacing an existing light fixture with a fan). We recommend that the ceiling box be of sufficient capacity to support the weight

of the fan and light fixture under any conditions.

NOTE: The Atria weighs 42 lbs., so use of a lag screw is required.
