Minimum Ceiling Height Requirement: This fan requires a minimum ceiling height of at least 92" in order to meet building codes. If your ceiling is lower than 92" then you may need to add a flushmount adapter or close to ceiling dowrod if one is available for the fan (see below). If you cannot find what you need to make this fan work in your room, please give us a call so we can check to see if there are any further alternatives.

	Angled Ceiling Kit - Required for ceilings angled more than 30 and up to 45 degrees. Not needed for ceilings angled 30 degrees or less (or flat). Ceilings angled more than 45 will require a box framed into the ceiling to flatten the surface where the fan is to be installed.	Don't know your ceiling angle? CALCULATE HERE!	$15.52

How long of a downrod do I need?

Building codes require ceiling fans to be installed with the blades no lower than 7 feet from the floor in residential applications (industrial fans may require more distnace). The closer you are to the fan blades, the more cooling effect you will feel, so 7 feet is the optimal distance from the floor for most residential ceiling fans to get the most benefit.

The downrod included with the Minka Aire Delano ceiling fan is 3.5", which puts the blades 8" from the ceiling. An additional 6" downrod for slightly higher ceilings is also included with the fan which will bring the fan to 10.5" from the ceiling. Here are the Minimum Ceiling Heights required for each downrod available for this fan. Each length will put the fan blades 7 feet from the floor, so if you want your fan blades higher than 7 feet, choose a shorter downrod to fit your needs.

• 12" Downrod for 8.38' ceilings (blades 16.5" from ceiling)
• 18" Downrod for 8.88' ceilings (blades 22.5" from ceiling)
• 24" Downrod for 9.38' ceilings (blades 28.5" from ceiling)
• 36" Downrod for 10.38' ceilings (blades 40.5" from ceiling)
• 48" Downrod for 11.38' ceilings (blades 52.5" from ceiling)
• 60" Downrod for 12.38' ceilings (blades 64.5" from ceiling)
• 72" Downrod for 13.38' ceilings (blades 76.5" from ceiling)

About Angled Ceilings

This fan will hange from flat ceilings and ceilings angled up to 30 degrees using the hardware that comes in the box. If your ceiling is over 30 degrees, you can by an Angled Ceiling Adapter that will allow you to install the fan on a ceiling angled up to 45.

How to measure Rise:

Rise is the vertical distance your ceiling rises for every horizontal foot. Rise per foot is called Pitch. A roof with a 4/12 pitch rises 4 inches vertically for every 12 inches horizontal.

Our calculator uses roof pitch to calculate the angle of your ceiling. Since we already know the horizontal measurement is 12", we only need you to enter in the vertical rise to make the calculation.

To measure the rise of your ceiling: Hold a 12" ruler ruler horizontally (using a level) with one corner touching the ceiling. Then take measure the vertical distance from the other end of the ruler to the ceiling. This is the rise. Select your dimensions in the form above to calculate the angle of your ceiling. Most ceiling fans (except for hugger fans) can hang on ceilings angled up to 30 degrees without the need for an angled ceiling adapter. 30 degrees is slightly less than a 7/12 pitch. Most angled ceiling adapters will allow your fan to hang up to 45 degress...which is a 12/12 pitch.

Replacement Glass*

MULTIPLE GLASS OPTIONS: If there is more than one replacement glass option and the glass is not specifically referenced to the fan finish, please call us to place your order. This may indicate that the manufacturer may have modified the glass since the first production run. In such cases, we must know the Serial Number of your ceiling fan to determine when it was produced in order to get the correct glass. The serial number can usually be found on a label that is on the top of your fan motor. Please call us with that number.

FREE REPLACEMENT GLASS: If you purchased your fan from us in the past 5 years (on or after March 31st 2009) and have broken your glass, we may replace it FREE OF CHARGE based on our 5 Year FREE Replacement Parts Plan. Please call us so that we can verify that you made your purchase from us and that your glass is in fact broken (email us a picture of your fan and broken glass). Once verified, we will get you a replacement at no charge (just another advantage of buying your ceiling fans here at Hansen Wholesale). *All replacement glass sales are final, no refunds or exchages.

How does the Minka Aire Delano Compare to the Average Ceiling Fan?

Quality Rating = 4 (average is 3)
A Quality Rating of 4 is above average, the Minka Aire Delano ceiling fan will run smooth and quiet and will give you many years of operation with no worries of the motor burning out.

Airflow = 5600 CFM (average is about 5755)
5600 CFM is pretty much average, so don't expect a super strong breeze from this fan. However, most people are used to average ceiling fans, so if you have never experienced a fan more powerful than this, you may be satisfied with the Minka Aire Delano.

Efficiency Rating = 80 CFM/Watt (average is about 86)
An Efficiency Rating of 80 is fairly average. Efficiency is defined by the EPA as the amount of airflow a fan produces (CFM) divided by the amount of electricity (Watts) it uses on high speed without any lights on. Efficiency is less important than Airflow because more CFMs allow you to raise your thermostat higher...which is where you will save the most energy. Efficiency becomes more important if you expect to operate several ceiling fans at the same time. (see calculator below)

Electrical Usage = 70 Watts (average is about 76)
70 Watts per hour is pretty close to average, so it will cost about the same to operate the Minka Aire Delano as most other ceiling fans. Use the calculator below to estimate just how much it will cost to operate this fan in "Your home".

CFM -vs- Efficiency: CFM is KING! It is more important to buy a fan with higher CFMs than it is to buy a fan that uses less electricity. The highest wattage consumed by the most energy guzzling ceiling fan on our website is about 120 watts. So if you input 120 as the fan watts and run our calculator, you will see that it still costs less than 2 cents per hour to operate the most energy guzzling ceiling fan in most states. You will get more savings with a higher CFM fan than a lower Wattage fan because if your fan moves more air you will be able to raise your thermostat to a higher degree. Raising your thermostat by 10 degrees can save you up to 40% on your cooling bills. Choosing a less powerful fan because it uses less electricity can be the worst mistake you can make because it will not cool you off enough to allow you to raise your thermostat to a high enough level without becoming uncomfortable. This is why CFM is so much more important to consider than Wattage.
