Hanging ceiling fan from vaulted ceiling peak
Want to install Hampton Bay's Berlini model 729395 on a cathedral ceiling with a single ridge beam. Want to hang fan from the peak and there's not enough room for the canopy to cover the hanger bracket. Is there any extenders for this?

Purchase and install a peak ceiling fan brace. They can be a little funky to install in old work but are fairly self evident. They are mounted to the beam with long screws, then the fan screw directly through the brace into the beam as well. The box extends out of the peak and is white but can be paintedto match. It leaves a neat square for the fan canopy to rest against.

I have a room approx 25 x 30 floor space with a 24' high ceiling over half of it. My painter said there is a ton of heat being trapped up there so I bought 2 ceiling fans and want to know at what height they should be installed. And should one be higher than the other. They are 52" each.
Hi, I'm trying to install a ceiling fan. The present ceiling box (if you can even call it a box) is an very old-style cylindrical black hunk of metal with four holes for the wires and a hole in the center through which there is a 3/8" threaded metal rod which supports the "box". Obviously this...
