This is an indoor ceiling fan of 56 inch. Most ceiling fans come with three inch downrods that suspend the fan blades eight inches from the ceiling. A ceiling up to 9 feet high requires a standard 3 inch drop rod. 10 to 11 foot.

The correct downrod length depends on the vaulted ceiling s pitch angle and height. Very high ceilings such as a vaulted ceiling may need a longer downrod so check the downrod size prior to purchasing your fan. A vaulted ceiling requires a ceiling fan with a sufficient downrod which is the ceiling fan s neck that connects the wall mount to the top of the fan. In a room with a standard eight foot ceiling this leaves approximately 7 feet 4 inches.
