Hunter Fan 22717 Ceiling Fan Downrod 12 Inch White

Product Description

The HUNTER FAN 22717 is a 12-inch ceiling fan downrod finished in white, designed to lower the hanging height of compatible Hunter ceiling fans for proper airflow and clearance. The rod measures 0.75 inches in inside diameter and features a tapered end that ensures a tighter, more secure fit at the fan canopy. One end is threaded for attachment, and a mounting hole is provided for the required clevis pin or set screw connection. At 0.764 pounds, the downrod is lightweight and straightforward to handle during installation. Electricians and HVAC-side ceiling fan installers commonly stock these extensions for rooms with higher ceilings requiring non-standard drop lengths.

This downrod is intended for residential ceiling fan installations where additional drop length is needed between the ceiling canopy and the fan motor housing. It is suited for standard flat or vaulted ceiling applications where the fan must be lowered to achieve the recommended 7-foot minimum blade clearance from the floor. The white finish coordinates with white fan bodies and ceiling canopies for a clean, finished appearance.

Key Features

• 12-inch length provides additional drop for higher ceiling installations
• 0.75-inch inside diameter for proper wire and ball routing
• Tapered end design promotes a tighter, more secure canopy fit
• Threaded on one end with a mounting hole for secure mechanical connection
• White finish for a clean match with white fan bodies and canopies

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and extension downrod for Hunter ceiling fans requiring a 0.75-inch inside diameter downrod.

Installation Notes

Ceiling fan downrods are typically installed by a licensed electrician or a qualified installer familiar with NEC requirements for ceiling fan support boxes and wiring. Always shut off power at the circuit breaker before disassembling the fan canopy or handling wiring routed through the downrod. Route the fan wiring through the downrod before connecting either end, as access is not possible after assembly. Verify the ceiling mounting bracket and electrical box are rated for the combined weight of the fan and downrod before installation.
