Minka Aire dr548-cl Down Rod 48 Inches Coal

Product Description

The MINKA AIRE dr548-cl is a steel ceiling fan down rod finished in Coal, designed to extend the mounting distance between a ceiling fan canopy and the ceiling. At 0.75 inches in diameter and 48 inches in length, this down rod provides substantial drop for high-ceiling installations where standard mounting height would position the fan too close to the ceiling for effective airflow. It is installed by HVAC and electrical technicians as well as skilled electricians and knowledgeable DIYers working on ceiling fan replacements or new installations.

This down rod is suited for residential ceiling installations where greater ceiling-to-fan clearance is required, such as vaulted ceilings, great rooms, foyers, and two-story living spaces. The Coal finish provides a dark, matte-toned appearance that coordinates with fans in matching or complementary finishes. At 48 inches, it delivers one of the longer extension lengths available for residential ceiling fan applications.

Key Features

• Steel construction for rigid, durable support of the fan motor assembly
• 0.75-inch diameter shaft compatible with standard ceiling fan canopy hardware
• 48-inch length provides extended drop for high-ceiling and vaulted-ceiling installations
• Coal finish for a dark, understated aesthetic
• OEM-style replacement or upgrade component for compatible MINKA AIRE ceiling fans

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or extension component for MINKA AIRE ceiling fans that accept a 0.75-inch diameter down rod. Confirm canopy thread specification and ball-and-socket or straight-mount style before ordering.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or qualified technician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and local building codes. Shut off power at the circuit breaker before beginning any ceiling fan wiring or mounting work. Ensure the ceiling fan mounting bracket and electrical box are rated for the combined weight of the fan motor and down rod assembly. Do not exceed the rated load capacity of the ceiling junction box.
