JUNCTION BOX MOUNTING 

OPTIONS

Secure the outlet box directly to the building 

structure.  Use  appropriate  fasteners  and 

building  materials.  The  outlet  box  and  its 

support  must  be  able  to  fully  support  the 

moving  weight  of  the  fan  (at  least  45  lbs.). 

Use a UL Listed metal outlet box. Do not use 

a plastic outlet box.

Figures 1, 2 and 3 are examples of different 

ways to mount the outlet box.

Note:

  You  may  need  a  longer  down  rod  to 

maintain  proper  blade  clearance  when 

installing on a steep, sloped ceiling. (Fig. 3)

To hang your fan where there is an existing 

fixture but no ceiling joist, you may need an 

installation hanger bar as shown in Fig. 4.
