*The Rapid Mount Commercial does not support this angle

The extension lengths above are minimum recommendations only, based solely on roof pitch 

and fan diameter. Other factors must be evaluated when determining extension requirements. 

In addition, OSHA requirements state that the fan airfoils must be a minimum of 10 feet (3.05 

meters) above the floor. Contact our technical department for assistance with fan placement and 

extension selection (technical support contact information can be found on page

 

29).
