Would the fan actually need to hang that low? Isn't it's job just to push
air down from the top of the room? So the stem would just have to be long
so the blades would clear the ceiling slope.<br><br>

<blockquote type=cite class=cite cite="">All, currently in Vermont;
staying in a lovely house with a big 30'x30', tall 25'+ living room
converted from a barn. In addition to a radiant heated concrete
floor, a new pellet stove that blows heat into the space has recently
been installed. About a third of the room is divided by a loft
space that forms an extension to the larger room underneath and a bed
room above. The very high ceiling for the entire space is
contiguous.<br><br>
How to bring the rising warm air down to the occupied space
below?<br><br>
The space is well insulated but at the same time it has many windows, at
least ten. It would not be practical nor would it look good to
install a beam across the space from which a fan could be hung. I
don't think one can hang a large fan on what would have to be at least a
15 foot single pole.<br><br>
Ideas/suggestions/solutions for a good way to distribute the warm air
would be appreciated. When winter hits this part of the world, the
bedroom space will be overly warm while those sitting below will be
uncomfortably cold.<br><br>
thanks, Sacie<br><br>
