I-Beam
See the installation instructions for complete guidelines on mounting the fan to an I-beam.
Install Guidelines
- Big Ass Fans does not recommend mounting the fan to a fabricated I-beam.
- Do not mount the fan directly to an I-beam without the upper mount, extension tube, and lower yoke.
- The I-beam must be part of the existing building structure.
- Install spacers if the flange thickness exceeds 3/8” (10 mm).
- For an angled I-beam or pitched roof, the beam flange width must be 5” to 9-7/8” (127 to 251 mm).
- See callouts in the interactive models for additional guidelines.
