Also, the longer the extension, tje more prone or will be for wobble.
Sounds like you need an extension rod to lower the fan down to 9 or 10 feet. May not find one that long, however.
Chances are you are getting turbulence from the blades being so close to the slopping ceiling.

Robert,
Thanks for the reply. I will try this but it may be difficult. It is 20' high and the fan is at the apex of an A frame so it will be hard to find the exact place to measure for each blade since the slant it so severe. I will get the ladder and see.
Thanks
