I would say yes because I've never seen a ceiling fan that couldn't be installed on a down rod. In fact, I've never personally seen a ceiling fan that couldn't be installed either way. You can use a down rod of any length, at your discretion. You can buy rods of various lengths or have one cut to the length you want. Beyond a few inches, maybe a foot, you will have to install additional wires to allow for length of the rod.

Is the switched portion of an outlet mounted toward the top or the bottom?
There is no switch on an outlet. You can mount an outlet with the ground up or down. Most electricians I know mount the ground down as I do.
How do you replace a fan's light bulb?
It depends on the type of fan, whether it is a range hood, bathroom fan, or room ceiling fan. There are several ways they are mounted as explained below. Preferably the power to the fixture in question should be off. 1. If there are thumb screws near the cover (mainly on range hoods and some light only ceiling fixtures), you would remove them. Then you would unscrew the old bulb and screw in the new one. Then you would put the thumb screws back in. 2. This may be just for a light-only fixture, but if the fixture is recessed and the cover is almost completely flush with the ceiling, you would pry it from the ceiling. Then you would replace the bulb. Getting the reataining springs back in may be tricky, and you would need to protect your eyes from debris up in the ceiling. 3. With most bathroom fans that use a square acrylic light cover, you would press into each side and pull it loose. Then you would replace the bulb and snap the cover back on. 4. If you mean a standard ceiling fan, it depends. For most, you would simply unscrew the old bulb and screw a new one in. For others, there are retaining screws holding the globe on, and for a few, the globe unscrews. 5. For a few ceiling fans, you don't replace the bulb, but replace the entire lamp kit. To do that, you remove the 3 screws from the plate above the light kit to drop it down, then disconnect the wiring (cap off the wires from the fan until you are finished), remove the light kit from the plate by loosening the nut. Then follow the instructions with the new light kit and undo the previous steps to reassemble the lower part of the fan with the new light kit.
What is the proper way to install blades of a receptacle up or down?
Up. ---- I'm not sure what the question is getting at. USUALLY THIS QUESTION IS ASKED WITH REGARD TO THE "GROUND" PRONG of a standard 3wire, 120 volt receptacle In the USA there are no requirements which dictate whether a receptacle outlet should be mounted with the ground UP or DOWN. In fact, it is also proper to mount the receptacle horizontally.
If a light switch that is connected to an outlet which is burnt out and when you replaced the outlet it burnt out within two weeks so how do you change the switch to operate recessed ceiling light?
you must have to much of a load on the outlet or didnt tighten the screws holding the wires tight enough , it should not go out that quickly. if you want to wire it for recess you first have to check if you can get to the location in the attic above the switch. and you need to be able to fish a wire down to the switch up to the recesed lite. which sometimes is not the easiest job to do , better to just call in the electrician for this job
How does a bosch relay work?
They come in many types, and are used in quite a few different vehicles. Ford's version is a gray relay with no mounting ear, and is used in the new underhood wiring modules. GMC and Chevy uses them too, but are usually black. There are look-alikes too, but the numbers on the terminals give them away. Most after market relays will have a mounting tab for mounting it with a screw. Always mount them with the terminals facing down, or they will get water inside and fail.
How do you installing a ceiling fan on 14 foot ceilings?
Yes. Most ceiling fans have parts that let you either put the fan close to the ceiling (which is typical for an 8' ceiling) or let it hang down farther from the ceiling. All my ceilings are 8' and I have 4 ceiling fans in 4 different rooms and they work good by letting me reduce my AC usage, which is much more expensive.

If the ceiling fan is attached to real property (installed), then it is real property. If it is in the trunk of your car, it's personal property. If it was installed when a prospective buyer inspected your home and you subsequently took it down and put it in the trunk of your car, you will need a lawyer.
How far down from ceiling do you hang a fan if ceiling is 11 feet high?
The same height as the downrod is. Don't buy a low profile or flush mount ceiling fan, because these are specially designed for places where the ceiling is less than eight feet high. I would suggest you buy a traditional ceiling fan or a industrial ceiling fan. Industrial ceiling fans are specially designed for high and big places.
