Is it possible to reverse the fans? I would like to have the register be controlled on the main floor and blow air into the basement.

I do not see any way to reverse the air flow itself. It has rudimentary controls i.e. a dial which will activate the fan to turn on or off when it detects it is warmer or cooler air to circulate the air upward. The register fits into an opening (a standard air register hole), so which ever way the register is facing is the direction the air will be directed.

No, the back of the register is a solid piece of metal and the botton is cut out for the floor vent. I believe that if you tried to modify the register by cutting a hole in it, it would become too flimsy and you would not be able to mount it.

Sorry, I use mine in the basement as well. It would be about like running an air conditioner.

As far as we know, you can't. You must physically get to the fan and flip the switch on the fan.

Is the motor reversible? Honestly don't know...and I imagine reversing the wiring hookups wouldn't work, either. If you're trying to suck the outside air in, rather than forcing the inside air out, wouldn't that depend on the fan blade design?

I just checked out my remote and there is NO reverse so the reverse is on the fan. Hope that this helps

I can't see any way to reverse mine, and would be grateful if someone can tell me how to this. Having said that, mine operates blowing air down all the time, which I find works well in winter to bring warm air down, and creates a nice breeze in the summer. If you look at the blade shape, they really are designed to blow downwards so am doubtful how well they would reverse (if it was possible). Apart from this, I love the fan. It is very quiet, elegant, changes speed smoothly. Love it! (and if anyone can tell me how to reverse direction, please let me know how - I'm very curious).

Well, the whole point in most cases is to get the air out of the cabinet, and suck in cooler fresh air. Certainly the fans can move air around inside the cabinet, but I would guess most people want to exchange inside for outside air which would require holes.

My unit fan runs continuously no matter what the setting. I never hear the compressor kick in.I am concerned about my electric bill also. How did any of you speak to a representative? All I got was to e-mail them and I have not heard back. Right now I am trying to use the bucket and see if shuts off when the bucket is full. What is a good setting for a large basement? I would appreciate any help.

The fans can be reversed to either push air into the enclosure or pull air out.

Yes the fan is reversible. I have this fan In my shop. It came with a wall mounted switch that has 5 FORWARD speeds and 5 BACKWARD speeds. I will email you a picture of the switch if you want. I just seen the question you asked, I am sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. These other guys are wrong.

Either way you just have to unmount then remount the fans in the opposite direction.

Hi Carol, Thanks for the question. Yes, this beautiful fan does have a reverse switch. We hope this helps. Carol, if you have any other questions, or would like to place an order, you can reach out to Terry right now. He's literally sitting right next to his phone :)Hansen Wholesale1-800-201-1193P.S. Thanks for the recommendation Earlene :)

Remember this is a DC 12 volt fan so just connect one wire to the positive terminal of the battery and the other to the negative terminal. You may reverse it depending on where (direction) you want the air to flow. Put a switch on either wire and you're all set. Just a heads up, I think this fan is too loud to be used as an indoor fan. Good luck.

There are two versions of this fan available, check the options and you'll find the digital version which goes in your window one way and has a control for reverse. You'll spend an extra $10.00. If you want to save a little money you can choose the manual one which requires you to flip the entire unit.

No, I cannot reverse the direction of the fans. The fans only blow up toward the bottom of the laptop.
