Can you use this as a fan only? I don't want a mister, just a fan for outdoors. Thanks!

Yes I only use the fan outside. You have to put the tube on the fan if you want to mist. It is a very good fan I love it outside or in its really powerful.

This is a mister and a pretty good one. Also you can use it as a fan, just do not turn on water.

Yes, I also didn't want to use the mister so I didn't attach it. I like this fan a lot, hope you do too.

Yes, as long as you don't hook up to a hose and turn on, I don't see why you couldn't!

Only if you want to use the internal blower( which does not move very much air). I use a extra regular fan to circulate air in the garage.

I do not think this Vornado shop fan would work well outside. Of all the Vornado fans that I have I was disappointed in this fan. I think it needs a room for the air to bounce off of. This fan does not put out the air that I would expect from a shop fan.

Havent used it outside, but cant see why it wouldnt, its powerful enough...... A very well built little fan!

I used this fan to move dampness out from under house after a water pipe leak. It is best not to use in early morning and at night time when the humidity is high. It has some automated controls, but I do not trust them and just turn mine off and on when I feel it the best time. You have to have a second open, unblocked vent to draw in drier air and an open vent to mount in over on in for it to work best. As others have said, there is no damper and wind could blow back from the outside if the fan was turned off. For me that is no problem. Good luck.

Definitely not. I wouldn't use it even in a protected area where subject to either temperature changes or humidity changes of any extent. Strictly an inside fan.

Fan can be used alone. Not very powerful, but will dry nails in reasonable amount of time.

Yes, use a small battery operated fan and you will be fine. The rain fly cuts down the air flow, so use a fan

We are using this fan in our three season porch. It is not an outdoor fan. We love it!

I don't believe it is specifically designed for outdoor use, but if it is used in a semi-enclosed area like a screened-in porch where it is not directly exposed to rain, it should work okay. I've seen similar fans mounted in the ceiling of front porches. Make sure it is properly grounded and powered through a GFCI breaker.

No, this fan is only for indoors. It is so very good looking that the outdoors will ruin it.

I bought six of them, but they are all installed indoors. They are gorgeous, absolutely silent fans. I'm sorry I couldn't answer your question regarding outdoor installation.

I personally wouldn't use this fan outdoors ... I think the beautiful finish and the wood blades would get ruined pretty quickly in the elements, depending on your environment.

No way, this is an indoor fan only. There are some good outdoor fans at Lowes.com

This would probably not work as a cooler in the summer. The temperature settings range from hot to warm. You can't just use it as a fan, it will still blow warm air out.

I own 2 of these fans and installed both of them fairly easy. I don't think it's rated for outdoor use but I don't see why you couldn't be. So far they have been great fans

Bought the heater for my mom, and really can't say if you can just use it as a fan.
