Will this fan work to bring in cool outside air to the home in summer. Thru the wall install to the exterior of the home.

Not sure I understand the question I use the fan to move hot air from my living room where I have I wood burning Stove. In the summer I move air conditioned air from living room inti othe r areas in house It does both well.

While it may be what you're looking for, I wouldn't recommend it. This fan is not weatherproof and is also not sealed. It would allow both bugs and airflow to come in through the gaps even when it's not running. Plus many exterior walls are too thick for this fans maximum thickness setting. Good luck though.

Yes, and it will even work better in the winter. But, there is no flap to keep bugs out or water if it rained. You would need to protect it from the weather.

No it is ment to be placed in an interior wall between two rooms. It brings air from a room that is air conditioned to one that is not.

The fan requires venting to the outside. I had mine installed by electricians doing work in my house as you may also wish to use a new multi-switch to control the various functions of the product (light, night-light, fan and heater), followed by ducting the fan to the outside via a contractor the following week (our contractor charged $125 for this service). If you're handy, perhaps you can do these yourself, but in my case, the costs of installation greatly exceeded the costs of the fan.

It could be used anywhere, providing you have sufficient head room. I wouldn't probably install this nice of a fan in that environment.

it's only a fan. It will blow whatever temperature air from the area you place it in. The movement of air will feel cooler then stationary air.

No. We ordered it for that reason and while the online description was not clear, the directions/instructions inside the box were very clear that it was for INDOOR use only. We returned the fan since we needed an outdoor use fan.

Outdoor use is fine only under circumstances where the humidity is very low and the fan is never exposed to rain or moisture. It certainly moves enough air for outdoor use.

It's a horrible idea to use this fan to get air into a room to be honest. This is simply a computer fan, and the dust and dirt it will pull it from outside will ruin itself. Its also just 120mm, perfect in a computer situation but not for a house... Yes, in theory your configuration would work though.

I wouldn't recommend that application. This fan is made to move air from a case or cabinet not to exhaust a bathroom. It's not big enough

It would move air, but what is your intent? If you use it as an exhaust fan you would have to move air from someplace else in the room (open window). If used as an intact fan, then it would make a positive pressure environment if no outside vent/window/door is open.

I wouldn't necessarily recommend using this fan outdoors. It's not a very heavy duty fan to start with and is very cheaply constructed so I wouldn't use it outside.

Placed in a window it should do the trick. We also use ours to blow ac air from one room to another. Vornado fans are very sturdy.

1. Yes, it is intended to be installed through an exterior wall. 2. See the product description (approx 14.5x14.5" on exterior side, 13.5x13.5" interior grill, fits through walls 4.5 to 9.5" thick) 3. Not sure why you'd want to do that with this, it's intended to be mounted through a wall, with the kitchen cabinet door closed you wouldn't get enough air flow and would probably burn the motor out. Plus the outside door opening and the on/off switch are handled by the chain you see in the picture, so I doubt you'd want to have to reach to the back of a cabinet to operate the fan.

We live in Michigan & bought our fan a year ago. It stayed outside, uncovered but next to the house throughout the worst winter ever and it stil works just fine. My only regret is not to have bought 2 fans.... Good luck!

Yes it can. You have to cut hole in wall and install outside vent. I did it my self. Got outside vent @ Menards. Nice unit.

I haven't used it for that purpose - just for cooling down rooms once it starts to cool down outside. Sorry I can't be of more help.

No,this fan we're using in our bedroom.I'm not sure that you couldn't use it outdoors.

The way we have it installed there is a separate wired control knob that we installed that can be placed anywhere you want it. We also installed a thermostat that will cut the fan on at the desired temperature. We love the fan and we are able to move our air conditioned exterior wall room to an interior only wall room without any ductwork. It works great!
