Is it possible to reverse the air flow? I need to blow air into a large weather balloon.

No, sorry. Plus considering the size of the motor, it would probably take days to fill!

Yes! Very easy to use.. Just slide the balloon on and blow it up. Worked great!

Sorry - I'm not sure what that is. I have only used it to blow up the swimming pool, not take it down, but I think the instructions indicate you just reverse it to suck the air back out.

haven't tried, don't know why it wouldn't be. without wind, of course. The one I ordered and received did not have the red pointed nozzle on the tube, but it works fine anyway. Keep it pretty full.

I ended up returning this unit because it was a dehumidifier and I needed a humidifier. I do not believe it's reversible.

No. In fact I just realized that you have to remove the glass from the light to access the switch that reverses the air flow. Not a convenient design since I have cathedral ceilings.

No. We already had an air compressor which we used to pump it up. I wouldn't necessarily recommend trying to blow it up yourself unless you are extremely patient. It can be done (I did it part way once), but took a while. A bike pump would probably work also.

Not sure about this. perhaps a can of compressed air will blow it out. Good luck

No, it doesn't have that option. You can use fan mode but it doesn't bring in outside air.

Joe, you can do it, but it will reduce the volume of air that it is pulling through. By reducing it may cause problems with the fan in the future.

It has flaps that retain air when you release the pump, so yes you could. It also comes with attachments that would fit nicely at the end of a balloon.

Yes it does blow helium balloons but of course they wont stand up alone since its just air. Works really well. I'll try to upload a photo of the arch I did with it

Using this balloon would be overkill. Way too big. Our balloon burst before it reached it's full size. There was just a slight breeze but it twisted a lot in the breeze. We didn't even use helium and we had a hard time keeping it on the ground. I have no idea how much helium you would need, but we spent several hours using an air compressor and it didn't reach full capacity, only about 15 ft.

I does have reverse air. There is a switch on the head plate to change the flow.

No, It only can blow air in one direction. Bringing air in, or out. You have to remove the fan from the window, and turn it around to perform each function.

Is it possible to reverse the fan? - I'm not an electronics expert but it might be possible. The only reason I can see that you would want to do this is to pull air "into" the existing exhaust and out the current "intake" making it pull hot air in from within a smaller area. There might be better products to do this. Slowing it down shouldn't take much more than putting in a resistor or two. But, again, I'm not an electronics expert, so that would take some research on how to accomplish this.

Yes, I did the same thing. The vent was movable to blow from back or the top of the unit.
