Will this work as an inline fan for a long dryer vent? Can it handl the heat from a dryer?

According to the label in the picture the maximum temperature is only 140 deg. F, or 60 deg C.A more suitable fan for dryer venting may be a similar inline fan with a higher rating, at 130 deg C or 266 deg F.LEDwholesalers 4" Inline Booster Duct Fan 63CFM, GYO2405

This will work for your dryer vent. It will be able to handle the heat from the dryer. If your ducting is fairly long, please look into our 6" duct fan since it is a little more powerful.

amazon asked me to respond to this..... and i don't know the answer... sorry.... as i don't know anything about the portable dryer ..... it uses the regular size 'hose' that would normally go from regular dryer to the wall vent.....

I don't think it will work well for this application. I have used it to heat and cool a small bedroom (350 sq ft) as a supplement to heat and central air. I think it adds/subtracts about five degrees maximum. So I would not think it would be effective at all in a larger space with no other HVAC source - especially your heat!

I use it only for fans in bathrooms. I have installed 4 of them and they all work great. I dont see why they would not work as well for a ceiling heater. they are just timing and turning off/on the device no matter what wattage the device itself draws. you could check with the manufacturer to be sure. good luck.

I don't know, I've used only for dryer vent. It is a great brush, sturdy, long and flexible.

No. A fan that is used for a dryer booster must be approved specifically for that application.

If you do not have an outside vent as I do not you will need about an 8 ft., flexible, dryer duct vent. Hook it up to the back of the dryer and bring it up and over the top or around the side of the dryer. I put mine on top the the dryer and it works great. You could put it on the floor but FYI = there will be wet condensation from the warm dryer air on the floor. Don't want anyone to slip and fall.

It seems to depend on the model they send you. I have had previous fans of the same model number that let me set the fan direction independently but the later model did not offer that choice. It was both fans either in or out. They are 8 inch fans and I don't know their CFM or wattage use. I do find it quite effective as a kitchen window exhaust fan. I got many years of use out of my first one and hated to give it up but it was cracking due to age and heavy use.

I believe as long as you have a place to vent it out of the space you are trying to cool, it should work. Just make sure that where ever you vent it out to, that it is ok to vent really warm air in there. This is a powerful machine and the air that it circulates out is hot. But it works really well cooling the space, I had it in an above garage room that would normally be very hot and it worked great!

I had to send it back because it is very small. Also I would not use it for a heating vent, I was gonna use it for a air condition vent.

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

I know exactly what you are making and this should work great. Might possibly be more than what you wish for but if the audible level isn't a concern for you then this will do great. I am using mine to ventilate a foam structured "quiet box" for my camping generator. To get a good idea of the power this fan produces I can tell you that if you sit it on a flat surface and have the air flow being sucked from that flat surface, this fan will need adequate force to be pulled off while running. Hope this helps, its a great fan at a great price. Just don't expect to not hear it.

Hi,The fan will move air quite well for a small fan/heater. However, it is really not powerful cooling fan. It is a fan heater combo that really does a great job of heating small areas like the motorhome.I have had this fan/heater for a few years now and it works very well. Jon Green

Yes. This can be installed as a low profile fan if you purchase the shorter 3 inch extender tube and use it in place of the longer tube that comes with the fan.

No, this is not the fan for your application. You need a centrifugal fan. Just use that phrase in Amazon "search". They're more expensive than this one, but they'll do the job.

I used a flexible vent typically used for dryers. Not sure what size that it but pretty inexpensive.

Because of how the dryer expands when the air starts to flow through it, I don't think it would work if you have longer hair ( therefore requiring bigger rollers). It should be fine with small to medium size rollers though.Hope this helps some.
