Are you able to set the sidewall fan to exhaust/Intake, or is it set to exhaust/intake permanently? (Are you able to switch, basically!)

Any of the fans can be set to exhaust or intake. The case has two fan controls near the on switch. Each fan control can operate up to 3 fans each, so you can actually add 2 more fans if needed.

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.

Normally, a fan at the back of the case should exhaust air. You want to pull air all the way through the case, and the power supply (also normally at the back) pulls air out of the case - the back fan should assist this. If you use additional fans at the front of the case, you want these configured to intake air. I've also seen configurations where exhaust is at the top, and intake at the bottom, but you want to make sure to include the disk drives in the air flow pattern.

kind of confused by previous answers. Does it has a switch to control the in-take or exhaust? Some answers says it has a switch some other says there is no switch.

Hunter has a wall switch designed for that reason. If you call them and give your fan model number they will give you all of the informationyou need.

It will run the fan ONLY in fan mode, however this is supposed to run the fan about 30% of the time. I do not know if there is any way to set specific times for the fan only.

Yes you can set them up as exhaust fans. Just make sure they are pointing outward from your case. I have 3 of them set for exhaust on a 800D case and they work lovely.

I didn't use the fan. I needed an exhaust fan that would exhaust to the outside atmosphere..........not room to room.

You press the low speed button to start fan, then, press the bottom button which is 2 arrows. Give it time to stop for it to change the direction. Takes a few seconds.

What I did was open the case and take the guts out. I ported them to a case with a 120mm fan. I had to solder a bit and it was a pain in the butt. The PSU is decent here but it sounds like a jet engine. Mine had TWO 80mm fans. Insane. Now I have one decent, quiet PSU. Another option is to simply unplug one of the fans - unscrew the back and unplug the intake fan (facing the Mobo). You probably want to leave the exhaust fan intact.

It only has an on/off switch, so it only exhausts. If you want it to run in reverse all the time, you could wire it backwards, but there is no forward/reverse switch, only on/off.

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.

How is it with sound? I may be one of a few, but I like my fans to make noise because it blocks out the irking street sounds of cars going by and loud music. I'd rather have fan noise than that irking noise!

I have this fan on my transmission Cooler for my dragster. I just have an on and off toggle switch for its one speed. So you could possibly put a potentiator style switch on it so you would have different speeds but I'm not the expert on that.

yeah, that would be extremely annoying :) I have mine running a PC case fan that blows on it while its on, then the built-in fan never runs, and PC fan is MUCHO quieter.

Yes they can be used as intake and exhaust fans, but it depends on which way you face them. On the sides of the fan case there are labels that shows the direction that the fan turns and the direction the air moves. So if you want to make that fan a exhaust, just have that arrow point away from the inside of the case. Also vise versa if you want intake.

Almost tooo powerful as an exhaust fan- much cheaper and quieter alternatives
