Would this fan work if it were mounted on the wall?

It won't blow straight out from the wall. You have to fold it open for it to draw air in from the back.

Not unless you wrap some short of strap around the canister also. But it is possible. It comes with a mounting bracket for the fan.

That would work fine. Just make sure you feel which way the fan is blowing and turn it on the appropriate side to blow down.

You may need to purchase a different base but the fan itself would be fine. The mount inside the base will allow for an angle but the cover may be difficult.

No the fan isn't strong enough for that. I had to buy another fan just for my use.

I would think not because it has to hang straight down; not from an angle. We ended up returning the fan because the light casts dots on the surrounding walls. Really tacky. We called the parent company Ellington for design recommendations. They were very helpful. www.ellingtonfans.com

I can see how it could be installed in a wall. You would have to leave the majority of the unit outside to allow the fan to vent properly.

Possibly, if both the animal and fan are placed correctly. It works beautifully for people though.

In order to mount to the wall, you have to tilt the fan certain ways then use 2 nails, which were provided in the package. Every time I tilt the fan, it stopped working. If I tilt it back, as if it was going to be sit on the surface, it started to work again. So it cannot be mounted.

yes, I think so. If you can mount it without water intrusion issues then it will work. Great fan, been very reliable. does have freeze protection, so won't work in cold climates to well.

Yup, it should work fine. So long as it is the same size, should be 120mm. Might double check though. If you check out the picture, you can put any fan on there so long as it's the same size. It just holds on with the little metal brackets.

I think so if you ceiling mount it (I don't remember if this is an option). I really like this fan/light combo, very attractive for a $100 fan.

I would think so. I don't remember where I put this on mine but I use various versions of this fan for all the fans in my computer. Should work just fine.

Yes. But the unit would not be flush with the wall. Rather it would sit on a mounting bracket (included) and be perpendicular to the wall.

Yes, it can be mounted on the wall. I have it installed horizontally with good airflow around it.

It could be mounted inside a 2"x6" wall. The fan will not fit in most walls, which are 2"x4" studs. I replaced an Air King 50-CFM fan that was wall mounted, even though I moved the fan to the ceiling. I find the ceiling installation more effective for keeping the moisture moving out during and after a shower.

I would say yes. the fan is very lightweight, and the base actually has some weight to it due to the magnets that attach
