Can this be used only as fan and humidifier?

This is an excellent heating unit and uses infrared and ceramic coils to heat an area. It does not dry the air out like traditional heaters. As far as I know it is not a humidifier, just a heater with different fan speeds and auto cut-off. Great space heater.

No humidifier function at all. There may be a fan-only function if you turn the thermostat all the way down, but you would be much better off with a "real" fan or a large air purifier.

Sure it can be used as an exhaust fan. You would need a 140mm exhaust fan port on the computer case for it to be practical though. The fan is designed to be installed on heat sinks. The fan like all computer fans is designed to run off of the computer power supply 12V connectors. The fan dimensions are 140x150x25 mm.

It appears it can, but in a way that wasn't obvious to me. There are some dry contacts which are presumably just on/off switches you could use to power a solenoid on a whole house humidifier. I'm maybe a mid-level DIYer with marginal knowledge of HVACS and wiring.The menus do have an allowance to control humidity.

That is not really what it was designed for. It is used to redirect harmful fumes from solder/desoldering in an enclosed area. A large fan might suit your needs a bit better, and less expensive.

I use mine in a large open room and it works well as a diffuser. As a humidifier, I would recommend a smaller room.

No. Definitely not. If you're wanting something that adds a measurable amount of moisture to the air, get an actual humidifier. This diffuser is only about 6 inches tall, and outputs less than 1 cup of water over about 6-8 hours. I use it for aromatherapy and it sits on my desk at work. It's that small.

yes you can, but for the love of all things holy please don't. Find a brand name cooler with great reviews if you need an external fan support. My first stop would be to check if the fans are as clean as possible.

Yes, "fan only" is one of the settings. Also you have complete access to all of the Thermostat settings via a WiFi connection.

Of course you can use it as a case fan, but this fan is designed for very high reliability applications. I use two of them on my CPU cooler. You can get much cheaper fans for the case where a failure will not be a serious problem and replacement is usually easy.

No. You could replace old fans with new fans or simply clean the fans periodically.

The flow through this unit would probably be too large to be used this way. A better choice might be the "Panasonic FV-10NLF1 WhisperLine 120 CFM In-Line Fan, 4-Inch Duct" unit Amazon sells. I use the 120 cfm unit as an exhaust fan on a switch for a single bathroom. I use the 240 cfm unit as a vent fan on a timer for four rooms. You will probably need to connect the power to this unit through the furnace controls so that it is switched on and off with the furnace. Don't mount the fan too close to the furnace to avoid temperatures over 140 degrees.

You can use the fan to exhaust purposes. It can be used in an unheated garage as long as it's not exposed to outside weather.

I don't think so, fans are designed to suck air through one port,unless fan is reversible,do what I did and buy longer inlet ductwork.

I would say it would be way to weak for that purpose. This should primarily be used as an entertainment center fan and it goes a good job at what it does. Might as well get a regular fan for what you're trying to do.

Yes, you could, however I don't think I'd recommend it. I've found on some hot humid days/nights, the fan will come on by itself and stay on for hours. It's because the attic geats so hot. This pulls the air conditioned air out of the house, so we always manually shut it off after it does it's (great) job of removing humidity during a shower etc.

Yes. I use mine just like that. Just keep the fan on the highest setting or you can ruin the motor.

No, the fan does not run all the time. Once you have set your humidity level the unit will only activate to maintain the the desired level.
