Is it only exhaust? Can I mount reverse, or change spin direction? (I'm looking to mount horizontal, and draw air up)

Just for exhaust. You would have to build a frame extended out to mount it in reverse and ceate draw.

I think you can do what you want, but it will be some work. You could probably drill a new set of holes in the tube so you can mount the brackets on the other end. That would allow you to mount the intake side flush to a surface. You might have to do something to reroute the wire for power (maybe a notch or hole in the tube with something to protect the wire from the metal edge), but that should be easy.

The way the shell is designed it is made to blow in one direction. It is designed to install on the inside and to blow out. I wouldn't try to alter the wiring.

Yep it will work.....dont have to change spin.... I dont want to sound like a smartass ,but I don't think the other answer is correct. I think if you just mount it correctly for what you need it to do. You wont need to change anything with the fan itself .

mine has fake vent type indentations on the side, but no external open areas for fan exhaust. If there is a tiny fan inside, I sure don't know about it. I have used the USB ports, they work well

Cold air intake and bigger exhaust ! If you put stage 2 injectors you should upgrade head studs to ARP studs (probably a good idea to change studs regardless)

The vent is at the back of the unit. The exhaust blower motor can be positioned or repositioned to blow the exhaust either backward of upward.

Yes that is correct. Rotation direction is a switch mounted on the fan motor assembly.

As others have stated, there are indicator (s) on the housing that dictate which way air travels. This is normally found on any fan out there. The rear fan is generally set up for exhaust as it follows the flow of air thru a case (the front is an intake, rear exhaust...air flows from the front to the back). In my opinion, a top exhaust fan is needed as well (remember hot air rises) if your case supports it. Remember this Mr. Thompson, as a rule of thumb the intake/exhaust setup should generally have equal numbers (if four fans, two should be exhaust, two intake). Go to www.tomshardware.com and type in the search "fan configuration". This will give you a better overall understanding of the physics of case pressure, fan setup, rpms, fan speed, noise, etc. The debate of the mighty fan configuration is as diverse and sometimes heated as religion...so prepare yourself.....and welcome to the wonderful world of "Why is there smoke coming from my case"? Do your homework and read reviews on the multitudes of fans out there and you will end up with a balanced case.

Idk about reversing the polarity. But, you can take the polished frame off the fan and mount it on the otherside push air out. I tried this with mine in my entertainment center but I found it didn't pull enough air out of the cabinet and was more efficient pushing air into it. Hope this helps!

the position is fixed. And is already in the most optimal position. Not sure why you'd want it at a greater angle. I'm very satisfied with it and have had no problems what so ever. I also recommend the Two Brothers Black Series exhaust.

You can mount this fan either way. Look for the molded arrow on the side of the fan to identify airflow direction. Its most efficient when it pulls air through the computer chassis and exhausts it out the back. If you plan to mount it to the side of your chassis to cool your CPU you'll want to bring cool air in from the outside.

I'm sorry but I didnt try mounting it horizontally and it's now in a position which makes it difficult for me to remove. However, I don't see why it would not work mounted horizontally since I have other brands of computer fans that are mounted horizontally and blowing upwards.

I don't know why the designed the stand this way, but you can reverse the direction of the headers so the face away from the tank by swapping them to the other side of the motor. If you look at the picture provided on this site, that is how they have mounted the Headers. I hope this helps

I do not see any way to reverse the air flow itself. It has rudimentary controls i.e. a dial which will activate the fan to turn on or off when it detects it is warmer or cooler air to circulate the air upward. The register fits into an opening (a standard air register hole), so which ever way the register is facing is the direction the air will be directed.

Yes you can run it backwards. Guys do it on the nissan Titan all the time. It's how the factory setup is and it does increase horsepower.

I found I had to hammer the fan blade onto the shaft (hurr hurr...shaft) that comes out of the engine. I think it has some markings on it to indicate how it is meant to be rotated. Once I pounded it on there it seemed to work better. Another problem is you may have the fan blade on backwards e.g. the front is pointing backwards. If that is the case, the blades will likely not generate enough forward facing air.

yes if thats what you want but no need for that it's just a exhaust fan ,l stick it in my window and just leave it,your question answer is no reverse

The unit itself WILL turn opposite direction - BUT the fans themselves will only turn one direction - if that makes sense! I also recommend purchasing the remote control - makes it very easy to use. Overall very satisfied with our purchase. A real head turner!

You can set the airflow direction to exhaust (out), intake (in), or exchange (one blade blowing air in and the second blade blowing air out) by pressing the air flow button.
