Can this unit be used as a through the wall unit?

Yes and no. It has an intake vents on one side. The wall can not be very thick. I used it a threw wall. It was a thick insulated New England wall. The hole cut on the inside of the wall just fit the front. The hole on the outside of the wall was larger. I boxed in a pocket so I did not cover the vent.

I am guessing that it could. When I mounted it in a window, a metal sleeve was mounted first; then the unit slid into it. I would imagine the sleeve could be inserted into a wall opening.

I am using it on the windows, but since it come with a metallic body if you do a proper structural job in your wall, I can't see the problem. By the way it work great an quiet...

You have to put it in an window, or a hole in the wall that is at the size you need per dimensions on the box. I think this one is not the one with a heating unit on it there is one with heating on it i wanted to get it works good in winter. This is a 220v keep i mind too. ( in other words it can be installed throught the wall if you got a hole to put it in it ).

I would check with a professional carpenter if you have or will be putting in a wall unit. It's a different project from what I took on as a DIY.

Sorry I missed the fact that your using a window. This unit I believe can be used that way, but its more for a wall opening.

I do have one of these units and installed it myself in our basement. As to the question if a drain through the wall would work. Yes you can run the drain through the garage wall. I ran mine up and along the rafters to my drain.

Yes, you can, as long that the output (measured in Watt) is lower than 100. Before you put it in the wall, make sure you choose the right voltage (on the back). There are different slots, so make sure you use the right one.

Yes sir, it can!!! We actually own two of these. We use one of ours "through the wall" in our front room, and our second one we use "through the window" in our bedroom. They are both fantastic, and extremely reliable!!! I hope this helps.

Hi,I am sorry to say, but this unit cannot penetrate through walls. this will make you, or anyone who is in the apt very sick.

We mounted it through the wall in a guest house. It has had daily use for over a year. I'm very pleased with my purchase. It's a great unit.

If I remember correctly, I don't think it can go through walls, needs to be an open space. So, I'd check the specs before buying.

mine is in a window. i do not see why it couldn't go in a wall, depending on the depth of the unit of course.

Yes, it's designed to be installed through a wall. For dimensions, get the installation manual from Broan's web site. For use under a kitchen cabinet, use your judgement -- You would need to provide electrical power in the wall and you might either have to install a separate on/off switch or to trim the chain that's used to open the outer door as well as turn the fan on.

The unit extends 2.5 inches beyond the mounting flange, and that's not allowing for wire out the back. It would not fit in a 2 inch think wall. I bought mine for a different purpose.

We installed the unit I purchased in the window and from my understanding you could also install this unit in the wall, hope this helps.

The Base unit only can be wall mounted, however I think you would be much better off using without the wall monunt.

Yes you can install this in the wall. You may need to add 2 by 4's at the base and for framing of the unit. This would be for support IN the wall. Make sure the unit is well supported.

Hi, the back of this unit is not finished so it is better to use it against a wall. Thank you!

I installed mine through the wall just fine. I was in the process of remodeling and built the opening just to fit with studs and headers on sides, top and bottom. The unit is wider than most studspaces, so one stud had to be cut and reinforced top and bottom. It seems to work fine.
