Will it fit in a 40" window opening? Is the fan electrically reversible?

Yes it will easily fit within a 40" window but the 2-speed fan switch is NOT reversible. You will have to pull the fan out of the window and turn it the other way to change flow direction. This is a no-frills fan but that keeps the price low. It's not whisper quiet but it's not extremely noisy either. My only complaint is the length of the power cord is a little short for my needs (maybe 3'). I run mine continuously to vent a room and this fan has proven reasonable in performance. I have purchased 3 in the past decade or so and will continue to do so as long as the price remains low. I hope this helps!

You can electronically reverse it my pressing a button. I am not sure about the size but you will have to measure your window against the listed dimensions.

If you are referring to the length from the front of the unit back to the window opening it is approximately 4 inches.

I have owned 2 of these fans over the years & I love them. Both of mine were installed indoors in my family room . As long as it won't get weather on it, I think it would work in the space you are asking about.

Did you see the fan dimensions I have a regular size window and it fits tight but it fits

No. It is for safety reasons only. The fan is meant to be installed to the inside of the window's bug screen.

The fan should be small enough to fit in a bathroom window. I would make sure to measure both the fan and the window to make sure. This is really a very usable fan for its size. We have two.

I realize that this answer is a little late, but we could not measure the A/C until we took it out for the winter [There are blocks of wood and shims involved because we have replacement windows]. The unit itself is about 16 inches wide. Each expander can adjust from 4 to 10 inches. So, this A/C unit could be used in window openings from 24 to 36 inches. If you used this unit in a 40 inch wide window, you would have at least 4 inches you would need to fill with something else, like a block of styrofoam. Hope this helps.

UPDATE...From other comments there seem some add-on extensions included with fan can be 4 inches or 5 inches. Discrepencies maybe because measureurments is on and off fan. Mine ia a solid plastic 4 inches when ATTACHED to fan. MEASURMENT NOTES: EXTRACT size "by the amount of inches that the ends of the fan fits inside the tracks which is larger opening that the opening of the window". EXAMPLE: Tract to tract opening might be 34 3/4 inches (which is what mine is) but actual openind is 33 inches.

I don't have the exact measurements but I should let you know I put the fan in sideways as these are sliding metal frame windows, approximately 3 foot high by 2 1/2 foot wide? It fills most of the 3 foot height that way and you can extend the extension even when it is on it's side.

Yes, the Hunter 25517 Summer Breeze 52 inch fan is reversible. I have two of this model in my home. Definitely a nice feature, since I have vaulted ceilings in the master bedroom and great room and enjoy being able to move the warm air at the ceiling outward and down in the winter and reverse it for summer to supply cooling breezes directly downward and outward in the seating areas.

I installed mine in a horizontally sliding window. It's a non-std windows at 34" tall. I just turned the fan 90 degrees and installed it inside the window sill. I can still open and close the window with the fan in it and removing it is easy with the storm guard. My standard windows are 39" tall so you would need to shim this fan with a 2" block of wood on the bottom. The storm guard extension actually extend to about 37 inches. Or you could get the Air King 20" window fan (also avail on Amazon) which should fit a 38-43" inch tall horizontally sliding window (if the 16" Lasko, which is made by Air King is any guide to the max extensions on the storm guard). Here's a pic: http://bit.ly/1hxnzGk Note the window being closed to the left edge of the fan. There's a very small gap there. I used some foam to fill it, but then discovered it wasn't really needed. For a 2100 sq ft house, medium speed (which is fairly quiet) is plenty to bring in cool night air.

The fan has a built-in accordion-like extender panel that extends from the control panel side up to 6.7" (17cm). On the left side you can slide in a supplied, but not installed, rigid non-collapsible 2.4" (6cm) panel. Total extended width of the unit is 36.7" (93.2 cm) and will work either horizontally or vertically. In vertical orientation, the accordion-like extender panel must be at the top as it likely will not support the weight of the fan without collapsing.

the fantastic fan fits a standard 14x14 opening. I have three of them, they are truly fantastic. Be careful not to poke holes in the screen when removing for cleaning... Hope this helps

I don't think this fan will cover an opening that big. I know I've seen bigger ones that are large squares at Home Depot
