Can this unit be mounted directly to the wall or does it mount to an electrical box?

The unit is flat on the back so it could be mounted directly to a wall provide you had a hole for the wires

As with ANY electrical device, to pass code requirements, it must be mounted on an approved box, either PVC or metal. Anything worth doing, is worth doing correctly.

I think it could be mounted either way.. I just fastened mine to a post and installed a male plug on one end and a female plug on the other ,and plugged it in line with the dehumidifier. The wires come out of the back,so mounting on the wall would require a hole through the wall for the wires.

The wall plate itself connects to a standard outlet box like any other wall plate (AC outlet, cable outlet, etc..). I found a handy one at ACE hardware that you can install from the front (outside) of the wall by just cutting the hole, inserting the box, and tighten down the "molly" like tabs. Run the wires inside the wall and into the box before inserting the outlet box into the wall. I hope that helps.Take a look at "Thomas & Betts #b120r Sg Old Work Box" on Amazon for an example of the outlet box.

This unit is designed to be installed wall mounted. It can be mounted on the ceiling but it will not be effective. It will defeat the purpose. I do not recommend it to be installed in the ceiling

It will bolt to a wall or signpost. It comes with two screws with holes in the back of the box.

Does this require an electrical connection from the cieling or is it just a mount and plug in the wall light?

It mounts to the wall not the picture. You need to be able to change the battery's so it needs to be secured to something fixed. Hope this helps.

It primarily mounts to only a wall, however, using a J-hook you can hang it from a ceiling which works out fine. Definitely worth the investment though!

This unit need to be hard wired as you receive it. Since it mounts thru a wall you would have to be able to access an existing electrical circuit to tap into. Depending on how you plan to mount the fan you could wire an extension cord that terminates with a male plug. You would have to know what your local building codes would allow.

Hi, you will need a electrical box installed, hopefully by somebody that is qualified for such things, I believe it can be mounted on a overhang or wall mounted. I hope this helps.

Yes, it can be mounted to the wall. The back area has a plastic bracket with places for two screw heads to slip underneath them to hold it to the wall.

Yes it could be mounted to an exterior wall with anchors however, it is not a "weatherproof" exterior rated box.

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.

Sorry. But we have not considered mounting on wall. I believe it can be done as long as you don't mind hanging wire/s. Also you need to access the various Ports provided on the back of the Unit.

You only need to attach it to the wall with two screws. As far as electrical you can make an extension cord or hard wire it if you want.

Yes, it can in fact be mounted to your wall. The base has mounting holes in the back.

Yes! The holder( sheet metal with screw holes, mounts on the wall with screws or tape. The electrical power is by a cord that you plug into an electric outlet. Was a simple install but follow the instructions to avoid having the plate upside down.
