I plan to use the fan on a covered patio in 90+ degree heat. Does it really move air?

the fan is about 12 inches across. It may be underszed for a patio. Indoors it works great

Yes it does move air, it does quite a good job despite its small size. Kinda gets noisy at the higher speeds, but that might not be an issue if its on the patio.

It does a very good job for it´s size and can be wall mounted. I have two of them. How well it does on your patio will depend on how close you place the fan to those needing relief from the heat . Richard

Yes this fan is actually very powerful for it's 6 pound size it also sounds perfect for. Patio since you can mount this fan to almost anything

Yes, this fan will move a fair amount of air in a closed room. Patio service requires heavy duty industrial fans for good cooling.

The fan works amazing inside. But for a patio with 90 degree temperatures you would need something bigger.

We installed this fan inside of our gazebo and my opinion is "with the fan is much more better than without"

I have this fan installed on my front porch. It actually does a decent job on the 2 highest settings. The lowest setting is more for looks.

I used mine in a greenhouse last summer and it controlled the ventilation very well. The fan shut off when the temperature dropped to a set level.

Yes. This fan will aim from straight up to 45 degrees downward [135 degree range]. A quite versatile piece of equipment. Pulls air in from the sides and blows it where you aim it.

Yes it gets extremely hot. You can put under a patio as long as you have at least 18 inches, but that also depends what your patio is covered with.

Yes. It is a very good fan. I use it under my carport. I live in Louisiana with lots of heat and humidity and it does really well. Good purchase.

The key will likely be do you have enough ventilation...It does not include a thermostat, so something with one might be a better idea.It does have a much stronger motor than most permanently mounted fans that I've seen...

I believe it will as long as you use the ice packs that come with it. I know that you have a lot of humidly there. The fan does not feel very strong but it differently circulates the air in the room. I live in ca. and have used it when it is pouring rain out and it stills keeps me comfortable. My living room is at least as big as yours and my room is also wide opened to the kitchen. I hope this helps you.

It would move air, but what is your intent? If you use it as an exhaust fan you would have to move air from someplace else in the room (open window). If used as an intact fan, then it would make a positive pressure environment if no outside vent/window/door is open.

I doubt it it sounds like you need an air conditioner if it's "very hot". If you had some cross ventilation it might help, but even with two windows a fan isn't the answer in really hot weather.

If you readjust the heat setting and just run the fan, it will blow ambient air that will seem cool

No. The fan is stationary. It does have good power and give good air flow. I bought the fan to move hot air down in a Cabelas Alaknak tent (from a wood stove) and it does a superb job doing that.

Hi,The fan will move air quite well for a small fan/heater. However, it is really not powerful cooling fan. It is a fan heater combo that really does a great job of heating small areas like the motorhome.I have had this fan/heater for a few years now and it works very well. Jon Green

I use it under a covered patio with about 6-8 inches of clearance and have had no issues. The heat seems to be very effectively distributed to the sides.

Not sure I understand the question I use the fan to move hot air from my living room where I have I wood burning Stove. In the summer I move air conditioned air from living room inti othe r areas in house It does both well.

I am not sure about how much it cools the room down in regards to degrees, but I love this fan. I live in a place that is very hot and humid. The cost for electricity is very expensive. I do not use my AC most of the time. I use this fan and it really helps. I turn on the AC for an hour before I go to bed and then just use the fan and am able to sleep comfortably. Living in a tropical island can be very hot at times and I am happy I purchased this item. I wish I had a couple more.

It depends on the size of the area. You can stick a pc fan on it to keep it cool.
