can it sit outside in the weather without damaging the unit. I don't care about the misting part but the fan part.

Hi Weather, UV and rust resistant I would think it would be ok. Hope this helps Thank you for your communication texasvalue

I have mine on an open air porch so it gets a little bit of rain on it. I haven't had any issues with rain bothering it. It wouldn't hurt to put a coat of protectant on it if it will be outside though.

It is not intended for outside use although it is rated for humidity 20-80% and thus might be able to be used in a covered porch for example. The strict answer is no though.

Ours is installed in an exposed but covered exterior entrance way where it gets wet from blowing rain and mist. It does not get rained on directly however. Appears to be fine.

Yes, you can sit under it in the rain and not get wet(unless the wind is blowing....lol)!

We've got ours wet on occasion and it's still working just fine. I doubt any misting system would hurt it unless it remained on for several minutes at a time and soaked the stone.

No. The unit is sealed. This doesn't mean that it's resistant to the weather. I have used mine for over 4 yrs with no issues.

Sure! I live bythe water. Mine has been exposed to wind and rain and it still works fine. Make sure the unit is well seal to the house though.

I wouldn't put the unit out in the direct sun, but if you kept it on the patio but in the shade and slightly above the ground I would think it would be okay. Also getting the unit wet would not a be a good idea hence my idea of getting it off the ground.

Unit isn't weather proof, if you mount outdoors, it does need to be potected from moisture.

Mine has not had any problems, we live in eastern NC which has high humidity, very good fan.

I have not had any issues with water getting in from the weather. I did build a nice frame to keep it from sitting directly in the ground.

The fan is good in damp but not wet conditions.As long as it is out of the rain & snow it should be okay. We have it I the house & love it.

It can sit on the ground, but in winter the spirits will need to be warmed up to burn. A wind screen is always necessary.

I use mine while sitting on my deck and I've had no problems with it. I agree that they must mean keep it away from moisture.

If your patio is enclosed it will be great. You will have to sit right in front of it if your patio is open. It does have oscillation in the fan. So that is helpful to cool down everywhere.

Definitely not. I wouldn't use it even in a protected area where subject to either temperature changes or humidity changes of any extent. Strictly an inside fan.
