There are two versions of this fan available, check the options and you'll find the digital version which goes in your window one way and has a control for reverse. You'll spend an extra $10.00. If you want to save a little money you can choose the manual one which requires you to flip the entire unit.

The fan blows air in one direction. If it's blowing in and you want it to blow out, turn it off, lift it out of the window, turn it around and place back in the window. Controls are on both sides so you can still adjust/turn on/off. You can run 1, 2 or all 3 fans via a switch. There is no speed adjust (slow/fast) but there is a thermostat adjustment.

Hello there..It is always preferable to put rear fans blowing out. But be sure you are creating a single air flow direction. You may not need intake fans and create enough negative air pressure within the case that air will enter through any other openings, but it's also preferable to put filtered intake fans with more capacity than the outlet fans so you always keep the dust where it should be and a fresh computer case.

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.

It moves a lot more air than a circular fan and it will get the air around the room. Sounds like you really need and exhaust fan for a bathroom and this will just blow the air around it will not remove it from the space.

I don't keep a fan next to it. I have a ceiling fan I keep on low and an air purifier that runs, so there is air movement in my home. Seems that is all the air I need, it works great that way.

Not significantly. If you are looking for a quiet solution and are somewhat electrically savvy, try wiring two fans in series and ditch the speed controller. I found this configuration was much quieter (practically silent!) than using the fans on the low setting of the speed controller, and still moved a surprising amount of air. The speed controller is not a very "elegant" design, and causes the fans to emit a buzzing or humming noise at low speed.

NO! I have installed this one in my shower room and after a while it produced weird loud noise that nothing could get rid off. So I think its not a proper fan for this type of use.

you can use any fan you want as an exhaust, (excluding radiators for closed loops etc)

Yes. You need to vent all the exhaust air out of your place or else the hot air will just recirculate in the room preventing it from cooling the room.

Hi Jamie. No, you cannot. But it's a powerful desktop fan. I hope this helps.

I believe you can but they are grossly overpriced from what I remember (I researched this a while back). So, you might be better off getting a fan that comes with one - IMHO.

You could but there's no need. One centrifugal fan should be enough for a passive intake/negative pressure setup.

I would say it's possible but that's not really what it's designed for. It's used to blow dust out of jewellery and smaller spaces. The stream of air is decent but not enough for a fan. You should just get a can of compressed air like the kind you use to blow dust out of a computer. That would work much better

You can if you wanted to , but honestly it really does its job well when its on an intake fan ( because that is where most of the dust comes in from ) it does not restrict to much to be honest and I'd like to think it would be fine on either or :3 Hope that helps !

Sure, The design of the window fan says it all. Can you imagine the same design with one small fan. It would move alot less air. Two is better than one. Unless you buy One large Box fan to put in the window.

Actually, I was thinking about my bedroom fan..it oscillates..the one pictured is on my desk at work.i am not sure if it oscillates or not.. I know you can turn the vents. I will look when I go to work..if you still want to know.
