Can this be run off a regular house outlet or does it need to be plugged into a heavy duty outlet?

Yes, this can be run on a regular outlet. Like others are saying - be careful running other appliances on the same circuit or you may have to flip the breaker

I have had this for two summers works awesome. I run just off a normal 110 wall outlet.

Regular outlet. No heavy duty outlet required. However, you need to be careful when running other appliances on the same circuit (eg. an iron).

We just plug it into a regular outlet in the garage. And my husband loves his unit.

Yes I run it on a regular home outlet. Nothing special is required but it does use a good amount of power so if you have a lot of other electronics on the same circuit you may trip the power.

No it will not run off a wall outlet. It's suppose to be for your computer.. and since it's connected to the computer motherboard, it uses a DC voltage output from it.This is also not a USB fan. Based on your question, it's likely not what you want or need..

ran ours all last winter, it was hooked up to a outdoor power strip which was run off of a 100 ft heavy duty extension cord, so I think you would be fine using an outdoor heavy duty cord. I would recommend covering the connection to keep out moisture with a cord connector or even a plastic 2 liter bottle, just cut a slice in the side of it and stick the cord ends inside it.

It uses regular household power. I live off the grid and am able to power it through my inverter without it blowing a fuse, this is a huge plus!

This unit must run on a dedicated 220 line; the line is made for that and will not fit in a regular outlet. We are very pleased with this unit.

It can be plugged into a standard outlet. Mounting the lamp is also very simple. I am exteremly satisfied with the pair of fixutes I purchased.

All it requires is an outlet, mine runs 365/24 until it stops. My is in a 15 or 16 gal so it would be fine.

It must be plugged into a wall socket and is not designed to be run by batteries.

It runs with electricity for the blower....it will not run in a power outage...and will have to be turned back on after the power comes back on.

No, it is a relatively heavy consumer of energy and therefore impractical to build in a transformer into it. you will need a fairly heavy standalone transformer to run it off a 220V outlet, like Goldsource ST-500. Not worth the trouble in my view.

It needs 220v to run. It needs a different socket and I would suggest having it on its own dedicated circuit with a breaker

This unit needs to be plugged to a 120v outlet. I ran an extension cord from the outlet to the unit.

This one DEFINITELY runs off a power cord, but a very SHORT one, less than two feet or .6 m long. All power comes from the detachable base. A 3 pronged extension cord is highly recommended.

While my contractor initially installed this unit, I did have to remove and re-install it in my kitchen island for a repair service (control circuit board.) It is a straight plug in so no problem, assuming the outlet is in place. The unit is a little heavy for one person to manage, but it can be handled by two or if you use some sort of hand truck.

We plug it into a standard 110 amp house hold outlet. I don't think anything special is required to power it.

Yes, I was able to run mine down through a cabinet to the wall outlet but you could run it inside the wall the cord is heavy duty and well insulated.

You can power it from an outlet, however the alarm bell will sound continuously. You will need to wire in a switch of some sort to avoid this.
