Is this a reversible fan? I didn't see that in the description.

I'm not sure got it for my mom. The fan didn't last long,we replaced it few months ago. Hope you find what you want � �

Yes it is, however I bought the wall switch (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00803UQ7G/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&ps;c=1) and it has a reverse button on it. The remote that comes with it does not have a reverse button. I am not sure if I wouldn't have bought the extra switch how I would reverse. In any case I love having the fan and I love having two options as far as controlling the fan.

Yes, The fan must expel air. Some induction/repulsion motors can be reversed by removing the armature, turning the armature 180 degrees and re-assembling.

This is a great fan. I've had similar in the past and this is the best featured and most quite of them all. Yes it is electronically reversible. Don't need to physically take out and turn around. However, the right side of the fan has an accordian type flexible adjustment so you can adjust to fit your specific window size. The fan and adjuster will stretch to 35 inches in total left to right. If you're looking for a 40" spread, you'd need some filler to make up the missing 5" between the fan frame and your window frame. Good Luck with your decision

No it is not. There are two latches on the back, you undo those, it comes apart and you have access to the fans. I would be careful undoing the latches though because they are fragile.

flip the fan over -- the fan doesn't know the difference. It exhausts air or evacuates (sucks) depending upon how it's installed.

No, I cannot reverse the direction of the fans. The fans only blow up toward the bottom of the laptop.

The fan can be adjusted to go backwards and can be aimed to your liking. Great fan...you're going to love it.

I can't see any way to reverse mine, and would be grateful if someone can tell me how to this. Having said that, mine operates blowing air down all the time, which I find works well in winter to bring warm air down, and creates a nice breeze in the summer. If you look at the blade shape, they really are designed to blow downwards so am doubtful how well they would reverse (if it was possible). Apart from this, I love the fan. It is very quiet, elegant, changes speed smoothly. Love it! (and if anyone can tell me how to reverse direction, please let me know how - I'm very curious).

The hell it's not. I have this fan in my shop. You can reverse it. It came with a wall mounted switch that runs in 5 speeds FORWARD and BACKWARD. Maybe your fans didn't come with the switch mine did. You can make any fan reversible. Apparently you don't understand AC current.

The unit itself WILL turn opposite direction - BUT the fans themselves will only turn one direction - if that makes sense! I also recommend purchasing the remote control - makes it very easy to use. Overall very satisfied with our purchase. A real head turner!

The fan itself rotates left to right, or you can set it to a stationary position. Also the fan does adjust up and down, so you can angle it for how you want the air to blow. Very happy with this fan. I have two

This is an 120VAC alternating current fan. There is no way to reverse the polarity because it doesn't have a polarity. It's AC. You could reverse polarity (and direction) on a DC (direct current fan) but not on an AC motor/fan. As far as slowing the fan down, you could probably apply some sort of SCR or Resistor voltage control in-line with the fan however, the fan may or may not be happy with decreased voltage and could possible fail. It was designed as a one-speed fan. I would look for a fan that had capability of reversal & speed control built-in by design if I was to pursue your fan dream. Good Luck, Ed/Central California

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.

Maybe a verb is not missing. Maybe a negative! : How come the weather shield window box fans, particularly the air king 9700, ARE NOT electrically reversible? Smaller fans are.

The blades are reversible...one side lighter... one side darker. We are very happy with this fan.

Is the motor reversible? Honestly don't know...and I imagine reversing the wiring hookups wouldn't work, either. If you're trying to suck the outside air in, rather than forcing the inside air out, wouldn't that depend on the fan blade design?
