is this an outdoor fan?

No, it is neither damp rated nor wet rated. Technically I should not be using it for my screen enclosed patio but I liked the design.

Not to my knowledge. I am sure it is not sealed to be used outdoors, unless it were in a very protected location. Also, it's wood, and that would probably, unless rigidly maintained, not do too well outside either.

Nope, indoors..., unless is installed in a very protected enclosure. Is a heavy fan.

This one is not. Hunter makes one that is. Google hunter outdoor ceiling fan.

I'm pretty sure it is not an outdoor fan. It is definitely different than ones I have seen on porches

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.

Since the information on this unit says nothing about it being rated for outside, I'm making an assumption it's only good for indoor use. I have this unit in my master bedroom and like it very much. Nice looking, fairly quiet and the closest ceiling hugger fan I've found to date.

If you are wanting an outdoor fan look for "Wet" or "Damp" listed fan options! Let us know if you would like some options! :)

The fan isn't made for outdoor use. That being said will it have a chance to get wet?

It does have a fan only feature, but it doesn't bring the air in from outside.

No way, this is an indoor fan only. There are some good outdoor fans at Lowes.com

I don't think so. My past experience has been when using a fan outside it has to be rated for outdoor use. Too much chance for rust, etc. I would see what manufacturer's specs state.

I believe it is only rated for indoor use. A fan that can be used outdoors always is described specifically as indoor/outdoor.

This fan is powerful enough to be used outdoors, but like anything made of metal, it will eventually corrode. Being black in color dirt or rust will not as noticeable.

Not to my knowledge..it is installed in my living room...there are specific fans that state indoor/outdoor usage..their motors are self-contained from the elements.

I would say yes. It's a small fan that has to go fast to push a lot of air, so there's a decent amount of wind noise. The motor itself seems quiet.

The documentation that came with Hunter Fan 53091 states that the fan is rated for INDOOR use. There are other models that are rated for outdoor use but please look up the manufacturer's warnings. Some outdoor fans are rated for DAMP conditions while others are rated for WET conditions. Please do your research before purchasing your outdoor fan.

I purchased this fan for an outdoor patio earlier this year and have had no problems with it. My previous fan had rusted over the years, but since this is made for the outdoors , am hoping to avoid this problem. Have received lots of compliments on the sleek look. Hope this helps!
