Can I mount this on top of an 18" wide double-hung window to use as a kitchen exhaust fan?

This fan would be best suited for a permanent, "through the wall" installation, not a temporary install.

I wouldn't recommend it. I think it would be too noisy in a kitchen and you'd have to make something to take up the 3" on each side.

I believe you could with a plywood cut out to fit window exactly. I would buy a nutone kitchen exhaust fan for a through the wall vent very good

I used preformed roof flashing to fabricate a mounting bracket that allowed the fitting to that sized opening when I installed mine BUT I don't know if that unit meets the OSHA specs for a kitchen exhaust fan-----you'd better check before you try it. This fan might not be rated for that use.

I don't think it would. Even if the mount fit in that space (which it possibly could), the fan would be hanging over the top of the doorway. May bump it with your head, it's a pretty big fan.........

You could flush mount it, but looking at mine (and using a measuring tape), it looks like the OVERALL drop from ceiling to the decorative finial on the bottom, would be about 18"-23", but the fan blades would only drop about 10-13" from the ceiling, so the "blade danger" wouldn't be much issue. I think you will be totally fine with 8' ceilings, but If you have anyone who is REALLY tall, like 6'4"+ in the home, maybe go with a lower profile fan without the heating element...

The fans can be mounted any way you like. If you mount them on TOP of the unit I would recommend having them Draw the air out instead of trying to keep the hot air blowing back into the unit

Yes, this would work. Fan measures 10" wide by 11" tall and moves a pretty good volume if air for its size.

You will have to mount onto something but mounting brackets are very flexible. this is a great fan, still going strong after a couple years of hard use and love the thermostat option.

I see no reason why not as long as the mounting screws are secure. I have mine mounted on a window frame at the top so that the fan sweeps downward. The fan has a two screw mounting system where you lock the fan onto the screws. If you mount it on the ceiling you might want to check it once in a while to be sure it hasn't loosened.

Yes. The brackets flat mount to surface above the window. As long as you use masonry anchors you should be fine.

If you have at least the minimum width for the fan as listed in its specifications, you can build a simple frame to hold the fan. I did this using 1 x 3 Red Oak and it worked wonderfully and it allowed me to use the Storm Guard feature to close my window when I am away. I went to the Air King site and they expressly discourage mounting the fan at a 90 degree angle to its intended installation. This is why I made a small frame within my sliding window casement. LOVE THIS FAN.

you probable could as long as it was not really big we hung ours above our fireplace with a moving wall mount

will fit standard double hung window between width 23 to 36 inches 13 minimal height not so big !

I see no reason why you could not mount this fan in any position you want. It has completely sealed bearings and this would allow any position mounting.

yes, you can. two key for this: a. exhaust ducking as big as possible. b. distance can not too long, otherwise exhaust fan will not enough power to push hot air out.

You have to figure out how far from your ceiling you want the fan mounted. If it's a high ceiling get a longer down rod if it's regulsr height the ones with the fan should be OK.

The fan itself is about 2' (24 inches) at its smallest without any size adapters so no it will not fit in a 18" window.

Sure. You could use as big of a window as you like if you are willing to make a cover for what the spacer doesn't cover.

If you saw it down you could. I think it's a waste to do that unless your really having venting issues out of the pole. You could cut the vent down to an inch above the singles then mount the fan over it.
