Can the heater outlet be rotated so the hot air blows straight up? Thx.

Damon, we have 2 of these heaters, and have been pleased with their performance. They do not turn enoughto go straight up.

No, it will not rotate up that far only...maybe roughly half that. I do like the heater but it does not have strong wind power. Can't tell the difference in the speeds.

Damon - I returned the product shorty after trying it bc it was not powerful. That being said, It could not be rotated.

I'm not sure of the question, it can be rotated even when it is not open. If they meant can the fan be used when not fully open, We have never tried. We are using the fan in our 5th wheel camper and it works well.

yes. you can plug in to vac or blow on opposite sides of the unit. Had mine a year, no complaints.

You can rotate the heater arms manually like when I'm sitting under it and I move one a little if it gets too warm right over my head but it's not like a ceiling fan with a continuous motion. I've been using mine every morning and I can sit outside earlier now because it was too cold before.

Not quite, but it will go to a very steep angle. You will love it. It moves a great amount of air and is whisper quiet at the lowest speed. I used mine to move heated air from the ceiling during winter, and will now use it to move my air conditioned air from the floor during summer.

Yes - on one side. The output is equivalent to a home furnace. Gets very hot! Made for open space but not to be enclosed.

Yes - the head can be pointed up or down. Only problem with them is that they do burn out and die after 1 or 2 seasons of heavy use, but reasonable enough to replace (which I do). They are wonderful heaters to warm a room (I have a several of them) and save on your gas bill.

No, the motor direction is controlled from the base of the motor housing with a switch from one direction to the other.... Typically, you would just need to adjust it seasonally anyway whether your intention was to draw hot air down from the ceiling during the winter or pull cool air up from the floor in the summer. BTW, it's very quiet and powerful little unit. Very happy with it.

My husband said 'no'. Heater works great. Maybe a different model could be operated that way. Judy.

Possibly, but I don't think the manufacturer intended it to be mounted that way. You'd need to contrive a way to keep it from falling out of the duct opening. As well, there usually is no electrical outlet nearby at the ceiling level. Better might be to get a different kind of unit, such as an In-line booster, with an air pressure switch to sense when the furnace fan comes on. Trickier to install, but more likely to do the job correctly.

Hey Larry.... To be honest, I don't know but I installed it in place a Jabsco which had quit. It works great but I think you are wondering if it will lift. I can't remember if the intake and outlet can be rotated. Sorry...

The wall blocks do not rotate. A solution to outlet congestion might be a one foot extension cord. I've used them to good effect.

Wrap the air hose outlet with the supplied Teflon tape put it on thick this will This should give a quarter to half less rotation just play with it then hook it up and it should hold pressure

You want the fan to push the air out of the exhaust vent. On my fan, the housing outlet is positioned so that if the fan turns one way, the air is blown into the outlet. If it turns the other way it isn't and the fan is less effective. I suspect most housings are similarly designed.

We were told by people with no ax to grind that the blowers are problematic; that the best heat-distribution is ceiling fans reversed for winter. We already had the ceiling fans, so that's what we're doing. You can also get those neat little ~4" fans to put in the corner of doorways.

It should NOT blow out hot air. Your unit may be defective. I'm very happy with this product.

Yes you can, but it is only the two end heaters. The degree of turning is also only very slight.
