Is this system a stand alone with a built in fan or does it have to be installed in a duct? I have hot water baseboard heating system and don't have a

It has to be installed near and piped to a duct. It will not work with a hot water heating system.

It puts steam into the air stream of an air duct. So, no it does not have a fan.

Has to be installed in a duct and use the furnace blower as a carrier. The specifics of how far the output nozzle is from the blower and the first turn in the duct is precise.

The system is a standalone unit with no built-in fan. You can purchase the fan option separately. I have installed both and the unit works great!

Yes, it is a "snap" in installation. Mount the bracket and the fan housing just snaps in. I used 4" ducting and it is super quiet. It may be more difficult in a post construction application, I installed in an unfinished bathroom.

Neither. It is a heat radiator. That is, it gets hot and the heat radiates away from it. Just lilke the old days when a furnace heated water to steam and that steam then went to in-room radiators. These use electricity instead of steam to heat the fins. No fans necessary. Very effective, very nice comfortable heat. Probably the most expensive way to warm a house, as opposed to a gas furnace, but much more comfortable than blown hot air. Hope this helps.

There is a place for an optional fan, or maybe they just didn't bother to re-design the cabinet. I have three of these and I considered getting fans from Jameco or someplace but they run pretty cool. So I never bothered to put a fan in. So my answer is that it just appears that there is a fan in it. There is no fan in it and as far as I can tell it doesn't need on. One of my 3 drives is active 24/7, very active, as it records 2 (sometimes 3) video channels simultaneously and will also play one another video channel. So up to four open files at once and, well, the little green light flashes fast, a lot, what else can I say!

You need the ductless version. The ac comes with the ceiling mounted controller. The heater requires an additional heat strip

This is installed in the duct between the fan and the exterior vent hood.the item you see from the exterior is a exterior vent hood .

Yes you can install it on either side of your ductwork. I have mine installed exactly opposite of the photo shown for the unit here. While you purchase it, you might as well buy a spare filter for inside, it uses one per season in my area, probably due to hard water. I also hooked my water feed up to the hot water line in my house so that it can work at it's optimum.

Joann, as far as I know its built into the heater, I HAVE AN OLDER MODEL AND MY FRIEND HAS ONE LIKE THE PICTURE SHOWN. BOTH UNITS CAME with fans.

This heater does have the fan in it but barely pushes the air. We found an external fan really improves the airflow and makes a huge difference in circulation of the heated air.

It can be installed as a point of use system if needed. I use ours in a seasonal cabin to provide hot water for shower and sink. It does ok for that, but would not support the demands of a regular home.

One more thing.... I also added an Honeywell UV light in the duct to kill bacteria in the air and also is effective during the summer when the a/c condenser has water sitting on the coil or in the process of draining. You can purchase one on Amazon... and it is easy to install.

I do not have non ducted install. I do not know what your situation is regarding the application but if you cant duct it, the result wil be limited; not just for this brand but all brands.

The I have the hot/cold system which must be installed as a separate unit. It contains its own 'faucet' [spout] and a heatitng unit. Don't know if the cold only requires the same configuration. The installation guide should tell you.

I wish I could answer this. I have not had much luck with my duct control either.Would not recommend.Iam guessing there is airflow from furnace unit causing it to stay on . im looking for another solution

You need to run your own power to the unit. The unit is factory ready to accept your white, black and green wiring. I supplied power thru my bathroom circuit, thus the fan is on a gfi circuit....not that it needs to be. You can also adapt it into a cord and plug should you be in the attic with an electrical outlet nearby. Let me know if any other questions. Good luck!

If you have a 4 wire system you simply install a jumper wire at the furnace. You will lose the ability to run " fan only " from the thermostat. FAQs on venstar website describe wire hookup.

Yes it does. I would say about a 6-8 inch section of metal duct would need to be removed depending on the give in your duct work. If you have the flexible duct you might not have to cut any out. There are screws that will mount into the fan's base but you will probably need foil tape to get the best seal around it. I would recommend installing a thermostat switch as well so the fan will turn on with your heating and cooling system or hard wire it into your furance. The fan is seriously strong!! If will blast plenty of air into that kitchen for you. Enjoy your purchase, I am very happy with mine.
