How good does it circulate air in a garage?

This fan does a much better job circulating air in the garage than the ceiling fan. Additionally, you can direct the air where you need it.

its a great fan, i have 2 in my basement and i have been completely satisfied on the way these fans circulate the air.

I have a 2 car garage with 2 garage doors that are insulated as well as all of the walls and attic. This unit works fine without any additional ventilation.

I have used both types and REALLY like the Vornado more! The Vornado's smaller "footprint" is great in the garage game room. It helps circulate the a/c in the summer big time. It is quiet and been problem free. I have bought and additional fan for the house. On a 1-10 I give it a 10!

Air flow is great. It blows up no out so its not a direct fan effect but it circulates the air in my bedroom so much that I get cold

I personally would not put it in a space without a little air circulation. This unit is being used in a small alcove with approximately 4-6 inches clearance around and works really well. The air is forced out through the bottom front.

Given its range and specs, it will most likely, in my opinion, heat a small part of the garage space. If you are working on your vehicle and directing it to your workspace, it will do an okay job.

This fan moves a lot of air. If you want good distribution of your. aC then across room is best

It's not extremely noisy but not real quiet either. I have it mounted in my kitchen which is kind of medium sized so that might make a difference. It puts out alot of air though.

It works pretty well in a small room. It exchanges the air over a period of time. I don't think it works well when there is lots of humidity outside. This is not a high velocity fan!

I don't have a hard number on the sound rating of this fan, but I am happy with its performance in my garage. Standing right under it you would be able to hold a conversation with somebody close to you by raising your voice just a bit. At the lower speed setting the sound drops probably about 6 to 10 dB and the conversation would be fairly comfortable.

I use mine in the garage to filter and move the air around. I wouldn't try to use it as a dust collection system. I don't think it's designed for that type of application.

That is my experience with it. The unit has done a great job drying out the air in our basement. However at times it does blow warm air.

10 cfm per minute. Your garage compressor won't cut it - about half tge air volume needed. If you have a small area and can take your time, the garage compressor will be fine.

I have one of these units in my garage and it heats the garage fairly well if the door is kept closed and the temperature is not too cold...Concerning your concern about whether it the heat spreads from this unit...the unit doesn't have a fan...It is just ambient heat, but I have been satisfied with the unit thus far...Hope this helps...Larry

Not bad at all. It uses a larger, slower fan to move the air (can kind of see the cut-outs for it on the right side of the unit in the picture). We use it in the garage to drive a noisy high-speed spindle, though, so noise hasn't been a concern for us.

I mounted the fan in my garage attic, and it cooled down my garage a whole lot.. the best thing I did for a very cheep price.

I assume you mean with an open garage door? I should work fine, the lack of air movement will help it as wind (or a fan) will disperse the effectiveness. But it is a combustion device (small one) so I am sure using in a closed environment is not wise.
