Is this fan outdoor rated or indoor use only?

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.

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

No, It is indoor use only. It will work outside, but eventually the moisture will cause it to fail prematurely.

I don't believe this was intended as an outdoor fan. the blades will probably droop after exposure to moisture/humidity. If you found some outdoor fan blades, I would imagine it would work fine on a porch or what not.

It is a 3 speed fan. I bought 4 of them for outdoor patio use and I am very happy with them. Virtually identical to the original Hunter fans I replaced after 20+ years.

This fan is Very Well Made; however, I don't think it is for outside use.I use it in my garage and the fact that it has THREE speeds is nice.

I do not think that is an outdoor fan. We purchased it for the inside of the house.

The only way to use the fan indoors would be to hook it up to a 12v power supply. Since it is a 12v electrical motor, the fan cannot be hooked to 110v house electrical source.

From the way I interpret the specs is that the fan is suitable for damp locations. I have installed them on a screen porch that is exposed to high humidity. The fans look and work great, and I think that they would look just a good indoors. The fact that they are rated for damp locations does not preclude their installation indoors.

I've had this for so long now I've forgotten if this was an inside/outside fan. Best to ask the mfg to be sure. Sorry.

I wouldn't personally use it outdoors . It's kind of noisey too, so if you do get it get a controller to adjust the fan speed

As far as I know it's not rated for outside use. There is a small cooling fan inside the light that may break if it gets wet. Great light for inside use if you don't mind hearing the built in cooling fan ( not that loud)

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!

Most outdoor fans will be "damp rated". This one does not have this listed. You could certainly install it outside, but you may run into problems.

Outdoor use is fine only under circumstances where the humidity is very low and the fan is never exposed to rain or moisture. It certainly moves enough air for outdoor use.

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.
