Rated 1 out of 5 by from Great price Would gladly pay an extra $10 for metal blades on the fan. Plastic blades makes it junk. One of the worst investments for my business of the year.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Basement Fan We have a 1000 ft area in the basement - half crawl space and half cement floor. Have had this fan running full time for 7 weeks now. The handle is makes rolling it around to a new location easy. The noise is barely noticeable on the first floor. We found that it can create water on the floor in very humid weather and have added a de-humidifier.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Not that useful Does not help much. I don't think it's very noisy since I leave it in the garage. I purchased it to help the water melted in the garage evaporate fast, but it did not do the job well. Nothing changes after it works for two hours.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent! Perfect for the job! Needed to help dry out basement from the 2022 spring melt and the non stop raining. Bought two of these and was able to plug one into the other and set them up to dry the wet basement.

Is this blower good to speed up the drying of plaster on new drywall

Asked by: Louie
It’s designed to move air at floor level. So probably if you prop it up where needed.

All reviews and comments are for drying carpets & floor - I would like to know if I can use this "Air Mover" to actually move air from inside to outside by placing it by a window - and to move dust outside while sanding drywall?

Asked by: Peter
Hello Peter, Thank you for your inquiry about our products. The air mover doesn't have a proper intake port for dust or drywall dust to blow out the dust you are making while sanding. However, yes it can move air from the inside to outside by pointing the blower port. However, again it can't suck up the dust that is in the air since it doesn't have a proper intake port for the dust, If you have additional questions you may call our Customer Service at 1-800-474-3443 from Monday to Friday between 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Central Time or send us an email at info@ridgidvacs.com and we'll be glad to assist you. Thanks, RIDGID
