Can be converted for use as a window exhaust fan.
A year ago I purchased at Costco a very similar (now discontinued) fan, the 5-speed Vornado # 715 (Vornado 715 Full Size Floor Fan (Silver)). Believe it or not at that time it was about half the price of the 3-speed Vornado Heavy Duty 293 fan (Vornado CR1-0089-16 Heavy Duty 293 Shop Fan), which is the subject of this review. I also have a much older variable speed Vornado floor/table fan # 280SS, which may be similar to today's # 633B (Vornado CR1-0074-06 630B Air Circulator) or # 733 (Vornado CR1-0070-06 733 Air Circulator).Recently I did purchased the newer heavy duty # 293 fan from Amazon. It is very, very similar in power, styling and sound to the older # 715, and both are more powerful than the much older # 280SS.The reason I purchased the # 715 and # 293 fans was to use them as window fans to exhaust warm air from the house at night. They work great for this because:1. They are not too big. So you can put them in a typical sash window with some simple modifications.2. They are more powerful than any other small fan that I have been able to find. Certainly there are more powerful fans, but none that I could find would fit in a normal or smaller sash window without major modifications.3. The power wire and fan controls are mounted on the rear of the fans' housings, rather than on their stand like most Vornado's and other fans I've seen. This means you can remove the fan housing from the stand and mount it in a window without changing any electrical or switch connections. I realized this as soon as I saw the # 715 last year at Costco and bought it immediately. The # 293 has virtually the same stand/mounting mechanism as the # 715.4. It is relatively easy to modify the fan for use in a window if you have a few basic hand tools handy and access to a hardware store. I'll try to post photos of how I did it. The basic procedure is as follows:a. Remove the fan housing from the stand; cut a piece of plywood or MDF to the appropriate dimensions so it will fit snugly into the window opening; cut a circular hole in that piece just big enough to accept the fan housing snugly; and attach the housing to that piece with some L-shaped brackets. Put the "new" window fan in the window, close the sash and plug it in.As far as comparing the two fans, I would say they are very similar in power and air moving ability. Unfortunately I can't find the specs for the older # 715, but both fans advertise that they move air 100 feet. The # 293 has 3 speeds, while the older # 715 has 5, but I don't think that's significant.Given the current price difference (81 USDolors vs 130 USDolors) I would recommend the # 715. In fact I'm thinking of getting another # 715 for the garage.
