Gas BBQ grill at the end of a covered lanai. Fan will mount about 8' away &amp; 7' up to clear out smoke. Do you think this model will do the job?

It pushes plenty of air if I remember correctly 1600 cfm on high adjustments to tilt Turning off oscillation should allow to get air moving to push smoke.It is a bit noisy on high but should acceptable for the application you described. It only has a 6' cord so if your desired mounting location is not directly over receptacle you will need to use an extension cord or power strip. Using a 5' section of wiremold to conceal the cord down the wall makes for a clean looking install

There is a 5/8" clearance between mounting surface and bottom of inverter. Based on other user responses there may be 1/4" variances between units. There is a 2" x 3 1/2" ventilation grill underneath, towards the front of the unit.

Its not the most powerful fan out there. I ran the one I have straight up and out the roof with an additional kit I purchased at home depot. It draws okay from the two back burners on my gas range. Its less effective with the front ones because they are farther away but its well made and looks very contemporary and clean.

You can tuck it in a corner it should work fine, it is a clean BBQ with the ash pot on the bottom. Happy grilling.

My fan is installed in a covered area of my deck. It is open on two sides and overlooks Lake Martin. We had a previous Hunter out door fan there for fourteen years with no problems. It was not a cast iron Origional and it had become rusty but was still running.

It would take some modification, as the cord is on one of the outside grills. You would have to run the cord back through the wall. Also depending on length, may need to cut the cord and splice. Could be done, but made to be just plugged in to outlet near the fan.

I deferred your question to my wife, who does the majority of our grilling. Her reply was that she has noticed no issues with the wind cooling the temperature and so far, we have not had an issue with the wind blowing out the flame, even without any type of wind screen.

My grill has a burner on one side an a work station on the other and it covers with room to spare. There are velcro tabs to sinch it tight on the sides, so even if your grill is smaller, you can keep it from blowing off.

Hi Kim, I have a Kenmore grill. the main part of my grill is 48" tall and 28" wide. It has a burner on the left side that extends out 15" and is 36" high. There is a shelf on the right side that is also 15" and 36" high. This cover does a nice job of covering this grill and extends almost down to the deck. The cover is made of a heavy vinyl material. It is pretty much water proof however there are two seams that would need to be treated with seam seal like on a tent to make it fully water repellent. I am very happy with this product.Mike

This fan will move the air around 25 to 30 feet, it is quiet and will help to keep pests away. I believe this would be a good choice for a patio fan. Good Luck>

I would not cook over it, it does not have a burner shield like a gas grill does.The tanks cost abt $3.50 and seem to last abt 6 hrs depending on if on high or low. It's more for looks than producing heat. I live in Fl and on a low wind, 60deg night, fun to have on the porch.

I don't think that would work very well, but I guess you could build something to mount it. You would need to make sure it has enough ventilation or it will burn up.

That is what I did. It pulls air in the bottom, heats it and blows it out the top. All the air movement is through the grill on the front.

It does a very good job for it´s size and can be wall mounted. I have two of them. How well it does on your patio will depend on how close you place the fan to those needing relief from the heat . Richard

I would think that would be a bit too heavy. The grill grate is fairly heavy it's self. This is a well build grill and the post goes in the ground a good distance but that also depends on how hard the ground is too. If the ground is soft I have had the grill tilt a bit. hope this helps.

Yes, with a grill plate/pan set over the burners it would do the trick. It's got plenty of power.

It was pretty high. It would prob be ok. I had to return this grill after three weeks the gas wasn't getting to the burners. Amazon was great about it. Not sure if I just got a bad one but ended up springing for a weber and it cooks much more even and this one the flames were directly on the food. The grill was pretty dirty after only a few uses. Get a weber.
