paid new price for used product
I get that people buy a product for a single use, and then return it. I really wish the El Cajon (r676) store would not charge full price for used restocked returns that are covered in dirt and dust. Can't resolve this over the phone, and I can't be bothered to get back to the store to exchange. Do Better Home Depot.

    Quality air movers
    Works as described. I bought 5 units. They are quiet. The daisy chain is important to me.Theres a 2 year warranty, so lets see how they hold up.

    More uses than just drying flooded floors
    This fan really moves a lot of air with a 900 CFM flow rate. I purchased this to dry out my basement floor that gets some minor water from time to time, but I needed up using this fan for a lot more purposes. It works great at speeding up drying paint and wood coatings (or just removing the odor they make when drying). I use this after shampooing my carpets and it makes them walkable in 1 hour vs waiting all day with no fan running. I have also used this in my garage to move air for cooling effect/breeze when working in the summer. There are 3 speeds, with the lowest speed very quiet and a gentle breeze, and the fastest speed somewhat loud with a wind like air speed, the middle speed seems like the right balance between noise and air movement. The intake is very strong, so be sure to keep curtains, paper of loose material away from the intake as it can get sucked onto it and block the flow. I have had this unit for 4 years without any problems, and often leave this running for days at a time with out it overheating. This fan has far exceeded my expectations.

      It works great and it does its job. I had a water damaged in the house and with this blower I was able to save a lot of parts of the house before the professional showed in my house.

      Powerful little unit, I bought 4 and they worked out better than I had hoped. I have used them everyday for the past ten days on full power for 12 hours straight a day with no problems. I plan on buying four more.

        Very Compact Water Damage Floor Blower Fan
        I recently obtained the new B-Air VP-25 Air Mover Floor Dryer Fan. It’s very compact and only weights 11 lbs, making it ideal for water damage restoration under sinks, carpet in closets and other hard to reach places. It can be positioned parallel to the floor, 45 degrees or 90 degrees, and is stackable if additional units are required. The 3-speed, ¼ hp motor moves up to 900 cfm and has little vibration. It also has a convenient 10 foot electric cord. When not using for water restoration, I have discovered the VP-25 makes an excellent fan for use indoors or on the porch to keep mosquitoes away from the dogs. Recommended for Contractors involved in Water Damage Restoration.

        Good For More Than Just Carpets
        This unit is great for so many things; yes it does a great job of drying out carpets and wet floors but can also do so many other things. What you get in the box; A high volume fan that has an almost indestructible housing. It looks to be made out of Ultra High Molecular Weight plastic. Under most conditions its just about the best material for this type of application. The fan has three speeds and can be daisy chained for a total of 3 fans. This also has the benefit of being used as an extension cord for smaller power tools thru its own outlet. The fan has a twenty foot power cord that makes placing the unit where you want it very easy. These are great fans for drying floors and flooded rooms but they also have a few other uses. They do a great job of drying out tents and any other camping gear that gets wet. Plus, they also are great to test houses and RV's for air leaks since they produce almost no pressure but massive air volumes. I have used fans like this to find roof and window leaks in RV's for years. Once the fan is connected to an RV's window or door thru a duct, you can use a window to regulate the pressure and volume. Then with a garden sprayer filled with soapy water, spray an area to find almost any leak on the outside of an RV. It’s the same way that leaks in tires are found. For a house, the fan is used to create a small vacuum inside a house. It's easy to walk around and find air leaks with a wet hand or a soft feather and test for air leaks around doors, windows and electrical outlets. You can feel the air making the water on your hand cool as it evaporates and see the feather move when you drop it past a leaking area. For the amount of air this fan moves it is reasonably quiet. A great fan that can do multiple jobs from cooling to drying and its almost indestructible.

        Powerful
        This 11 lb. floor fan really puts out the air (900 cfm). My toilet had a seal leak and it was dripping into the basement. The wood flooring and joists were all wet. From the basement I was able to dry the wood overnight using this powerful fan. It can be used in 3 different positions. When I cleaned my family room carpeting the entire carpet was fully dry in 1/2 day, where it used to take 24 plus hours to dry. What's pretty neat about this fan is that it has 2-110 volt receptacles built right into it. I plugged another floor fan into this one and it didn't reduce it's functions. The electrical cord neatly wraps around its' handle for storage. I give this blower fan a big thumbs up.

        Really gets down to business & gets the job done
        I truly got this for home and yard use, but decided to "test" it out at my son's business since it is generally used in businesses. Needless to say, we were both impressed with the power this little blower generates. Since it only weighs 11 lbs., it is very easy and lightweight for me to handle for just about any size project. It is extremely well built and durable. I really wish I'd had a few of these on two prior occasions when the water heater plumbing broke at my home. With a max air volume:of 900 CFM, this is more than adequate for my needs, and I like that the blower also has 3 different speeds. Highly recommended.

        Great Size & Weight
        I have used other blowers like this and they were heavy and bulky. What I liked the most was the size and weight of this blower. It is approximately 12" X 12" X 12" and weighs 11 pounds. Great to carry and small in size to store away between uses. The placement of the handle provided very good balance. See Photos. The body of the blower is a heavy duty, somewhat flexible plastic. It comes with a 10 ft. long 3 prong cord. The blower was also surprisingly quiet. When on the slow speed the sound volume was measured at 55 db and when set to the high speed it measures about 65 db. My sound app listed this level as what you would expect normal conversation to be when heard from 3 ft. away. See Video.

        Good air mover for smaller projects
        B-Air VP-25 1/4 HP 900 CFM Air Mover is a small air mover for DIY, household uses as well as for contractors. Its not the smallest unit, but also not one of those large industrial ones used for major damage restoration. This one is sized for other uses and handy whereas the bigger one's can be just too unwieldy or impractical. It's really only different in its size as in all other aspects its the same. Its made of molded polyethylene, has two daisy chain outlets build-in on the side and rated at 12 amps max with a ¼ horsepower motor. The unit is sturdy, can take plenty of knocks and easy to setup and use. It has three different speeds that is controlled with a knob on the side. At its max its putting out 900 Cubic Feet per Minute that is sufficient for the projects its designed to handle . That's plenty for use around the house or small job-site projects. It will handle smaller projects like drying a large shampooed floor rug, a freshly painted room or to cleanup plumbing mishaps. I regularly shampoo my wall-to-wall carpets and drying it faster with an air mover is worth it because people don't wait for it to dry properly. The daisy chain feature lets you connect other units around the area to speed things up all connected to one outlet by daisy chaining them through the on-board outlets. This particular unit also comes with a ten foot cord, but could have used something longer. Having said that most have ten foot long cords. The unit is light weight at eleven pounds, sturdily built and is a tad over a foot all around. It is built to be used by positioning the air outlet into three positions for drying: horizontal, 45 degrees and vertical. When finished the units nest into each other and can be stacked vertically for storage. This one is fifty percent more powerful than another one I own at the same price. The other one though does instead offer an automatic shut off if overheated and will restart when cooled down. This one is a good size air mover for smaller projects and the extra CFM capacity comes in handy to speed up drying.

        Excellent Floor Dryer Air Mover Fan
        I'm very impressed with my new VENT VP-25 Air Mover fan. I love it's 3 speed 1/4 hp motor that moves air at 900cfm to dry carpets, floor, walls and ceilings quickly and efficiently. The housing is made of strong impact plastic for durability and years of use. It can be used in three operating positions for whatever drying need you have and the handle is also the10' power cord holder when it's not in use. It is 115v 60hz.It has two plugins to attach other electrical components as needed. I'd definitely recommend VP-25 air mover for the homeowner or professional.

        So universal
        Wow. 3 speeds High, medium and low., 3 positions 90, 45 and 180 degree.2 added receptacles, 10' cord, fuse breaker, ergo friendle handle. and does it put out. This made for multiple units to daisy chain off one another, great idea. Made of sturdy, thick plastic and a powerful 1/4 horse power motor. Plus rubber feet for all position so not to allow movement. Just ideal for venting and cooling. Comes with instructions, parts list and warranty.
