Title: Does the job in SF
Review: I live in San Francisco, top floor of 3 floor walk up. So when we get the few hot days, it can get to be 79 degrees in-doors. After years of swearing to get a fan, I finally purchased the Holmes--read up on the reviews and the ease of installation sold me (vs. Lasko which u have to screw in), reverse directional blades, and price. My only hesitation was that reviews say it was noisy. Well, it is not noisy at all. I have it on exhaust and on high, and it sounds like the hum of an air-conditioner. Something I can live with as long as it cools off the room.Performance-wise, my 10x14 room called off within minutes of installation. Thankfully, I bought two and put it in the other bedroom as well. Works perfectly for SF Indian-summer days. The twin fans--you can have one in exhaust mode (pulls the hot air out) and the other in Intake mode (blows air in).Sitting cooler in SF.
