• You should use a heavy guage extension cord if you use an extension cord. a dehumidifier uses a lot of electricity and has water- it can be a hazard to use an extension cord.

• I'm using it with an extension cord with no problems. Just make sure it's a good heavy-gauge one.

• Seriously doubt that would be true of a fan. However, I have one in my basement and it is plugged into an extension cord and works perfectly.
