Reverse means the fan spins in the opposite direction

#

Reverse airflow fans will draw air in through the ugly side and blow it out the pretty side

is that a bad thing or a good thing

Its for aesthetics mostly

In fishtank cases for example you’ll see the ugly side with regular fans

#

But reverse fans will show the pretty side while still drawing fresh air into the system

Yes

#

Where you can see the plastic bits for the fan
