MAXXAIR Maxxfan Deluxe Vent, Fan and Vent Cover All in One - Powerful 4-Speed Reversible Fan with Thermostat, Built-in Rain Cover, Exhuast Air Only, Fits 14"" x14 Roof Openings, Smoke (00-06401K)

My fault I didn't read the full description, this fan only extracts and has now remote control I thought that the deluxe would have all of the top features .also can't turn it on and off with a remote switch

届くの遅くて予定がずれてまだ取り付けしてませんし開けても無いがMAXファンだから物は間違い無いと思いたい。

Great fan unit, recieved after a few issues with shipping.Was a bit late installing (no issues with installation - very easy), though unfortunately the fan unit emits a high pitched and variable noise at even the lowest fan setting even after a long attempt to break the fan in running at higher speed. Despite replying to my initial email confirming a replacement motor would be sent, promised followup has not eventuated despite multiple reminder emails sent from my end and the passage of several months.

We purchased the 06401K Maxxair DLX Vent to replace the rooftop RV Air Conditioner in our Lance Squire Lite truck camper, because we almost always boondock camp (no generator). This unit has no remote, is manual opening, and only exhausts air at 4 speeds....we went with the simple one. At the lowest speed, the fan noise was unnoticeable. At high speed, it was tolerably quiet. Installation is definitely a DIY project, as long as you're comfortable safely accessing the roof of your RV, and working with power tools and wiring. If you're removing a 115v AC unit as we did, be sure you're disconnected from all power sources before starting, and those units are heavy and awkward up on the roof....be safe. The entire fan assembly fit perfectly in the 14"x14" opening, which, from what I understand, is pretty much the standard size opening for RV roof vents and AC units. I cleaned up the old opening of all old sealant and dirt with rags and acetone (our roof is stainless steel sheet...other materials may not be compatible with strong solvent cleaners). We located12v power just a few inches away at a light fixture. The wiring to the fan motor is about 16ga, and about 18" long, so it was plenty sufficient to reach. I had to drill a small hole in the wood that framed the opening to fish the wires through, and easily retrieved them through the hole for the light fixture wires. The inner cosmetic trim ring will need to be cut down to adapt to the thickness of your roof. I just used a utility knife backed with a piece of wood and guided with a straight edge. The material was thin and soft to get through with a couple of passes. Other stuff you'll need to complete the project: Rags and cleaner/solvent to clean and prep the roof Butyl seal tape to place between the roof and the exterior flange Lap Sealant (one tube is plenty used generously) to seal the screws and exterior edge Some wire butt splices to crimp wire leads to the power source. Maybe some electrical tape to make things neat. Tools: A pry bar to gently release the old fixture from the roof, after removing fasteners. Scrapers for roof prep #2 Screwdriver (a drill/driver makes fastening into the roof much easier). Length of stiff wire or wire fishing tool, to pull fan wires to your power source Wire strippers/cutters/crimper I expect this to be the most useful upgrade we've done yet to the camper....it will allow some diffused light and ventilation where the unused AC unit did not.

Works as it should. Not cheap but is worth buying for me.

Very nice unit, a great upgrade to the factory vent fan in the kitchen area of our RV. The four fan speeds are enough for our needs, we didn't need 10 speeds or a remote control. The lowest two speeds are pretty quiet, it's only speeds 3 and 4 where the fan noise is noticeable. It really pulls air out, much better than the tiny little factory fan. Love the fact that you can keep this open in the rain without water entering. The hardest part of installation is carefully removing the caulking from the old vent, being careful not to tear or puncture the roof membrane. After that it's pretty basic to wire this up to the existing 12-volt wires, then apply butyl tape along the flange and screw it in place (do a test fit first, however). Apply the self-leveling Dicor liberally over the flange edge and screws afterwards. If your roof has a pronounced arc, you may notice that it's a little difficult to insert the four mounting screws that hold the fan to the mounting flange, and it takes a bit of effort to get them in place.
