Fantastic Fan

It seams since I covered my fantastic fan with a Max air cover I don't think I get the circulation that I used to. Has anyone else covered theirs?
Thanks Jim

Yep, same issue. Seems better in exhaust than inflow, though.

I have both vents covered with them. Have not noticed much difference in air flow. I have a large increase in confidence of rain staying out. I can now leave both vents open all summer to keep heat down and rain out.

I don't have any direct experience but wonder if the Fan-Tastic Vent Ultra Breeze cover would work better because it's designed to operate with Fan-Tastic Vent products.



Here's a link to the web site Fan-Tastic Vent's Retail Vent Covers

and a video describing how it works.



There may be no difference between this and the Max Air cover but I like the appearance of the Fan-Tastic product and the video makes sense to me.

Here's a video of an RV owner who used the Ultra Breeze and compared it to Max Air

MaxxAirII is much better than regular MaxxAir. Also, if you get Ultrabreeze, it is only better flow IF you don't get the OPTIONAL screening. If you don't, it becomes a leaf and bug trap.

IMO, of course.
