MAXXAIR Maxxfan Plus High Powered 10-Speed RV Intake and Exhaust Fan - Manual or Remote Control Electric Opening, Easy Ceiling Controls, Rain Sensor with Automatic Lid Closure, Smoke (00-04500K)

You wouldn’t think you could get excited or think much about an RV bathroom exhaust fan, but this fan does it. We’ve had everything from the very cheap junk fans the manufacturers dump on RV buyers to the best model Fan-tastic makes and none of them are even in the same league for comparison to this fan. This is a really nice fan!The controls on the fan are a little confusing to use, but that’s not the case with the no brainer to figure out remote control that has an LCD display that shows you everything thats going on, and comes with a mount to attach it to like a regular wall switch.I really wish this product listing had more pictures than just the outside top of it, the part you never see anyhow. A better picture of how it looks on the inside and of the remote is badly needed as well as a picture of everything that’s included in the box. The lack of both almost made us hesitant to not buy it. The description really needs to be better as well. We were hesitant to buy one with a motor lift because what happens if the power goes out or the lift motor fails and you need to open or close it? The description and lack of pictures don’t show you there’s also a very easy to turn (unlike other hard to turn fans like the Fantastic or lower quality) manual hand crank knob.The dual supports for the lid is a far superior design. The electric lift motor is a little louder than it probably needs to be, it isn’t loud per say, but you can hear it running up and down. The manual hand crank to over ride the motor if need be is very smooth and effortless to run it up or down unlike all the other brand fans out there.The fan itself is insanely quiet, on lower speeds it still moves plenty of air but is so quiet that even standing directly under it with my head inches away I keep finding myself looking up to see if its actually on. Even on the highest speed its quiet and can’t be heard at all from just a few feet away, and it really moves the air.One things for sure, after having used every other brand of fan out there over the years we’ll never be buying any other fan again other than this exact one. Its only flaw is in the operating buttons on the actual fan itself being a little confusing to use and not a real feeling of if you’re pushing the buttons or not, but with the remote mounted to me wall on the included wall mount bracket you never need to use those buttons anyhow.We added on the sold separately inside LED lighted cover that Maxxair also sells and its really a nice combination, looks and works amazing.

Not too much to dislike. Easy install, reliable fan and can it move the air at high speed! Nice alternative for AC in our not so large RV. Very quite, love the remote control and dedicated key pad alternate. Also like the temperature and manual control options. Great little vent fan for a reasonable price. Install took me about 2 hours and that included running wires to power that were not there before and I'm 70. One thing that should be provided which was not and that is the fan should come with an inline fuse. I added a 7 amp fuse as the current draw at high speed is about 4 amps. Don't forget circuit protection! You don't want your camper to burn down should you experience a short.

I ordered this product and it was marked as delivered. Amazon refunded the money and I ordered it again. The second time was the charm and it arrived quickly and undamaged. Thank you Amazon for that. I recommend reading the instructuons and looking at instructional videos on youtube. Butyl tape and self leveling Dicor caulk is needed for instlation but is not mentioned in the listing. I tested the fan before installation to ensure its operation as it would be difficult to remove for return. I did this in response to some reviewers who reported that the fan did not work properly out of the box.The instructions were easy to follow and the unit went in as expected. I used the inside trim from the old fan to measure and mark off the new trim to ensure correct fit. This unit is a big upgrade from the very small exhaust fan that came as origional on my RV. It moves plenty air and can be reversed. It also can be cleaned from the inside. The original fan could only be cleaned from the roof. Overall i am pleased with the results. Only one star for the remote because I did not purchase that feature. I would buy this again.

Good fan, well-built and easy to install. One reason I bought this was because other reviews said it was quiet. It is only quiet if you have it on a low setting, at any of the medium or higher speeds, the fan is fairly loud and on the highest two speeds, it's very loud.

Had a MaxxAir manually operated lid that I replaced with this fan. Because the two fans are basically the same model with different internals, I was able to actually take all of the "guts" out of our manual fan, and replace them with the guts from this remote controlled fan. Installation was about a 2 hour job, but I didn't need to disturb, or redo any of the sealing on the roof of our camper. Remote works great, and has the bonus feature of a temperature controlled setting. Have actually used it to pull hot air out of the bathroom, and it works well!

Quietly moves a lot of air. Very quietly. Even with the smoke/shaded lid it lets in a lot of light, this may or may not be a good thing depending on your preference. The remote control is a bit large, comes with a holder thing you attach to the wall to keep it in (handy) and takes a minute to figure out. You can't use your old "vent cushions" with this type of fan.Fan is feature rich. We like the temperature control and rain detection. We also like that the cover automatically opens/closes.The hardest part of the install is cutting the interior trim to fit the thickness of the ceiling. You'll need the right tools. Other than that, easy and straight forward. You will be getting on the roof.Worth the money.
