Read the description carefully. This model does not have reverse or a remote. It seems fine, except for that. The description is for the entire line of fans, and is confusing.

I am building out a van to live in full-time on my YouTube channel Vanessa‘s van life journey. I have a max air fan in my previous van and I love this product. It gives great ventilation and circulation so I knew I needed to purchase another one it arrived fast And I have already installed this fan. I would definitely recommend this product and re-purchase it again if needed.

Our camper van had an old style rooftop fan that died and was ready for something better. Love the design of this one where you can have it open at highway speeds or in the rain. Very quiet as well. And looks good 👍. Fairly easy install, as long as you are comfortable climbing up on the roof of your unit.

Wonderful upgrade for my travel trailer. It is quiter than my old one and pushes more than double the air though it. Installation requires removing your old vent fan. Will need some self leveling lap sealant (available on Amazon at Walmart or any RV supply store) and everything else is included in the box. It is a pretty straightforward installation. Highly recommend.

Ordered a little while back for camper project, when time came to install, the fan won't work.Specifications were used and respected, but it won't turn on.The fan was kept in package until ready to install, in a safe environment.No support from sender. If you order, make sure you test within the first couple of weeks as amazon won't replace the defective product after 30 days. A build project takes time, you could end up not installing within 30 days, and with a defective product.

Purchased this item earlier this month. Finally found some professionals to install it. Got it installed only to discover that it has a faulty circuit board - post installation. Had to order a 2nd one.While it advertised that it came with a remote, on the box & other places- sadly this model didn’t come with a remote and I don’t see any remotes that match the model # 00-06401, and I am vertically challenged - a remote would have been helpfulPost installation of purchase of 2nd fan to replace circuit board- I discovered that the circuit board # 2 is also not working properly- when I power it on - it should start at the lowest speed # 1, but it starts at highest speed of # 4 then goes to 1. It’s not working properly- bottom line. It’s a malfunctioning circuit board- once again I refuse to purchase anything more - this product is already installed and I am unable to get it uninstalled- I will have a hole in my roof. Super irresponsible on the part of the manufacturer and this is not okay.DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT-

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 roofButyl seal tape to place between the roof and the exterior flangeLap Sealant (one tube is plenty used generously) to seal the screws and exterior edgeSome 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 sourceWire strippers/cutters/crimperI 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.Doug & Heather....on a beach somewhere!

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.

Installed one in our 23' camper above the main bed. We boondock, so the only way to cool the camper at night was opening all the windows and vents and then using a personal fan.Exterior installation was straight forward and similar to other vent replacements (ie, they're all a pain to remove the old sealant.) Inside was a little tougher to manage the wiring. I used a Dremel with a large cutoff wheel to cut the trim to length and smoothed the edges with a knife (which was unnecessary because it's hidden.)The unit is very quiet on the lowest setting and still moves a decent amount of air. High setting is not loud, but noticeable. If you have the vent closed, it becomes much louder, and is not really designed to work that way. When the camper is hot in the evening, running it on high for a while exhausts the hot air and make inside a lot more comfortable. The screen is easily removable for cleaning too!Looking forward to next season and will be picking up another (with a remote this time) to install in the back of the camper!
