Hi, At 14:40 you should've use a strain relief, Because that metal box have sharp edges, That may cut into the wire.

[@PlanItSendIt]

Good catch, I'll have to remember that. Ty for the feedback! ❤️

[@pjpucci]

Very good review. I was looking for this information that was useful. Thank you.

[@PlanItSendIt]

Thank you Sir. I felt the same way when I was searching the reviews too. Glad to here it was helpful 😊

[@sumone6077]

amazing video, just what I needed before pulling the trigger on one of these fans.

[@PlanItSendIt]

Thank you :)

Isolation pads should be installed with the roundness to the outside just like the bracket is... you got yours backwards... you are getting a lot of noise transfer the way you got it but it'll work fine...

[@PlanItSendIt]

Appreciate the feedback. Next time I'm up in the attic I'll try to correct it because for the most part it's definitely quiet, but if I can do it better, it'll be worth the effort.

Did you ever post part 2? Curious on the followup on your fan.

[@PlanItSendIt]

Ye Sir. If link doesn't work, I posted part 2 on the 2nd video after part 1. kzbin.info/www/bejne/j5OyqZ9trp5lnpY

you forgot to seal all the gaps with Aluminum Duct Tape... Didnt they supply the black panels that go around the fan? Mine had it 4 panels...

[@PlanItSendIt]

If you watch part 2, you'll see I corrected myself, but I didn't use aluminum duct tape... which is a good idea. 👍

What is the demention of the fan. 16 inches?

[@PlanItSendIt]

Good question... I can see the documentation only shows "shipping" dimensions. I apologize I don't know and if it were easy to get into my attic, I'd go up and measure it real fast, but it isn't. I recommend emailing QuietCool for the answer. Hopefully your question will drive them to at least update their website.

[@artcaballerojr]

Thank u for posting the video

[@akanesoratobu8889]

14.5 inches

Who was watching the chicken at 10:30?

[@PlanItSendIt]

:) they were comfortably in the coup locked up safe... at least tested against a coyote that I've caught trying to find a way in.

[@vernonsteinkamp1088]

These videos never cover the mysterious way the power is hooked up to the house/breaker box.

[@PlanItSendIt]

I don't know about others, but mine would require quiet a bit of work to trace a cable to the breaker box. I have a general idea of how it flows, but that's the extent of my knowledge. That's why for this installation I just tapped into what was in the attic. I at least know which breaker it's on though... just not the path to the box.

You do know this fan is useless right? Air like water draws from the closet point. So you are drawing air in from the top louvers and exhausting it out via the fan. The attic is completely out of this loop. You need to block the top louvers so air will be drawn from the attic area. Nice try but it needs work. Physics at work

[@PlanItSendIt]

I have plans to improve the air flow from some of the comments, but I recommend you take a look at part 2 where I shown the qualitative and quantitative results.
