you have me BLOWN away at the cleverness of using hair bleach developer to whiten that!!!! Seriously, I cant get over it!!! so so so smart. I don't have 40 I have 30 laying around but I'm gunna try it and see if it works! Might just have to leave it out for longer. but TIP for anyone else: Sallys Beauty carries Salon Care brand, also any brand of developer would work in theory just needs to be a high enough level.

Thankyou. Do you think peroxide would work

[@StevenTanner-oh2ef]

This works on shoes too

[@gallom325]

Great illustration and instructions! I just ordered it. Thank you. Once installed I'll send you a photo. 👍🏽👍🏽 I just realized I can't send you a photo. But it looks great and I am really happy I ran into your video.

That is exactly my old fan which jammed and smoked up the RV. This will be a great replacement.

[@kphyfe]

Charles, Thank you for a simple replacement option. I was looking at moving the fan from the bedroom to the bathroom but the amount of roof work needed to do that was not worth the effort. The fan in the bedroom works fine and I thought about going to one of the 10 speed fans but the cost was not worth the effort. Thank you again for something that will make things better in the bathroom.

Hey! Great job. I found that you only need to remove the old motor but NOT the bracket. The bracket does not interfere with the new fan in any way. Best regards

[@jillmulholland8855]

I'm gonna do this. Your info is helpful, thankyou

[@PO-sz7qw]

Wow way better. Nice video. Old one sucks, I have same one. Not doing anything

[@angelahardy4747]

Thank you so much for the time and step by step instructions

[@daddie_longlegs9357]

Thanks Charles super video!!

[@edumaldonado5059]

great video...thank u

[@mvmac2]

Great video. We just completed this upgrade and the fan is unbelievable compared to the stock fan. 2 things We didn’t need to remove bracket. Also the knob to raise/lower the vent might need to be adjusted. Not difficult just be aware. Otherwise great idea/video!

Drill out the spot weld instead of grinding.

[@rudyromano2402]

does the black wire from the fan go to the positive side of the rv wire and white of fan to the negative of rv electrical system.?

[@steelpix]

My 2018 RV fan opening is 14 x 14. Will the Vortex 2 work?

[@TruthsHandmaid4444]

So you don’t change the roof opening, just the inside insert can be changed out? - If so, I so want one!

[@TruthsHandmaid4444]

Oh and the salon care, can you use it to whiten an RV shower? If so, how? I’m guessing you could just tape it up with plastic for so many hours. Oh and fyi you can get that Salon Care at any Sally’s Beauty- if you have one near ya-

[@TheMomentEnds1]

those stock bathroom fans are so loud!

[@Tsch6373]

First time I saw the stock fan, it had to go! Had a Fantastic fan (Dometic) installed before my TT was delivered. Serves as a whole house fan when the ac isn't needed. The new fan is quiet, my TT is 25' and its being at one end and I in another, cannot hear it on low. Haven't tried its other speeds...

[@raffaele4471]

I watched you're video thanks for that great incite. I have a 2012 27DBUD Salem Camper washroom fan needs replacing can you let me know the Vortex II will fit/work in my camper. Thanks for you're time.

[@charlescoushaine]

Should fit into any standard RV bathroom vent opening.

[@raffaele4471]

@charlescoushaine Thanks for the reply. I measured my out today it's 13x13 opening, Is yours roughly that size?

[@jillmulholland8855]

How would you suggest if I don't have a wall switch. Would it be fairly simple to add one to the wall. Your Chanel is very helpful thankyou. I'm a new subscriber

[@charlescoushaine]

Adding a wall switch can be challenging in an RV, however, I might recommend that you add a simple switch right to the fan housing or wire it to get powered when the ceiling light is turned on.

[@mustangdbest220]

How much cfm does it move on high

[@charlescoushaine]

No sure of CFM, not specified in manual but substantially more than original fan it replaced!

[@mustangdbest220]

@@charlescoushaine ohhh that's weird it should say somewhere on the box or in the instructions manual
