Like Craig333, we swapped the fantastic for a Max. We kept the interior edge frame from the Fantastic to make the job even simpler. We then upgraded the Max to the Max with remote. The remote model is all open or closed with the remote, but for both you can manually adjust the opening. With the Max, you can also run the fan with the vent closed to provide circulation over the bed. You can also set the Max remote to close at a specified temperature - just remember to point the remote at the fan to make sure the commands are accepted.

Went out to Woodland yesterday and FWC did a factory warranty install of a second Maxxair fan to replace the faulty standard vent. Looks and works great. Thanks Brenda!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I do notice that the black push bar hits the manual knob on the new unit when the top is down. I think I will just remove the knob as the fan works with a remote. I will velcro the knob to the top of the push bar to use in the event that the electronics fail. Having the knob accessible will also be good for "cracking" the vent as electronically the vent can only open all or nothing.

 

They gave me a second remote with the new fan, but I found that only one remote is needed. It operates only the fan that you point it at. Pretty cool
