Fantastic ultrabreeze vent cover-recommend?

Hello everyone,

I have two Fantastic fans on my coach and want to get vent covers for them. There are many brands and would like to know if you would recommend the vent covers made by Fantastic vent. They seem to be specifically made for the Fantastic fans and would think they would work better than another brand.

Your opinions are appreciated.

    I understand that, but not having the openings on the cover itself screened allows droppings from tree branches, leaves, etc. to enter the fan and get below the blades. At times they will get stuck in there and can be a pain to get out. The screen is just another way to stop this small annoyance.
  • I have the fantastic vent cover. Works good and they used to be one of the better companies to do business with. Not sure now, I heard they are under different ownership.
  • I put the fantastic fan in our coach and used a regular cover, first the top wouldn't open very far which restricted the air flow, bought the fantastic cover and what a difference it made. Go with fantastic cover.

  • We bought new Fantastic fans and vent covers for a rebuild we are doing on a 99 Damon. Look fine, although they are a little larger. The thing I did not know and did not like about them is that the area the air enters or leaves through the cover has 1/2" holes that are not covered with screen. We went to a glass company and bought stainless steel screen and glued it on to fix the problem.
  • Check Camco Vent covers, they seem to have better UV stabilizers in their products so they last longer.
