Maxxair covers and Fantastic fans
Can you combine a fantastic fan with a "normal" Maxxair type cover? Will that cover block too much air movement? I already have the cover and don't want to remove it for one of the powered ones.

- Yes and they work great… no the vent cover doesn’t fully open but it doesn’t need to…

When we had our fantastic fans installed, we had them install the Ultrabreeze covers from Fantastic Vent. Here's a video showing a fantastic fan with different vent covers over them...
Thanks for posting that. It demonstrates the reason why I use the Ultrabreeze cover. Yes, you can use others, and I have in the past, but they do restrict airflow.

I always get a kick out of that video. They tested every MaxxAir vent plus others except the Fan/Mate Which was their recommended cover before they came out with theirs.:B
- I have never had much luck using a cover over the Fantastic Fan! They always seem to trap way too much moisture and Drip!
- Another plus for the Ultrabreeze by Fantastic Fan is that it has four quick release pins so you can easily/quickly pull the cover off and clean.

This is a issue that I have never encountered or ever heard about, I wonder how the moisture could be traped and collect in there…
The one thing I do is to remove the screen that covers the rear opening… that is the only thing that restricts air movement…
