Vent cover for Fantasic Fan?
I was going to get a Maxxair Cover for my bedroom Vent. I was told that you can not use them on a Fantastic Fan. Is this correct? if so why?

SOME of them have an electric motor that raises and lowers the lid.
On these models a cover over the fan can cause the lid to crack if not big enough and/or not properly installed.. I assume the FF cover is big enoguh. Install is still up to the installer.
Not an accurate statement. The FF with the electric motor will stop if the lid touches an obstruction. When used with a cover that does not quite allow full opening, the motor will stop and the lid will not raise any higher. I had one for years that operated that way and, as far as I know, they still do.
