Fan-Tastic Fan with a MaxxAir cover

So I am finding out I really need to add a fan to my 5er to get some air circulating in the evenings. I am wanting to add something like a Fan-Tastic fan and figured I would install it in the bathroom roof vent. I currently have a MaxxAir2 covering the vent and can't open the hatch all the way like before I had the MaxxAir cover. Does anyone run this setup and if so does it still work well with not being able to open the hatch all the way?

Also how noisy are these larger fans compared to the typical little bathroom fan

In my experience, less noise. I have two Fantasics for 22 feet. If you are longer you'll need at least three.

The new Maxx Air Fan Mate 955 like this is taller and I have no problem with my Fantastic Fan,which BTW the cover is designed to stop when it hits anything. I like the clips,they make it easy to open and clean the vent cover.

955 Maxx Air

Not wanting to tear into the roof like I did with the Fantastic Fan I chose to put a VORTEX fan in the bathroom,It is a snap to do with very detailed instructions and it is multi speed and reversible.

Here is an earlier post that is really helpful.
