Just curious about this....
I've ordered 2 Fantastic fans to replace the original factory fans in my Cougar
I currently have the standard Maxaire vent covers installed now.
However, I've noticed that the Fantastic Fan website only recommends that their brand of vent covers be used. That particular recommendation doesn't surprise anyone, I don't blame them for promoting their products
What caught my attention the most was them stating
that their brand allows 100% air flow and the "other" brands can block the airflow by as much as 75%
That is an impressive stat
So my question is;
Would you folks please share your experience with using the standard MaxAire vent cover with the Fantastic Fan
Did you find that the Maxaire worked good?
or
Did you have problems with air flow restrictions? Noise? or etc
I appreciate your time

Depending on the Fantastic Fan model you ordered, you may need the Maxx Air II covers. We replaced the OEM fan in our Jayco WhiteHawk with a Fantastic fan and Maxx Air II cover. All work was done by the selling dealer. Think the Maxx Air II cover is taller than the original Maxx Air to accomodate the fan cover when opened, but I'm not sure. I was told by the service manager the particular Fantastic model I wanted required the Maxx Air II cover. In any event, I'm very pleased with the fan and the Maxx Air II cover.
