SIX STARS! I bought this brand as an attic ventilator because I have another AC Infinity fan (inline duct fan used for venting a laser cutter) and it's a great fan. So is this one. Beautiful fit and finish, sturdy build, paint is smooth, everything is right. Cord is pre-wired, and there's a long cable to the control box, which has a bright, clear LCD display of ambient temp (separate corded temp sensor is included), your settings, time, and more. Mounting was easy. Mounting flanges run a full inch around all four sides, and each side has two oblong pre-drilled mounting holes so you can make small adjustments if needed when you install. Nice two-inch depth from mounting flange to 'front' of the closed flaps, so there shouldn't be any issue mounting this on most homes, I'd think. (Remember, you're likely mounting on an unfinished attic wall) I trimmed the outside of mine in white, but against a brown cedar shingle, the black fan doesn't call much attention to itself. Super quiet! Can't hear it from the floor below, and it's a whisper if you listen from outside. I love this fan so much I'm making people stand in my backyard to look at my new fan. Flaps open from air pressure, and they have cushioned insulating strips to make a nice tight fit when the fan's not operating. AC Infinity packages their stuff like a Ring camera; every item you could possibly need is neatly bagged and tidy; screws, zip ties, zip tie hold-ups, more. My one complaint: The instruction manual. First, it's in 6-point type; I can't read it! Second, it made programming the on-at-high-temperature look like it was going to be complex, but it wasn't at all. Readers: Buy an AC Infinity fan, they're beautifully made! And AC Infinity, give the product engineer a raise but fire the person in charge of the directions. A fan-tastic fan, it was a breeze to install, and I'm not just blowin' smoke. Great purchase!
