HG Power 8 Inch Kitchen Exhaust Fan, 576CFM Metal Attic Exhaust Fan, Wall Mounted Garage Ventilation Fan, Basement Extractor Fans with Backdraft Damper for Home Office Commercial Use, Silver

Needed more airflow for our medicinal gardening room. I grow in an open room with a fan in the window. Our latest crop was odiferous and outdid our 190cfm cyclone fan. I searched Amazon and found this 10 inch that pulls 900 ish cfm. What a difference. Since the room has all hvac shut off, not much air circulates and the lights heat the room to about 75 degrees in winter. Summer is about 15 degrees higher. With this fan in the window, the cfm output is high enough to draw in the cool air from the door cracks without letting the odors out. Yeah, it is loud but its high cfm so... worth it. Running continuously. Last fan ran for 6 years and still functions well. Will report back if it fails. Update a few days later. Yes this fan rips. Yes it keeps the smells of my garden out of our house. We grow legally so stealth is not a concern. However, my neighbor complained about the sound. Mind you we are not that closely housed. Her home is about 60 yards away and I had mounted it with no ductwork to an exterior window. I went to the hardware store and purchased 25 feet of insulated 10" duct hose. I moved the fan into a box (cardboard amazon reused for testing). I ran the duct hose in a snaking pattern to the window with a cheap 10" flange to mount at the window and placed the fan inside the room. I ran the duct hose through the box and used leftover foam from packaging inside the box to add sound deadening. Inside the room the fan is still at 80 decibels but at the window you cannot hear it at all outside even standing next to it. It still pushes a ton of air but now quietly. So if you want high flow and stealth, this is your fan. You just have to do a few extra steps.

It works great! Easy installation. It’s for a bedroom space.

After removing the flappers (they didn't work well and my cover had one already) the fan is fine, but a bit loud. I installed a fan controller ($10) to reduce the speed/noise and now it is fine running at about 50% power. If this had a speed controller included, it would be 5 stars.

Works great

Pulls smoke from out smoker room ...when we smoke meats it is a great exhaust fan

This thing really pulls the air across the garage to it

I am exhausting the hot air from a garage. This thing is powerful and for the amount of air expelled, very quiet.

I bought this fan recently intending to mount it to a plywood board that I would then put into my basement window to help with ventilation when I work on certain projects. So, a temporary use - open the window - put the board in - push the window down onto the board - remove board when finished for the day. I imagine that some people might want to mount it into a hole in the wall for a more permanent installation. It has a sturdy power cord with an in-line on/off switch, but the problem is that the power cord comes out of the fan body well out into the tubular body of the fan! (See pics.) So, if for example you wanted to mount it into a hole in the wall, the power cord would end up either inside the wall or hanging outside the wall. Crazy. For my purpose, where I might stick it into the window for a few hours, I just routed the cord back "inside", in order to plug it in to my indoor wall outlet. So, I was able to work with it so no need to send it back personally, but this design is a bit of a head-scratcher. Something to be aware of. Aside from that, it seems to be a quality fan with a good switch. Not super powerful but good enough for what I needed. ** I am updated this review after being contacted by the maker/seller in response to the review. The end result is that - the fan works for what I needed, so I have no reason to send it back, and they will be looking in to the design. I must add that I am very impressed with their communications and customer service. They were very responsive to my concerns.

excelente material y tamaño

Excellent fan. More powerful than expected. A little louder than I'd like. Good buy.

Awesome little fan . I bbq in the garage when it's cold outside, clears it out pretty good . Its not a quiet fan as expected. Not sure why some reviews say its not loud. It moves a lot of air therefore it makes a bit of noise. Make sure the fan nut is tight, mine came loose .test run it before installing. Overall happy with it
