I can only use it on low, else it's so loud you can hear yoursel throughout the house, not just near the fan. My wife can't stand to hear it at all be we paid $600+ for and it's going to get used!

They indicated that it fixed their problem. So, I called and they are sending one. I'm surprised they didn't send one the last time I called and complained about this.

It stays on for 4 hours and turns off. I think there is some sort of board design flaw on the current fans. My last one didn't have any problems until it just stopepd working one day.

I called the airvent people and they said I did'nt have good enough attic ventalation. When I proved to them that was not the case they dropped the ball and here I sit with a $600.00 piece of crap in my ceiling. to top it off the thing starts and runs in the middle of the night waking up my whole family.

They had the right shipping address on the invoice but put the wrong shipping address on the label. I replaced it on Saturday and it was a pain. I completely forgot that they use flat headed screws for mounting the fan to the frame. Why would you use a flat head in an application that requires screwing something into wood? Pure evil. Anyway, I got the old one out and the new one in and I am still having problems. The fan randomly turns itself off after it has been runnning for some amount of time. It can't be due to a back pressure or something like that because it does it on the lowest setting with the slider open. The old fan, before it died, would run for hours w/o any problems Well, I got the new fan. They had the right shipping address on the invoice but put the wrong shipping address on the label.

I called Airvent this morning and they are going to ship me a new whole house fan. It was pretty much no questions asked. I told them the symptoms and they just asked for my address and shipped out a new one. It took about 5 mins of my time and most of that was while I was on hold.
