Pros

Fan is similar to fantech's centrifugal fan design, however it is a modified centrifugal design. These work by modulating the power provided to the fan. The fan keeps the old drafty house pretty consistent.

Fan is powerful and loud,sound dampens when ventalation added but a qiuter maybe called for. Not noisy at all.

One of the two fans was used and smelled like cleaner and burnt wires

Price


As described by seller and a very good price


Fan itself is a good value for the money

Competitiveness


This fan is a beast and is better at developing static pressure than its cheaper competitors which is helpful for downstream fi...  Read More


Im dinging it 1 star due it being significantly more expensive than its nearest rival


For the same price as the jet i built my own cleaner with this vortex blower some duct work and a wynn 9l300nano merv 15 filter
