Fully remote fantastic fan in kitchen/living rm and shure-flo gold in bed room.
Shure-flo acts like a ceiling fan w/dome closed besides exhaust/intake w/full
variable speed controll.
We love them both.

Had one in the bedroom of our old fiver and loved it. New fiver came with a FF in the kitchen and bathroom, we added one in the bedroom. Best way to go if you like to camp without AC. They will cool down a trailer that has been sitting in the sun all day in a metter of minutes.

Sounds like you've decided to go with it, but I had to chime in and tell you that I would do it. I had a camper with one, then I had a camper without one... I can't live without it. The amount of air they move is amazing even at a low quieter speed at bedtime they keep the air moving. I wish I could install one in my house.

We have one in our living/kitchen area and it is great. Using it right now.
We were caught in a hail storm in Georgia and the vent lid on the Fan-tastic was slightly broken. The customer service sent a new lid free. Over the years we have called them on problems and the factory tech's have done the trouble shooting over the phone and sent us free parts to fix it in every instance. Great company.

We agree with Dick B for the most part. Noise would be a factor in the bedroom for us but we use the one in the bathroom for cooling the bedroom We had one in our bathroom for 9 years. Did eventually install one in the kitchen area but use it more for a skylight than the fan BUT it's good to know it's there if we need it.

Our two are great and we'll probably add a third to the bedroom. Here's a tip: if you have one of those bathroom fans that make mostly noise, you can replace it with a computer "muffin" fan. It was so quiet that we generally left ours on 24/7---an always fresh bathroom.

I would "not" get a fantastic fan, especially in the bedroom. get a Maxxaire type instead. can use in rain, noise/fan is moved out and down and is quieter, etc.

We just bought a fantastic fan at camping world and will be installing it in tall living area today, has remote control and rain sensor. We have friends with them and have seen to advantage of them, don't think the bed room would be the place for one.
