Your video was great, 11 years after the fact. I installed one today,, and it went very smooth. I did have to use different screws to attach it to the roof, as the screws supplied were much thinner than the ones that were in there before, so I went with the size of the old screws.
Dang i wish i saw this video first!
this was very helpful and informative
Just purchased a MaxxFan and hope to install soon. Will update later. Thanks Mark, great vid!
Thank you for this. It made installing the fan so simple compared to what I thought.
Does regular silycone caulk really eat away the flange?
And even almost a decade later, this video gets a like! Thanks Mark, excellent video.
Thanks Mark..
We just installed a Maxxair 4500K fan and a Maxxair II fan cover. One thing that made it a breeze to cut the garnish trim was my dremel tool w/ cutoff wheel.
Is the thermostat adjustable ?
I heard it was not.

The 3/4" screws going into the side of the fan and the flange should get lap sealant also, correct? You didn't mention that in the video.
Will this fit on a corrogated roof of my RAM Promaster 2015 van?
Can you use eternabond tape to install instead of caulk?
Great video. I watched it a couple of times and followed the step-by-step directions to replace two stock equipment fans with the manual Maxx Fan. Very efficient fan, moves a ton of air, and the temp control setting is a definite plus. Â
I had one big issue during the install. The roof is crowned or rounded, so the roof receiving flange would bend after being screwed in. The bend in the flange made it difficult to properly align the fan to the roof receiving flange–the screw holes just would not align easily. That was definitely difficult but not impossible.
All in all, with a little patience, it's definitely a DIY project. It worth the price of the fans.. they move a lot of air, and they are very quiet.
So is Fantastic Fan for the people with older units not wired for the draw of the Maxx Fan?
I want one but I'm not wired for it, bummer! Can I pigtail off the 12 volt light nearby?
