5 year warranty ?

Review Posted 10/06/2016 
Purchases a XL5 exhaust fan 220 cfm, pulled great but stopped working after 2 hours probably a misplaced movement in a shafter retainer. Not getting anywhere with the great advertised 5 year warranty that suckered me in.

The FG8 is not easily found on the market. E-Comfort has it at a very fair price and they were easy to work with. The E-comfort telephone operator was cheerful, helpful and informed. E-Comfort shipped the fan for free. The product works exactly as expected, which is excellent.

Review Posted 08/18/2014 
I used this inline fan to hook up to my vent hood in my kitchen. Even though this product was assembled in America, the motor was made in Germany and you certainly can't go wrong with German technology. I also brought LD10 silencer to attach directly to the fan and placed the silencer between the vent hood and the fan. I also purchased the FC10 clamp to hold the silencer and fan in place. I find the clamp itself was not good enough to hold fan and the silencer. To give me a piece of mind, I first used the metal tape to tape the silencer and motor together. Second, I snapped in 10" metal duct and screwed 8 Marco zip 1/2" screws (4 screws for silencer and 4 screws for motor). I applied another layer of metal tape over the screws to seal any potential air that may escape. Finally, I used the FC10 clamp to lock everything up. I used flexible duct for two sections. First section is to connect vent hood to the silencer and last one is to connect fan to the roof cap. The flexible duct is highly recommended to prevent any vibration from the fan. I turned on my vent hood at the lowest setting and you can tell immediately that there are some good suction going on. It was so quiet and my refrigerator was actually louder. At the highest setting, you can't hear the fan that is located in the attic. The only thing I heard at the highest setting is the wind (similar to the sound of A/C return air). Cooked bacon, curry, fish sauce, other various other pungent ingredients and fan will suck all of unwanted odor out of house. Just a fantastic design and my only regret is that I wish I done this long time ago. Next to replace the bathroom vent with Fantech fan.
