HG Power 10 Inch Exhaust Fan 988 CFM Kitchen Exhaust Fan Wall Mount with Backdraft Damper, Metal Plug In, Extractor Exhaust Ventilation Fan for Attic, Basements, Ceiling, Shop, Greenhouse

The media could not be loaded. Needed more airflow for our medicinal gardening room. I grow in an open room with a fan in the window. Our latest crop was odiferous and outdid our 190cfm cyclone fan. I searched Amazon and found this 10 inch that pulls 900 ish cfm. What a difference. Since the room has all hvac shut off, not much air circulates and the lights heat the room to about 75 degrees in winter. Summer is about 15 degrees higher. With this fan in the window, the cfm output is high enough to draw in the cool air from the door cracks without letting the odors out. Yeah, it is loud but its high cfm so... worth it. Running continuously. Last fan ran for 6 years and still functions well. Will report back if it fails.Update a few days later. Yes this fan rips. Yes it keeps the smells of my garden out of our house. We grow legally so stealth is not a concern. However, my neighbor complained about the sound. Mind you we are not that closely housed. Her home is about 60 yards away and I had mounted it with no ductwork to an exterior window. I went to the hardware store and purchased 25 feet of insulated 10" duct hose. I moved the fan into a box (cardboard amazon reused for testing). I ran the duct hose in a snaking pattern to the window with a cheap 10" flange to mount at the window and placed the fan inside the room. I ran the duct hose through the box and used leftover foam from packaging inside the box to add sound deadening. Inside the room the fan is still at 80 decibels but at the window you cannot hear it at all outside even standing next to it. It still pushes a ton of air but now quietly. So if you want high flow and stealth, this is your fan. You just have to do a few extra steps.

This fan does 550 cfm max... My profession is Test and Balance. I removed the backdraft damper so there was absolutely no restriction and max FPM was 1015.

SOMEWHAT DIFFICULT TO INSTALL IN AN EXTERNAL WALL BUT GOOD QUALITY

Love this fan !! I have a wood shop and this is the second one I have bought. I bought the first one to exhaust fumes from our laser engraver and let’s just say it was so good I had to turn the heat / AC up because it removed all of the heat in a matter of minutes. The second one I put in our finishing room to exhaust some paint / clear coat finish from the room and it works great . I like the fact that the motor is enclosed which I think will make it last longer.

We have a microwave vent fan but it would still allow the house to get smokey enough to set off the smoke detector.I installed this and hard wired it to a wall switch so I can't speak for the built in wire switch but the fan definitely pulls the exhaust out.

Great power. but very loud. Also, the fan flaps spring is very weak, and they easily flop open and slam shut in a breeze. Trying to figure out how to install a stronger spring.

Trabaja muy bien un poco Ruidoso pero muy util

Este extractor de 6 pulgadas superó mis expectativas. Lo instalé en la cocina y elimina el humo y los olores en segundos. Tiene 308 CFM, lo que significa que mueve bastante aire, y aún así es bastante silencioso.Me encanta que venga con interruptor integrado, porque hace más fácil el encendido sin tener que hacer instalaciones complicadas. Es compacto, fácil de montar, y se ve moderno. ¡Lo recomiendo si buscas un ventilador potente y funcional!
