iLIVING 16" Wall Mount Shutter Exhaust Fan with Auto Shutter Thermostat and Variable Speed Controller, 0.85A, 1200CFM, 1800SQF Covered Area Silver (ILG8SF16V-ST)

Parfait

Works as it should.

This is a great fan. It’s very powerful and has a variable speed control. Additionally, it is temperature sensitive. We desperately needed to circulate the air in a chicken house. Our fan works 24 seven and we have had no trouble with it at all.

For my Greenhouse, this fan is absoletely genious, fan speed can be adjust, fan will be activate by the temperature that you set up or decide.

I received this fan today to use as an exhaust fan in my 2 car garage. Packing was nice with plenty of styrofoam for protection. Mine looked new with no defects noticed upon primary inspection,and contained the fan and temperature/speed control,as ordered. The first thing I noticed was that the power cord was not wired into the fan motor. No big deal because simple wiring instructions are included and I'm experienced in wiring as well,but the ad did not mention "wiring required". There were a couple of small items missing though. The bulkhead fitting for the electrcial junction box was missing,even though the instructions stated that the hardware included aforementioned bulkhead fitting. I happen to have 1 that would fit or I would've had to make a hardware store run. There were also a couple of tiny rubber plugs missing from some holes in the body of the motor. The holes are probably from manufacturing the body of the motor,and there was 1 plug in place but 3 were missing. I filled the holes with a little bit of silicone and continued on. The rest of the initial inspection and test-run was pretty well standard. The fan and controller worked as advertised,although I did not try to set the temp control portion. Turning the temp control knob all the way counter-clockwise bypasses the temp control feature,by the way. There is a power on/off switch next to the speed control knob. The speed control worked well and the fan responded accordingly. One note--if you have the speed control on the minimum speed and turn the power off,the next time it is turned on,the fan will run at full speed for a second or two before the speed controller backs it down to low. Apparently this is normal as mine did it several times when I would turn the power off and back on,so I figured it was just how it works. The slats worked well with no binding and the fan itself seems relatively quiet for a 16" fan. All-in-all,a decent fan for the money and yes,I would buy it again.
