    Q:Does this fan control humidity or only temperature?
    by|Sep 26, 2020

    Answer This Question

    A:  A fan can only control temperature in the immediate sence, but if your attic is under insulated or not insulated: lowering the temperature in the attic will also help reduce humidity caused by cold air conditioning air getting into the attic and mixing with hot humid air and turning it into water that can cause mold and rot in the attic. Generally speaking, without the other necessities though the fan will not be enough to control the humidify.

    by|Sep 28, 2020

    A:  The ERV5WW comes with a thermostat only, an optional humidistat can be added. The ERV5WWHT, the HT standing for Humidistat/Thermostat combination comes with both. If you have any other inquiries about our Master Flow products please call Technical Services at 800-211-9612.

            Q:I just bought the 1250 CFM model, but noticed the motor is labeled for only 1000RPM. Is this expected, or am I not getting what I paid for?

            Answer This Question

            A:  The motor does not provide a CFM rating the 1000 is the revolutions per minute of the motor. The motor and the type of blade determines the CFM rating. If you have any other inquiries about our Master Flow products please call Technical Services at 800-211-9612.

            by|Jul 28, 2020

              A:  It is capable of moving 1250 cubic feet of air per minute. Evidently a 1000 revolutions per minute motor is required to do this.

                  Q:need to know what it measurements of plate, & does it come with plug? built in thermostat??

                  Answer This Question

                  A:  The hole in the roof is 15" diameter, the same as the one it replaced. The cable from fan is terminated in metal box that contains the thermal switch that turns on the fan when the attic temp reaches the temperature you set. You run your power cable (Romex), to this box. In one youtube video I watched, they connected the fan to a plug ended power cord, after they cut off the receptable end to strip the wires for connection to the fan's metal box. They did this so they could pluig the fan into a nearby outlet, but stated that their fan's instructions said don't use a power cord.

                  by|Jul 21, 2020

                    A:  It is built to be hard wired. Run a dedicated circuit to the supplied thermostat. Included in the fan is protected wiring from thermostat to fan motor. Cut 10 inch round circle throigh roof sheeting. Fan has approximately 16 inch flat metal base that fastens to the roof sheeting
