    A:  No, you'll have to provide wiring to the motor, of course you could add a thermostat then. Great fan, be sure to make a sturdy frame to mount it in.

                  A:  I found no vibration issue with mine.

                  by|Jun 22, 2019

                    A:  I just installed one and unless you don't have it secure it does not vibrate. I added 2 screws on each side in towards the middle around the outside to hold in tighter to the building. Works great!

                      A:  I added a brace at the back of the motor to the wall to stop the vibration. Otherwise it would have destroyed itself quickly.
