A:  It would be too loud in a living room.

A:  Definitely! My shop is 40x60 and I installed the fan to exhaust hot air and reduce the humidity because I have no end to end ventilation. It's still hot in there but the reduction in the humidity and a floor fan makes all the difference.

A:  NuTone, the fan company, used to make an adjustable on-off temperature switch, rated at 5.3 amps. I don't know if it is still made, but the switch I installed for an attic exhaust fan 20 years ago has never given me any trouble

A:  Hi Loui, for this Shutter Fan, if ordered on Homedepot.com, will be purchased and shipped as it appears on Homedepot.com. We are not able to make changes to the product and do not offer the shutter by itself. We appreciate your business and look forward to serving you in the future. Thank you for shopping Home Depot!

A:  I asked this question some time ago for myself, and they said they did not have a vendor for a shutter. . . Suggest you contact a HVAC company and see what they say if you want an automatic, other wise a carpenter can fabricate one for you. . . .

A:  I am not understanding why you need a shutter on the other end. I have a louvered opening to the attic on the gable end of my house and also added 5 Soffit vents under the eves on the side of the house.

A:  Hi Odiesdad, we do not offer an additional shutter option for the 5000 CFM Power 30 in. Single Speed Shutter Exhaust Fan on Homedepot.com. We appreciate your business and look forward to serving you in the future. Thank you for shopping Home Depot!

A:  Reply to Gene:: The apartment building we are in does not have soffets. Only small vents at each end. We live in Mesa AZ and the temps are about the same as Phoenix. HOT!! Living on the top floor, 3 floors, we get the heat as much as anyone else. I am trying to convince the "powers that be" that they could save a few thousands of dollars on HVAC by going to attic ventilation. There are twelve of these types, 3 floors, and 6 of the 2 floor types. If they put 5000 CFM fans in, there must be an exhaust of the same amount at the other end. That is why I asked if H/D sold a matching relief device. Thanks for your answer. . . . . .

A:  Forgive me if this is a duplicate answer. There is no sound Db listing in the specs that I received. However, when I turned the fan on the only sound is from the blades, and it does move a lot of air. I certainly wouldn't consider it loud, not much more noisy than a big ceiling fan.

A:  I couldn't find anything in the specs I received but on turning it on, other than the actual blade sound (it does move a lot of air), it was not loud at all.

A:  Use of the product is solely at the purchaser's discretion.

A:  If you really want to invest in one, there a lot of motor controls out there. They are pretty expensive for the horsepower you are using. . . Check the web sources for some. . . .

A:  Thank you for your recent inquiry with The Home Depot, Sunnypoint. This fan has a 1 Year parts and service warranty from the manufacturer. We appreciate your business and look forward to serving you in the future. Thank you for shopping Home Depot.

A:  one year, they are located in San Francisco.

A:  I would be reasonably sure there is one, probably 1 year, but there was nothing in the instructions that I received about a warranty. There is a service center number 800-317-1688 listed which could probably tell you.

A:  You can add to it but at low speeds you may need to adjust spring tension on vents

A:  No, it is a single speed fan.

A:  This is a single speed shutter exhaust fan. To order a variable speed fan, please choose ILG8SF18V. You will also need to purchase a variable speed controller, model # ILG8SFSC.
