[VAC] Re: Fantastic Fan Installation older coaches



Greetings Toby!

I have Fantastic Fans installed in both the forward (kitchen) vent opening
and rear (bathroom) vent opening in my 1964 Overlander International.  The
Airstream Trim kit worked beautifully with the Kitchen vent location, but
wasn't readily adaptable to the bathroom location as there is/was
interference from the wood partition for the accordian door.  Even without
the Fantastic Fan trim kit, the fan in the bathroom looks right at home as
the original trim remains around the opening.  I am not certain that it
makes any difference, but my coach did have the original power ventilator
fans in each of its vent locations.

My Fantastic Fans were installed by the factory representatives at the WBCCI
International Rally in Dayton, Ohio.  They have been one of the best
investments that I have made in the coach - - they truly do increase the
summer comfort of the coach when Rallys do not have 30 Amp power available.
Both of my vents have the thermostatic controls as well as the automatic
rain sensors - - they have been absolutely trouble free for the past three
years.

Good luck with your decision!
