As delivered the controls are inside the crawlspace
It is not evident from the description but the controls and power cord are located towards the crawlspace. This provide exhaust through the plain looking cover. However I have no power in the crawl space. It is easy to remove 16 small screws and flip the fans. This places the controls and power cord outside. My vent is below the deck and deck roof so are isolated from the weather. I believe it is important to protect the controls from weather. Once reversed, the unit whistled rather loudly. I cut out the sheet steel grids and reduced the whistle considerably.

Still Running That s the Main Thing, Right?
Installed these fans to circulate fresh air under my house which is off of the ground. Install was easy although you need to consider the size of the unit carefully, had a make a few customizations since the fan footprint is fairly large.
So...I waiting a year after the install...these fans have been running constantly and are doing a good job so far in a fairly harsh environmental. I have noticed a difference in both the air quality and humidity since installing the fans, great improvement. I d recommend it, wish I had bitten the bullet and done it sooner. Especially if you live in a humid location these fans help quite a bit!

Great Product
I ve spent most of my life in mechanical engineering. This is a good product, quiet but moves the air. If you need one of these you can feel safe buying this one.

Works Well
I combined mine with smart plugs, so I could cut the power off without crawling under the house, on cold or rainy days

Just as advertised! Does it s job!
Nicely built! It is the dimensions given in the description. It does make a low hum, but I did not find that distracting or annoying. I have a remote receptacle to shut it off if I m sitting out on the porch early in the morning and want complete quiet. Mounting over a standard foundation vent on a house you ll need some way to securely attach it as the ears are right at the edge of the 8" opening. It is not a big deal, but you can t just slap it up against the foundation opening if it is a standard size and just screw it in place. Being a little bit handy or at least basically competent will help you a lot. Note the 2 pieces of scrap angle iron are used to secure it in place quite easily.

Does the job
I experienced a water leak under my house that saturated the ground. I tried using fans to circulate the air and pull out the moisture but it didn't work. In the end, I had a contractor cut a hole in the foundation, install a nice cover, and put this fan behind it. It has been running for about two months continuously with no problems. It is very quiet. On the recommendation of another reviewer, I had the contractor use rubber washers between the fan and the foundation to reduce vibration and have had zero problems.

It really works in musty spaces!
We live in a humid southern rental house that has a mold problem. In order to avoid absorbing moisture from the outside air and causing more condensation in the crawl space, making our dampness and musty problems worse, we closed all Foundation vents. 4 days later, I checked tonight and was surprised to find that there was no musty smell and the moisture disappeared. I like that you can set it and forget it because it only runs at the humidity setting you choose (we choose 50%) and does not run when the temperature is below 35 degrees.
CADPXS Reply: Dear Ortiz, It is designed for basement and crawl space.

Well worth the money!!
I purchased 2 of these for the crawl space for our house! We flooded from Hurricane Florence and although we were remediated from the storm the moisture under the house would really never leave to the tune of 75%.
I installed these on either end and after 2 days of run time, the moisture level dropped to 45%!
They work as advertised! I'm a mechanical engineer and appreciate the fact of the variable speed fans!
CADPXS Reply: Dear Danny, Ventilator fan and dehumidifier can be used together to achieve better results. Very lucky to serve you. Thank you!

Great! Smoke free cigar room!
Very quiet, high tech with high settings for heavy venting and low for general basement ventilation. In my case, I made custom wood window panels for the installation of two units in basement windows. Even when smoking a cigar, with these dual fans, all smoke is ventilated outdoors with no upstairs smoke smell! They minimize the effect of cigar smoke on the family and the cigar room itself. Living in Minnesota, outside isn't a viable option for cigar smoking! Love them!
CADPXS Reply: Dear Customer, Thank you for your valuable feedback. The biggest function of our products is to remove smoke and improve the air quality in the room.

Experience in using CADPXS ventilation fan for the first time
I have a new long and narrow house with a crawlspace, a foundation that presents a greater risk of damage due to humidity, including mold, than slab or basement foundations. I installed two of these fans in crawlspace vent openings as a relatively inexpensive form of protection from high humidity.
I installed weatherproof GFCI outlets next to each fan, mounted the fans to 2" x 6" base plates with 2 x 3" #10 screws on the prevailing downwind side of my home, and set them in auto mode. The fans were too big to mount inside of my 16" vent openings, so I mounted them flush with the inside of the concrete block and cut 16" x 1.5" foam insulation strips to seal the top of the vent openings. I used insulated staples to mount the sensors near the centerline of my house, about 18" below the joists.
DC motors in these fans are a significant design advantage, and the fans are really very quiet. Bonus, the interface is clean and simple and it also supports SI units.
CADPXS Reply: Dear Happens, thanks for your kind feedback on the Brand. With your consistent support, we have made great improvements both in products and service, to let more customers get items that are nice and reasonable.

The unit is working well!
My house is in Alabama, and a lot of things have happened here recently. I have a basement area surrounded by crawl spaces. The humidity level was very severe this summer, which brought a musty/musty odor to my basement and back-up wardrobe to the basement stairwell. I tried to use a dehumidifier a few years ago, which more than doubled my monthly electricity bill.
I spent a few hours reading the comments and details of this unit. For this price, I have nothing to lose. I installed it. I use rubber gaskets for noise installation and make sure to seal between the device and the wood.
The place where it is installed is not the high flow or sleeping area of my house, so fan noise is not a problem.
I am surprised that the moldy, damp smell is now gone. I am very satisfied with all aspects of this fan unit. It exceeded my expectations.
CADPXS Reply: Dear Sanchez, Thanks for your feedback, it is great to be able to help you.

Very happy with its performance
I installed this fan in my garage door to vent out the heat that is created by not being insulated. This fan works great and even though is about 18"x9", it does a pretty good job. I added a thermostat to make it start at 80 degrees with a 2 degree differential. I put window screen stapled to prevent bugs from coming in and during winter I will water-proof it. I also opened a side window to allow fresh (outside) air to come into the room and replace the hot air going out through the fan.

Quiet and effective
Added 2 fans in my crawlspace to get air movement and allow the crawlspace to dry and get rid of the stagnant air.
Honestly, you can barely hear the fans from outside of the house. The crawlspace is much drier and the air seems fresher and the smell is so much improved. I gave it 4 stars on the installation. I would have preferred that the flange or cover plate was slightly bigger as it barely covered my opening and made it more difficult to install. Anytime you are working in a small crawlspace the work is annoying and more difficult though. Otherwise, we are very happy with the product and results after 2-3 months of operations.

Well worth the money
This fan has saved our house. We have a dirt floor crawlspace that starts to smell pretty gross since we live in the marsh in Florida. The smell goes directly up into our house through the floors. Since we installed the fan, the house has completely stopped having a weird musty smell.

This is a great product - we have been using this unit for about a month now and are very happy with it. It is very compact so it fits in a corner very well without being too intrusive.
