Hi folks - has anyone had any issues with roof pitches that are more pronounced than average?

a bigger pitch would mean debri would get washed off better due to faster water flow, a good thing.

Too many variables to answer this question. My backyard is pretty big, so my neighbors wouldn't care if I were firing a potato gun. You may have a different terrain than I do (or a different relationship to your neighbors for that matter) my 1/2 acre lot is mostly wooded and hilly. Sound echos and absorbs differently with different natural features. Ask your neighbors if the sound it makes bothers them- that's the only way to know for sure.

So far I've used it a couple times and hadn't noticed anything like that. See if it makes a difference between certain ground terrain. (Test it on different types of grounding if you haven't already, like inside a store with smooth floor vs street)

I agree with David Moore, The only one that I had noise from was mounting to the rafters on a 1 foot 8 inch tube. I think the bungee cord is a good fix. I must also say, I have two of these fans. The other one also mounted on the rafter with a very short tube and it runs quiet and smooth.

I believe so I used it on a lesser pitch - just be sure to purchase the correct flashing, both for the pitch and for the roof material.

ours is A-OK. Perhaps the weather contributed? You might have just got a defective one ... Will the seller help?

mine mid range left and right have a small pitch but not much as far as straight up I would have to say 90 % up works for me real well

What datum are you using and do you need to measure the height or pitch of the roof?

They're pretty loud. Not enough to blast the roof off a club. But there decent. It makes my phone pretty loud.

We've used ours about the same and no unusual noise. Squealing sounds like a belt problem like a fan belt on a car.

My daughter said it is a better sound. The pitch on the other was too high. Hope this helps.

Hi John - I would like to help - actually - for our home bought a roof top. In hunting this pile of stuff, I found it is a very competitive market, so some of them fudge their claims. Make sure you have a return option, shipping on them! tvo

I've stood on rooftops in a 20 mph wind, worked in radio cabinets with fans blowing right in my face and never had a problem. Just be sure to use the windscreens supplied with the headset. You will be amazed.

I haven't noticed that problem. I use it mainly for lawn and garden work. You might be hearing tires on pavement.

We have this mounted on our roof in audible mode. Does not seem to bother our two schnauzers. After a few weeks the amount of birds even coming near our roof dropped off dramatically.

The pitch is continuous and goes from low to high. A rather unpleasant sound.

I hear it also. It doesn't happen as often for me. It's probably just some coil whine and should be fine.
