I am looking for a vent cover to protect my fantastic fan cover from being damaged from the wind. Would this cover work for that purpose?

This will fit all Fan-tastic vents pretty well. As for the wind - if you live in an area where the wind will damage the cover of your vent, you have bigger issues to worry about. The cover of the Fan-Tastic vent is pretty sturdy. This cover is designed to protect your vent from debris and water while allowing it to remain open for ventilation purposes.

yes it will I am very satisfied with the vent simple to install,spend extra and get bug screens

the cover is heavy duty and will protect the original cover that came with the fan.......I forgot to close mine and traveled down the highway at 60 mph and nothing was damaged..........hope this helps you !!

yes. it protects it while driving so you can leave it open if you want. It serves as an almost fully enclosed shield for the vent, except for the grated opening. The cover extends several inches longer than others, offering more protection and allowing you to operate your vent in the rain.

Yes, that is what I use them with. I have two Fantastic fans and these covers were the answer to my prayer as I wanted to use the fans in inclement weather. We love these cover for that purpose.

It should. I use it in my attic where it get extreme temperatures. I would shield it from the sun.

I set mine up to draw fumes or hot air out of my garage. It fit perfectly into the opening of a roof vent. It is only max 400cfm so your volumetric flow is not high, but to move some fumes it works. I found paint spray vapor deposited on my fan blades so it does work somewhat ok. But it is not sealed, spark proof or waterproof so think about your application carefully & be sure you are not creating a hazard

It should be installed somewhere inbetween the exaust fan and the thing you see outside. I bought thiss to stop cold air from coming into the dryer. Works better than the vents that are normaly outside which you would keep. If you really want to stop the air completely (which I did) then you'll have to doctor this up a little bit. A Flood Light doesn't even penitrate mine after. It works great now

I use this cover as an indoor dust cover, but the material and fit would seem to be great for outdoor use. It has a full elastic hem at the bottom. Adding grommets would seem like a good idea to use a bungee cord to keep the wind from blowing the cover off.

Ironically, we have had very high winds with storms over the past two days. No problems with the cover what so ever.Works like a charm.

I can't imagine it could withstand wind, if it is above the windshield. I'm short and I like the way it makes the visor go further down the windshield and block the sun. The small piece can be moved back and forth for extra darkening. I like mine. Hope this answers your Q.

Absolutely not! It is a good idea to take the cover off one a year or so and blow the dust off but by removing the cover you inhibit the airflow over the cpu and mobo making the cooling fans useless. The case is what generates the wind flow. Keep it clean and covered and you will have no problems

Yes. It will mount to a non-fan vent with out a problem.It will keep the rain out. And it works (allows air to circulate) while driving down the road.

I installed it on my fantastic fan vent and it works great. I also calculated the exhaust area of this unit and it is 30% larger than the one I replaced. My old cover did not have a screen inside and let in long pine needles. This cover has a screen inside and has kept them out. My unit is in storage so I cannot measure the actual height.

As long as the vents are metal. I used it to protect my metal door from our dog when he scratches to come inside.

Are you looking for a cover to place over it for storage, or a cover to keep it out of the elements so you can use it outside during nasty weather? There is a thing called a GenTent that supposedly allows you to use it during a storm. I debated getting one of the GenTents but didn't because we have decided to get rid of our Generac GP5939. (I was never comfortable with the GP5939, and we ended up having a whole-house 20kw automatic generator installed a couple of months ago). But here is the Amazon link for the GenTent information in case you want to look into it: http://www.amazon.com/GenTent-weather-safety-portable-generators/dp/B0088EVIR4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1382283399&sr=8-1&keywords=gentent

I already answered this. It does nothing to protect against cold air. It didn't fit my doors, and I use it now as a cat toy.

sorry haven't installed this vent yet. but I would believe it would work as long as its not placed where water will constantly splash on it.

I returned it. All I needed was the cover that broke in the wind. Fantastic fan sent me one at no charge except for shipping...

Yes, I have used mine for that purpose. Just watch that the wind does not blow out the flame so keep an eye on it. I put a metal wind screen against mine if it's a little breezy . It will simmer !
