I may swap my 2006 29RK for a 2006 29CK. The wife has always liked the 29CK---so. The only problem is the 29CK does not have the Fantastic fans. We dry camp a lot so some type of vent fan is a must have. Has anyone installed powered vent fans in a 29CK that did not come with the Fantastis Fans. Is the 29CK pre-wired for a powered vent fan? Any information would be appreciated. Need to know before I decide on this swap.

Do your bathrooms have a vent fan?

The bath room has a small exhaust fan and I am satisfied with that fan.

I want to install a fantastic fan, or maxxair fan, in the main living area. I can do the install if there is power available for the fan at the vent, or close to it.

Look to see if you have a 12v light fixture nearby. If so you may be able to run the wires by simply and gently pulling down on the ceiling and pulling the wires through.



Any reason not to remove the existing fan from the bathroom and replace with the Fantastic? I took one of the power vents out of our Cruiser and replaced with a MaxxFan. Although I have two Maxxfans, running just one creates quite a breeze. Running one in and the other on exhaust creates a hurricane.

Reg,

Most dealers offer it as a add on. I would remove the trim ring and look around. The only thing you would have to controll it fron the fan itself

I installed a maxxair fan in the front vent in the living room. There is a light close by that I wired into.

If you want your Fantasticto be thermostat controlled, you will need that wiring to be installedplus the 12 volt power feed. If there is a unit with built in thermostat now, then that problem would not exist.

I believe Fantastic Fan makes a unit with a wireless remote control. That would solve the useability problems.
