If you get a MaxxFan instead of a Fantastic, it has a built in rain cover so you can leave it open in the rain without needing rain sensors that may malfunction in the future. I paid $150 for the 3 speed version. It is also more aerodynamic than a Fantastic fan when traveling down the road.

Thanks for the idea Andy, I better stick with the Fantastic. I like how they have a good customer service dept & I have heard a lot good things.

Thanks again everyone for all your help with this! It would be fun to meet at a campground & I could try out our new dutch oven & make you supper.

You can also get a Maxx fan cover to put over the FF and leave it open even in the rain.

I think I read somewhere that the Aeroflow vent cover will work too and it's a bit less expensive.

I too did a bunch a research before choosing the Fantastic fan....Who would have thought that picking a fan could be so complicated!

Happy to hear that Vintage was easy to deal with, I'd hate to recommend a place and then the person have a bad experience with them.

Can't wait to see the pictures of your newly installed fan/vent!

Cheers! Emily
