Leave a Review QuietCool Smart Attic Fan
Too much HOT STUFF
The wife and I decided to upgrade and improve our attic insulation and the habitability of our home.
One of the improvements made was the addition of an attic fan.
This attic fan came with an app that allows the wife and me to monitor the condition (temp wise) of issue attic.
We love it and it has made a measurable difference in our home.Show lessJeffreystoops
Great-until you change phones
Tempted to get a new phone? Don’t. Unlike virtually every other app I have, this one has to be paired with the fan if you get a new device. This is a MAJOR defect. Dev could make it portable (my home’s alarm system recognizes a new device) but evidently they think customers have no value after they’ve sold them the fan.Show lessLDMDRD
VERY well thought out - Home Assistant would be 5 stars
One of the best consumer electronics companion apps I have experienced. It’s really part of the overall product design which is easy to install and straightforward to use.
The control box is designed to mount in the attic and so how to you trigger pairing mode to add other house memebers phones - via the app. Obvious once someone tells you - but imagine if you had to go through the crawl space to press a button.
The design is pretty much - set and forget however so you won’t really need to use the app unless you are interested in the temperature and humidity readings. You might use it to switch from summer to winter settings twice a year. Easy defaults are provided - might be improved if there were defaults for different regions.
The device is capable of connecting to the home WiFi in order to update its firmware. This works seamlessly.
The company are missing a selling point for us Home Assistant geeks - it would be great to use the ESP32 chip and its WiFi capability to allow us to see the sensor data or perhaps even control the fan in tandem with other home automations.
Bravo guys.Show lessJOYCEDA
