Great Fan - Not Quiet
This fan moves plenty of air. I don't know why you would want a bigger one. We have a 2400 sq ft house and it makes a nice breeze through the house. It isn't quiet, so I am glad I mounted it in the back room. I don't think any fan with this amount of power is going to be quiet though. Overall I am very satisfied with it.

The install is quite involved requiring a box frame to be built in the attic and of course wiring to the 2 speed switch. I suggest using 2x8 lumber for the frame which will raise the fan up a few inches and reduce the noise. I mounted it on foam pipe insulation and used metal straps to hold it down to further isolate the vibrations.

Really moves the air but a bit noisy.
After reading some of the other reviews about the noise generated by this unit we took pains to mount this on thick foam weatherstrip. It was also positioned on top of the framing rather than between the ceiling joists so as to gain a few more inches of distance. As a result, there is no appreciable vibration transmitted to the house structure. The noise of the air movement is still appreciable, especially on HIGH.

This fan really moves the hot air out of the room quickly!
Great fan
Fan works well. It's a little on the loud side, but not too bad. We installed it ourselves and didn't have too much trouble.
