I have waited a little while before posting this review...
I wanted to make sure everything was good and it worked well.Boy howdy. It not only works as expected...it is better than expected.I wanted to put the 20 inch model in, but my wall would just barely accommodate this one. Suffice to say, this thing SUCKS...literally. I put it up on full blast and the decibel level is on par with a 24" box fan, and that is a great thing. I installed the remote and temp control unit in minutes...and when I set it to what I want I know it is going to do a good job. Tested for 2 weeks.It is changing the air in my house so fast. I can crack windows all over the house just a little, and kick this puppy on and I have a steady gentle breeze. On full blast it is difficult to light a candle.I installed this as a Whole-House fan instead of crawl space or attic fan. It works great. Highly recommend. FYI. Energy draw on high is only 2 times more than a big box fan for a window...and this means I can get rid of like 4 of them. It will actually save me money in the long run.

Works great

Works great in my garage
I like to ability to either set it to a temperature or turn it on remotely to different speeds when I want. I do a lot of woodworking out there and it really helps reduce the dust.

Finally A Fan That Cools Coop
I live in Texas and my coop has been so hot because the heat didn't have a way out. I installed this fan and set it to come on if the temp was 80. This worked like a charm to lower the temp in my chicken coop. Now I think I'm going to install a few in my attic.

Quieter than expected, moves a lot of air, flimsy louvers don't quite close
Pro, in addition to title:> Well balanced blades, little vibration (as opposed to some other reviews).> Remote control is RF and has a long range - I can use it in the house.> Low, medium, high fan speeds are well designed and draw 69, 78, or 89 watts.Con, in addition to title:> Non-intuitive remote control, especially with the power button used to wake up the control and also control fan state. I.e. push once to wake up remote, push again to toggle fan power.> Relative humidity sensor is way wrong and close to useless. Ignore that feature, it's a poor concept anyway.I did the wiring and made a frame from 2x3s, a handyman/carpenter with a long ladder cut the hole in the wall. Inside, the fan is about 12' above the second floor, used as a woodshop.The first photo shows a temperature trace from a commercial grade temperature/humidity logger with the sensors near the power control which I mounted several inches below the bottom of the fan. The high temperature on the 20th was 82°F, the next day it was 89°F. The first day the target temperature was 90°F, the second day the fan was off and the interior reached 110°F.The other photos show the fan installed on that 2x3 frame (1.5" thick), plus 0.5" plywood, plus vinyl siding. They also show the second louver is warped. I think I can fix that from the inside with a couple pieces of coat hanger wire to reach the bent louver.

Overall really good, one little bug....
I got this to help control the temp in my furnace of a garage. Got it mounted, set it up, worked fine right away (and it helps a lot). There is one problem with the thermostatic control I haven't solved yet. The fan tuned on exactly at the set point, and ran all day but then kept running for a long time after the air temperature dropped at night. I did some measurements with a non-contact thermometer 'gun'. The wall the fan controller is mounted on heated up to a max of 100 deg, as did the fan controller housing itself. But when the garage air and wall cooled down the fan kept running for several hours. Measuring the controller temp showed it was still 95 when the wall was back to 80. This is because the controller heats itself up due to electrical losses running the fan motor. So the controller cools down much more slowly than the surrounding wall and air. Therefore the fan is kept running for hours after the air is below the set point. I tried a small metal plate as a heat sink but it didn't help. I don't have a fix yet.

Works great but definitely not "bug proof". Whine present on lower speeds.
This fan does exactly what I wanted it to do. It was relatively easy to install. I cant believe the wireless remote control added a $100 to the price but that is the only way it would work in my situation. The 10" fan moves a lot of air. The louvers move easily and do not restrict air flow. The rounded ridges on the louvers leave openings for pesky bees, wasps, yellowjackets and hornets to explore and infiltrate to the interior. Solved by putting a screen over the exterior opening which restricts airflow a little bit. Remote control is a bit complicated to use and not intuitive. Does work great but the is a persistent whine at medium and low speeds. It's not bad enough to nix it or take a pass on purchasing it but the remote is expensive. I would buy it again and am thinking about buying a spare fan (only). Ball bearings instead of sleeve bearing in fan would improve useful life of fan. Even with caveats, it does what I need it to do and I am pleased with this exhaust fan.

What I needed at a fair price
Easy to install and got it working quickly. It provides me with the air flow I wanted and the noise level is not an issue. The remote works with out a hitch and I have it located 20 feet from the fan and it works flawlessly. Very pleased with this purchase and I would buy it again if I need another one, but for now this is working for all my needs.
