Where to find cabin fans
 
I'm looking to replace/add the fans in my cabin. I called Fountain but they want $250 per fan. Anyone know where to find good quality oscillating cabin fans that aren't ridiculously expensive? The cheapest I've found was 109.99 at Overtons but that still seems pretty steep.

Truck stops.


Fountain is not in the business of making fans. Is there a manufactures name on them?

I bought lights and fans from vintagetrailersupply.com ,I had to fab a couple brackets for the fans bc of where I wanted to place them but all in all good quality items imo. Any RV type sites will have fans and usually lots of styles to choose from.

I spent $30 on a 1 speed fan at West Marine.. Doesn't oscillate, but does what I need it to for the size cabin I have.

+2... I have four of these in my cabin and they work great. All hard-wired in. I've had to replace 1 of them in the last 5 years and I run them all night long every weekend all summer long.

The fan blades are actually blue not grey if that makes a difference to you

Best fan by a long shot is the Caframo 12V.
Extremely quiet, VERY well built. Your boat will be in a fiberglass heaven before the motors wear out in thsese fans. I have two of them and while more exspensive, they are worth every extra dollar you pay after buying the walmart junk or anything else on the market. You'' be shocked at how quiet they run and how much air flow they will produce.
