That's what I'd have expected it to come with. I wonder how that control would work with the old Industrial?

They look great! It's nice having fans in the bathroom so the mirrors won't fog up after a shower or bath. Are they working off of a 3-speed slider?

Wow, I really like those Atlas wall mount fans. I'm just wondering, how noisy are they?

The included 3 speed slider / oscillate on-off control, yes. Wow, I really like those Atlas wall mount fans. I'm just wondering, how noisy are they? They're not exactly quiet. Think high power HV portable fan, that's basically what they are. Low speed is bearable noise though, they move so much air you don't usually need a higher speed.

Middle of the summer? It's only mid-July, not so fast.
I thought about getting one but seeing the ad and price I was afraid it would not be like on the picture and they don't ship outside the US. Anyway if I wanted one I could get one locally. Did you had to cut the extension pole or they come with more than one?

So it's not the actual middle of the summer season, sue me. It really warms up in early June and starts cooling down in late August here, July is the climax of the summer heat. That's middle enough for me to not get in the attic under regular circumstances.
I was afraid it wouldn't be what was in the picture too, but I read the one feedback that had been left and it said specifically they received exactly what was pictured, and at $20 I thought it'd be worth a gamble. $20 is a great price even for a crap industrial fan, could've used it as replacement stock, etc. if it didn't work out. I used different downrods I had on hand that ironically enough came from Envirofans, these fans only come with the long rods and I wanted to keep them intact.

Don't get uptight for this. It has nothing to do with temperatures. I was surprised at first that you got these as I remember you say you don't like the Platinum Line much but for that price I understand. So it's really just like on the photo with a longer pole and all. Some versions have a shorter 20 cm pole and others a long one. Do these have an actual brand to them? They don't seem to have the big blue sticker on the lower canopy that the Banvils have.

They look good, Cole! Can't wait to see what else you have planned for the new house in the future!

Any idea how many fans will be throughout the new house?

They don't seem to have the big blue sticker on the lower canopy that the Banvils have. ? ? ? I really don't understand you a lot of the time. Kind of depends on the variant of Platinum Line/Agrifan. The version here would probably be considered my favorite, with this upper canopy and no drainage plug in the motor. I used to not like them as much, but this variant is about the same as a Gold Line for me now. Otherwise I would probably prefer a Gold Line for appearances sake, but I'd take any style Agrifan if I needed them for an actual wet location. These are labeled as 'Vosterman's Ventilation' and they call it 'Multifan'. It seems the Multifan name applies to other products in their line, it must just be more of a product classification than it is an actual model name. Any idea how many fans will be throughout the new house? Not entirely sure. I explained this on my post in the Facebook group, but I'll also add it here. Originally when we talked about moving my parents were all like 'yeah we can put fans everywhere', so I was really envisioning an entire layout and I was gonna go through and give them some options of what I thought would look good in each space so they could pick out fans they would like for their own home, at least in the main living areas. I figured I'd have some freedom to swap out the spare bedrooms as I choose. But then I try to steer toward picking options out with them because I want to start installing, and I get 'we don't want those fans everywhere'. Really typical, my parents are very supportive of my hobby but if I kind of push the topic, they push back hard. So that puts me in the position where I have to push back harder. Usually if I just do it, they'll come around and see my way, especially here because the fans are definitely an upgrade to most of the light fixtures in the new house. But the problem is I have to do it super slowly, if they came home to three new fans all of a sudden installed we'd probably have a problem. If I do one at a time all spread out, it just blows over. They had no idea I was doing this stuff in the garage, I just did it basically in one day and thankfully my dad was actually happy with it. I don't think my mom ever really cares, but she of course backs up whatever my dad says. Since I don't live there it also takes a lot more coordination than ever before for me to get there while they're out, and have enough time to put in a fan box and get a fan entirely installed before they get home, so there are a lot of moving parts now compared to before.
