Option to Replace Fan-Tastic Roof Vent 6500/410 With Remote

Question

Question:

I have a Older Model Fan-Tastic vent fan Model 6500 with a 410 remote controller. The fan IS GOOD but the remote controller is going bad. What options do I have to fix/replace the 410 remote controller?

We have spoken to Fan-Tastic Vent about this issue in the past, and they have confirmed that there are no replacement remotes available for the 6500 model as it's no longer in production. So if you want to still use your existing fan but also wanted a remote, they said what you can use is the Fan-Tastic Vent 7350 Series Upgrade Kit # FV807359.

However, this is similar to getting a brand-new vent, so you can go that route, with a number of different options. For a powered lift with a remote you can use the Fan-Tastic Vent Roof Vent # FV807350 or the MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent # MA00-07000K.

For an option that has a wall mounted switch there is the Ventline Ventadome Roof Vent - White # V2119-1-533 or Smoke # V2119-3-533.

Finally, for the most economical option, you can also go with a manual lift vent, the Ventline Ventadome Trailer Roof Vent # V2094SP-30.

I have added links below to video reviews for you to check out as well if you'd like.

Hi Kyle, I'm not sure if this blog is active or not but will ask anyway. Is there a control box wall mount (not a remote) available for the Fan-Tastic Roof Vent 6500/410? Thx Lendy

@Lendy There is not a standalone wall mount, I'm sorry to say. Fan-Tastic counts the remote as the "wall mount" because it has brackets to mount to the wall, so the # FV807359 upgrade mentioned above is the best I can offer.
