Most problems pushing air from one room to the next have to do with ventilation in general. That is, if you're pushing air into a room and you close the door in that room, with thick carpet, there's no way for the air to escape the room - so your fan isn't going to work.This suncourt unit is nice in that it's sound level, even on high, is relatively low. But one other benefit is that it has a variable speed dial which allows you to, effectively, turn down the volume. Most fans settings consist of either a high, which is obnoxiously loud, or a low which doesn't push any air. So this fan pretty much takes care of that issue.I used it on top of a standard 4" x 12" floor 'register' by just using 3 pieces of 12"x12" (2" thick) foam pads purchased at a hardware store. I took off the register grill. Cut the 4" x 11" center out of the the bottom one to go over the duct opening. Then cut the top two out with the enclosed 'wall' template cut-out included with the fan. The foam helps insulate the sound and doesn't seem to affect the airflow any. You do have to make a 'plug-in' end for the fan as it only comes with a 'pig tail'. So get a $6 extension cord end at the hardware store as well if you plan to plug it in to a wall outlet. It's not glamorous but it works pretty well and I believe it moves far more air than a standard register (insert) booster. Not to mention, the 'grill' you see in the picture can be rotated 360 degrees to direct the air in any direction you want.I'll try to include a picture of my install in the user photos in a day or two. 12 of 12 people found the following review helpful. Works well By Marty Engebretsen Oasis Assembly I have lived in the home I am in for over 14 years and have always had a problem in the winter with getting heat from the wood stove into the back bedroom. With this through the wall fan it has increased the temperature by about 5 to 7 degrees. It was worth the price for the extra comfort. 7 of 7 people found the following review helpful. Suncourt thru-wall room to room fan By kgriffis I own a pellet stove that I have in the basement. I was leaving the door to the cellar open and letting nature bring the heat up. Sometimes the room in the cellar was 80 degrees or more. With this fan mounted at the top of the stairs and exiting into the living room I am getting the heat where I need it and the cellar is cooler. It's a win win. I was having trouble with the fan initially and sent it back for a replacement. I again had problems and worked with the company to figure it all out. They were very patient and I found the problem was mine, not theirs. The fan works as advertised, maybe even better. I encourage anyone that needs to move air from one space to another to purchase this product. See all 10 customer reviews...
