I installed the unit in the crawl-space above a new washer/dryer hook-up.
Reason:
The distance of the vent hose was about 20 feet. I was using a "Y" 4" PVC pipe fitting to tie in with an existing 4 inch bathroom vent hose.
Pros:
- Wiring a regular on and off switch was easy.
- The unit has excellent draw, zero moist air backs-ups into the room.
- The mounting brackets were very handy to secure to the studs.
- It's very quiet, this was a concern as it is a rental unit and there is a shared wall 12 inches from the unit.
- The unit has no noticable vibration, very important when installing in a ceiling.
Cons:
- I wish the unit had an auto-sensor to turn-on once air pressure from the dryer hit it; for the price, I think this would not be too much to ask.
Concerns:
- I hope it lasts a long time as getting into the crawl-space to replace or repair the unit would be a nightmare now that my teneants have moved in.

I didn't buy the unit because it was the cheapest, I bought this model because it looked well designed.
