AIRFRAME T7 White, High-Airflow Cooling Fan System 17", Exhaust Airflow, for AV Equipment Rooms, Closets, and Enclosures

I found the product very well made, and it is working exactly as advertised. Just two negatives: first, the box is clearly marked "do not ship as it is" and "use additional shipping box". It came "as is". Second, the manual (and I though I saw this online as well) says you can control a second set of fans, the Airframe S7, from this one. The connector socket is there on the T7, but the S7 doesn't seem to exist. This is unfortunate - why pay for two controllers? On the plus side, it is very easy to set up and has a professional look. I tried several of the optional settings, and it only took a few minutes. My application is admittedly not what the product was designed for. The climate here leaves the house on the cool side all year, but we have a sun room which gets very hot for a few hours on most days. I'm using the Airframe T7 to mix some air between the two spaces. The doors are glass, so I had to mount the T7 sideways between two wall studs and add a wooden "frame" to fill the space between the back of the unit and the sheetrock on the other side. At the other end of the room I used a passive grille. More flow would be nice but even 200 CFM is enough to reduce our heating bill a bit, and the noise level is low. Now for the wish list: - I wish I had found the Airtitan line. The Airframe seemed closest to my needs of the items which came up on Amazon and even on AC Infinity's site, but the Airtitan is marketed as a crawlspace ventilator, so it tends not to come up as an "also viewed" or "similar items" product. - I wish the mounting holes were not quite so close to the edges of the frame. If you are mounting to a wooden or metal door they are fine, but any softer material is likely to fail. - What I really want is the controls of the Airframe, power and form factor of the Airtitan T7, and louvers of the Airlift. Ideally there would be minimal air leakage when the fans are off. - A minor item: it would be great if the display was rotatable. I had to mount the unit up-and-down, but the display looks odd that way. - I know they can't build every variation I can imagine, but I have to ask. Still five stars, because the product is excellent for the intended purpose.

I was looking for a solution to better circulate air through an equipment closet in my studio, in order to balance out humidity and temperature with the room and protect the several instruments I keep inside. I already own several AC Infinity products, including CLOUDPLATE and AIRPLATE series items, so the lack of reviews for this specific product (AIRFRAME T7) didn't sway my decision to purchase. Since this was going to be installed in a critical listening environment, noise was of course a crucial factor. That said, the fans that come installed from the factory in this item are not suitable in this regard. For A/V, network closet, and home theatre, the stock fans work extremely well and are indeed very quiet.. However, (even at the slowest possible speed) the stock fans emit way too much noise for pro studio, or any environment where absolute silence is crucial. I knew this going in, which is why i didn't ding them for a star. The fans are not very easy to replace either, but with a background in electronics (and having done the same on similar units from them), for me, it was a piece of cake. With the original two 120mm fans replaced with equivalent PWM fans from noctua, these units are absolutely silent and oh so absolutely perfect! In summary, this was by far the best possible product on the market - though modifications were required to suit my specific needs. AC Infinity brilliantly fills a niche here with an excellent product and outstanding customer service.

Works well keeping a closet that I have my computer equipment inside at a steady, safe temperature. A little noisier than I had hoped it would be but it’s not so bad that it is annoying. I initially had the threshold for fan speed steps set too small and it was constantly changing speed, which made the sound more noticeable but after increasing the threshold, it stays at one speed consistently and is OK. I would not want it in the living room or bedroom due to the noise but in a hallway it is tolerable. It’s aesthetically not bad. Easy enough to install in a door if you have some basic wood cutting tools.

So let me start the fan has one fault and it could be a little quieter but I knocked it down 2 speeds from its highest and you can barely hear it. That’s the only fault I wanted to be fair and this not to sound fake so with that out out of the way let me say what I want to say. 1. It looks awesome but judge that for yourself. 2. Can’t get any easier to install. Cut a hole stick in hole plug in and put probe where you want it. 3. Awesome features guess I didn’t read well enough before buying cause the features way exceeded my expectations. I thought it was a set temp and that’s it so reread all the features cause there were 2 or 3 that are nifty as heck. Lastly 4. And the big reason I’m writing the review I judge a company not by when things go great since everyone seems great when things go right. It’s when things go wrong that a company shows there true colors. If you have an insurance company do you judge them by how well they take your money or how well they process a claim? With that the fan arrived broken. Is what it is things happen. I called amazon who answered the phone instantly with a live person instantly. That alone startled me and it was a person that spoke very clear English again threw me. The amazon person politely explained that this was done threw a third party seller and asked if I wanted her to call them to connect us. I said sure and writhing 30 seconds I had a rep from the company on the phone. Again I’m speechless was prepared to put in a movie to watch while I waited. So now that I’ve been on hold threw this whole thing maybe 45 seconds the rep takes all my info asked me a few simple questions about the fan and said sure let me fix it. They second day aired a new fan to me before I had the old one shipped so I was out a fan for about two days I can live with that. So in a nutshell love the fan I have NOT had it long enough to say it’s working 2 years later but I’m super impressed right now. Hope this helped someone.

I have a powerfull computer under my desk that creates a lot of heat that gets trapped in that area so I needed a solution to evacuate all that hot air. Finding teh T7 was a blessing I was browsing for fans to make a custom solution when I found this product, It works as intended. I have it configured to start automatically when the temperature under my desk reach 85 degrees and so far it works flawlessly turning on and off by itself as needed. It can be a little noisy at full speed. It is easy to install if you are handy and have the right tools but it can be a mess if you dont know what you are doing and depending on the material you have to cut out. The product includes a template that makes it easier to align properly.

Very good product that keeps my server room cool. Airflow is good but it's noisy.

This is just perfect for my NAS server setup. The cabinet that I build needed an exhaust fan to get the air out, just having air ventilation was not doing it for me. The controllers on this is nice because of the temperature sensors built into it. The fan will begin working as soon as it feels too hot. The amount of air flowing out of this thing is just amazing, and very quiet. You just wouldn't guess it from first looking at it. The overall fan performance is nice and I'm just glad this product worked out for me.

AC Infinity products are great, but there is one significant design flaw in all of their fan systems designed to be installed in cabinet/closet doors or side panels, the power and probe connectors use straight connections into the back of the units. So, if you are already tight for space with a rack behind a cabinet door, you lose another inch of depth just because of the plugs. They are also at greater risk of being broken off because they stick out. AC Infinity should definitely change the deign to use 90 degree connectors or at least include 90 degree adapters so customers have the option if needed.
