What's In The Box?

  • TPI 24-In. 2-Speed Heavy Duty Belt Drive Whole House Fan
  • Owner's Manual

Description

Cutting into ceiling joists is often the hardest part of fitting a whole house fan, and the TPI BD24-2-WHS is made to avoid it. Its No Joist Cut shutter works with your existing ceiling framing. The fan itself stays up in the attic, out of your living space, while it pushes a high volume of air through the rooms below.

TPI builds this fan in the U.S.A. with domestic and foreign components. A gray steel housing gives the BD24-2-WHS a sturdy frame for the attic it lives in.

Key Features and Benefits of the TPI BD24-2-WHS 24-In. 2-Speed Heavy Duty Belt Drive Whole House Fan

  • Dual-Speed Airflow: Low speed moves 2,700 CFM and high speed moves 4,500 CFM, so you can pick gentle circulation or a fast air change.
  • Belt Drive Motor: A belt-drive motor rated at 1/3 horsepower turns the blade at up to 612 RPM, giving you heavy-duty airflow from a compact frame.
  • 24-Inch Blade: The fan blade spans 24 inches and is sized for a matching duct, letting it move a large volume of air with every rotation.
  • Automatic Shutter: The No Joist Cut shutter opens when the fan turns on and closes when it shuts off, so your ceiling opening seals without any effort from you.
  • Hardwired Power: The fan connects to a single-phase supply of 110 to 120 volts and draws up to 5.7 amps, which helps your electrician size the circuit correctly.
  • ETL Certified: ETL certification confirms the fan has been tested to recognized electrical safety standards, giving you confidence in a permanent hardwired installation.
  • Electronic Controls: Electronic controls run the fan and work with the automatic shutter, so the attic opening closes whenever you switch the fan off.

Check Your Attic Space Before You Install

The fan measures 28 x 29.5 x 14.5-Inches (L x W x H), so confirm your attic has room for that footprint and height before installation. It weighs 40 pounds. Because the fan is hardwired, plan to have it connected to your home's 110 to 120-volt electrical supply rather than plugged into an outlet. Note: To run both the 2,700 CFM low speed and the 4,500 CFM high speed, a 2-speed controller is required.

Sylvane's Expert Take

If you're a homeowner who wants strong whole-house airflow without cutting ceiling joists, this fan suits you well. The one thing to know before installing is the controller requirement for 2-speed operation, so plan the wiring for both speeds from the start. With that planned, this fan is a strong fit for a home that needs real air movement.
