AC InfinityAIRFRAME T7-N White, High-Airflow Cooling Fan System 17", Intake Airflow, for AV Equipment Rooms, Closets, and Enclosures

Moved all of my electronics into a closet and didn’t realize how hot it would be. These fans looked like the perfect solution. I ordered the intake, and also a exhaust. Super easy to install and they look really nice as well. They could be a little bit more quiet on the max setting but for the most part they’re not super noticeable. I’ve seen people post about replacing the fans with higher quality lower noise fans and I considered it but it’s not bad enough to warrant that unless you’re really producing a lot of heat because the automatic mode throttles down the fans when full power isn’t necessary based on the thermostat reading. The one gripe I do have is the length of the cable to connect the fans together if you buy more than one you can have a master/slave situation so they work in conjunction. My closet was a little big so the wire was too short to make the connection. If you just use one at the top of your door and one on the bottom it should be more than fine. Other than that I’m happy with 2 months of constant use no issues at all.

If you get an intake fan, you will need to make sure you buy the exhaust fan. This ensures there is enough airflow in and out of the media center. There is very little chance of overheating with all of this installed outside your closet. The displays on the controllers are a nice touch and the interface is easy to use.

Product is attractive and comes in an intake and exhaust version (though you can flip the direction of the internal fans yourself with nothing more than a screwdriver and a bit of pulling to remove the hot glue holding the fan headers in place).My product arrived damaged with a cracked internal fan, so I had to replace them.Included fans are 120mm x 38mm (deeper than a standard computer exhaust fan). I replaced with Noctua NF-A12, which is only 25mm deep.Note: 4-pin PWM fan headers look like they fit a standard computer fan plug, but they do not. The two "teeth"/"keys" in the plug are very slightly off. Additionally the female header on the Airframe's control board are slightly too thin to fit a standard 4-pin PWM fan header.I had to use a razor blade to shave off the "teeth" on my Noctua headers, and then had to cut off the bottom edge of the female headers on the board. The fans work perfectly well with PWM control, but after the modifications the headers fell out of the board very easily. I had to super glue them in — tape didn't work for me.See photos attached.

Super high quality. Lots of airflow with not much noise. Installed the airframe inside my entertainment closet wall which vents into the evening room. Intake air will passively come in below the closet door.The programming ability with the included buffer feature is highly convenient.Be sure to order the correct intake/exhaust airframe for your application.$150 well spent (airframe and white vent grille)I highly recommend AC Infinity products, the quality is superb and the warranty is definitely a plus.

Great ventilation fan. I use a pair (intake and exhaust) for my ‘server’ closet. Install is very easy and it comes with a great plastIc template to use for the cutout. So much better than paper templates. A few minor complaints:- the power cable that can be used to connect two units together is to short unless the exhaust and intake are on the same surface- finding compatible fans that are quieter is not as simple as you may think due to the specs- having two a separate models for intake and exhaust is just silly. The fans are just reversed in the housing and a switch would have been better- I went through multiple units to find a pair with decently quiet fans because there is a lot of variability between units

Let me start by saying that I really like the AC Infinity product line. They're functional and they look great. However, this product missed the mark a little bit.To start with - I bought the unit but it took a few months before it made it to the top of my project list. I finally cut open my walls (unfortunately, it's wider than a stud bay, so you'll be doing some frame work or cutting a stud)... That's not really the product's fault - but they should offer one that's <=15" so it'll fit a standard stud bay for in-wall use.Once I got it all cut in, I fired it up for a test run - and it was blowing in the wrong direction. I put this over the door to my AV closet. I never would've even expected them to sell two separate SKUs - one for intake and one for exhaust. How stupid is that! Adding a direction switch or menu option HAD to be cheaper than adding another SKU to inventory! Oh well - they're just fans, and I'm past the return period - so I just popped a few screws out and flipped the fans. Problem solved.Then I turned it on... on it's lowest setting, it's pretty quiet - but given the use, the fans used really aren't the highest quality. Other reviewers commented that they eventually swapped the fans - and I may have to do the same. I don't need extra noise in a room unless it's something expected, like excessive heat causing the fans to kick up to high... but even on speed 2, they're noisier than they should be.Then there's the settings - this is where they really blew it. My lower level is usually 65-71 degrees. I want to set the fan to auto so it kicks on any time the room is 72 or higher. Well, the fan turns up its speed in increments as it gets closer to the set temp - not as it goes over. So, in order to maintain a 72 temp and keep the fan running as slow as possible unless it gets hot, I actually had to set the fan to 82. This way, at about 72, it kicks on at 1, then as the temp rises, it automatically kicks the fan speed up. This makes no sense - the set temp should be the activation temp; anything below shouldn't activate the fan, and as the temps rise from there, the fans should increase speed.It still does the job well, and everything else is great... you have the ability to expand the system, add intake grills if needed, etc. However, for how good it looks, they should've used a fan direction switch, higher quality fans, and made the menus make more sense. That said, it's installed and it does add a good look to the closet, and I find it does a pretty good job of keeping the temp inside the closet pretty close to the ambient temperature of the room while running on its lowest speed most of the time, so I'm happy with it nonetheless. If the fans get noisier or fail, I'll definitely replace with something of a higher quality and quieter.
