Steve replace vent covers with any cover you wish but then install max air covers over top.

For your regular vent: Maxxair II | Latest
If your fan is high power then: Fan/Mate | Latest
If the fan is a regular bathroom fan then the MaxxAir II will work.

The maxx air and the camco aeroflow are the two most popular vent covers. I think most people go with Maxx air for the cover.

If you need it install videos for both the camco and maxx air

We love our Fantastic Vents! They have them in different models but they all push and pull a lot of air. We bought the Fantastic Vent covers as well but just keep in mind that a lot of air requires a larger opening on the vent cover, otherwise you'll overheat the fan motors... so whatever vent cover you buy, make sure it has adequate airflow...

I like and use the Maxx Air II. It is a little more expensive but has more air flow and easily flips up for cleaning the screen of the vent.
