Fantastic Vent switch?

My question is,are all Fantastic Vents reversible?
On our 2008 3400rl I can't find a switch to change the direction of air,the only switch I find is for the rain sensor.

I believe that the OEM Fantastic Fans are NOT reversible.

I don't think mine reverses either. I never did find a switch for it.

Jack,

If you look at www.fantasticvent.com they have an OEM Tab that lists 30 or so factory equipped models. We must have the 6500 w/414 switch and rain sensor option. No reverse.

I thought they all reversed, but it looks like almost half do not.

I didn't know there was a difference but mine weren't OEM. I had two of them installed in 2003 and one installed in the bathroom in 2007. All three of them are identical. They have an ON/OFF switch,with different speed settings, an IN/OUT switch and a thermostat control. Sorry if I mislead anyone. It was unintentional.

No problem Orv,OEM has everything you mentioned except no in/out switch.
Oem controls are mounted on the wall.

You can add a DPDT switch to the unit.

Do like we did. Replace the bathroom fan with a Fantastic Fan.
