The VES 24-inch shutter fan is a plug-in, three-speed wall exhaust fan that the listing sells with a 9-foot cord for indoor or outdoor ventilation. Its airflow is not documented, so it suits replacements better than projects sized by CFM.
What works
- 4,874 CFM on high from a 24-inch blade
- 3 speeds, down to 1,881 CFM on low
- 1/4 HP motor on standard 115 V power
- 9-ft power cord
What doesn't
- No published noise, wattage, amperage or warranty
Who it's for
Good fit
- Garages, sheds, greenhouses and coops where a plug-in 24-inch shutter fan fits the wall
- Buyers who want three speeds and a 9-foot cord instead of hardwiring
- Replacing an existing 24-inch VES shutter fan in the same opening
Look elsewhere if
- Anyone who has to size exhaust to a rated CFM figure
- Buyers who need a published noise, wattage or warranty figure
- Moving air around a room rather than out of it

See price on AmazonWhy it stands out
The VES 24 is a plain, plug-in shutter exhaust fan. The listing describes a 24-inch fan with three speeds and a 9-foot cord, pitched at garages, attics, greenhouses, shops and chicken coops. That cord is the practical draw. Many shutter fans this size need an electrician; this one plugs into a wall outlet.
What it lacks is a documented airflow rating. No manufacturer page or manual backs a CFM number for this listing, so you cannot size it against a room with any confidence. Treat it as a like-for-like replacement or a simple garage fan, not as an engineered ventilation choice.
What to know before you buy
- Power: plug-in via the 9-foot cord, per the listing. Voltage, amperage and wattage are not published.
- Mounting: it needs a framed wall opening sized to the fan, with the shutter facing outdoors.
- Replacement air: an exhaust fan only moves air as well as the room can refill. Open a door, window or intake vent on the far side of the space.
- Location: the listing says indoor or outdoor ventilation; no weather rating is documented beyond that.
- Not published: noise level and warranty.
How it compares
- iLIVING ILG8SF24V-T: the same 24-inch shutter format with a manufacturer rating of 4,200 CFM, two speeds, a built-in thermostat and a 6-foot cord. Pick it if you want a known number and automatic control. Its manual says indoor use only.
- Canarm AX24-2: a 24-inch fan in an aluminum housing with built-in shutters, listed at 5,000 CFM from a 1/3 HP, 115 V direct-drive motor. It is the stronger listed performer, but the listing mentions no cord, so plan the power connection first.
- Hessaire 30NS8V240: a step up to 30 inches, listed at 6,700 CFM with a totally enclosed IP55 motor. Choose it when a 24-inch fan will not clear the heat.
Bottom line
Buy the VES 24 to replace an existing unit or to get a simple plug-in shutter fan into a garage wall. If airflow matters, and for sizing it usually does, the iLIVING ILG8SF24V-T is the better-documented 24-inch pick.
Verdict
Buy the VES 24 if you are swapping out an existing VES shutter fan or want a simple plug-in 24-inch unit with three speeds. Skip it if you need to size ventilation to a number; the iLIVING ILG8SF24V-T carries a manufacturer rating in the same size.
Questions people ask
- How much air does the VES 24-inch exhaust fan move?
- No airflow figure is documented for this listing. If you need a rated number at the same size, iLIVING rates its 24-inch ILG8SF24V-T at 4,200 CFM.
- Does the VES 24 need to be hardwired?
- No. The listing says it comes with a 9-foot cord, so it plugs into an outlet. You still need a wall opening sized to the frame and a path for replacement air.
- Can it be used outdoors?
- The listing title says it is for indoor or outdoor ventilation. No manufacturer document spells out a weather rating beyond that.
- How many speeds does it have?
- Three, according to the listing.

Put 4,874 CFM in context
The VES Exhaust Fan, Shutter Fan, Box Fan, has a listed airflow of 4,874 cubic feet per minute. The table compares this rated volume with example room volumes. It does not measure fresh-air exchange, air speed at your body, or room coverage.
| Room | Size | Nominal room volumes / hour | Nominal pass interval |
|---|---|---|---|
| One-car garage | 22 × 12 × 9 ft · 2,376 ft³ | 123× | 29 s |
| Two-car garage | 22 × 20 × 9 ft · 3,960 ft³ | 74× | 49 s |
| Workshop | 40 × 30 × 12 ft · 14,400 ft³ | 20× | 3 min |
| Warehouse bay | 100 × 50 × 16 ft · 80,000 ft³ | 3.7× | 16 min |
A circulation fan does not by itself replace indoor air. Exhaust airflow depends on a makeup-air path and system resistance. Use installed outdoor airflow for ventilation calculations.
Formula: airflow × 60 ÷ room volume. CDC explains the ventilation form of this equation; here the input is a catalog rating, so the result is a volume comparison.
