I used this Ventamatic unit to replace a faulty thermostat in a different brand of fan. It works great; simple to wire, and has accurate temperature markings on the case.
As to the absence of the firestat mentioned by other reviewers, it's possible that they don't know exactly what a firestat is. It's actually a thermal fuse, and looks like a diode. If it gets too hot, the inside part melts which breaks the electrical connection. Mine has one.

Bought this to use with a fan that moves air away from our woodstove. It works as it should but it is not the most accurate thing in the world. It has a tendency to stick open much longer than temperature calls for. Decent product if you are OK with some inaccuracy.Best Deals on Ventamatic XXFIRESTAT 10-Amp Adjustable Thermostat with Firestat
The thermostat comes on at the set temperature, and turns off at the same temperature. What I really wanted was a thermostat that turned on at 10 to twenty degrees above the turn off temperature, and then turned off at the set temperature. This would be to insure that it was venting on a hot day and not on the cooler days when the temperature just nicks the set temperature.Anyway the aged fan that I hooked this up to died, so if I buy a new attic fan they all come with a new thermostat in the box...
