Is anyone familiar with this product/strategy? We are working on a custom home in Louisiana and are interested in utilizing it. We discussed a make-up air for the range hood when the fireplace damper is open, and we’re thinking that this might be a good solution. I’d appreciate your feedback. Thanks!

Thanks again
Heather,
I have never installed this unit, but I am familiar with the concept. Powered makeup air appliances like this one from Fantech are required by code whenever a large range hood exhaust fan is installed. For more information, see Makeup Air for Range Hoods.
Thanks, Martin!
