The model you provided pictures of is from 2003 and is no longer available. To replace this fan with similar features and a roof top cover, I make a few recommendations.

First, the MaxxFan # MA00-07000K which has a powered vent opener, the fan is reversible, can operate by built in thermostat, and includes the dome topped vent cover that can be open while raining. (I know that some models have an automatic closure when it rains - but I worry about it not working one time.) Also, it has a remote control!

The Fan-Tastic Vent # FV803350 has a powered vent opener, the fan is reversible, can operate by built in thermostat, and automatically closes when it rains. I feel that this open top kind of vent moves more air, but has to be closed when raining unlike the above model. Does not have a remote.

For a basic ventalation choice consider the 4-speed, quiet, MaxxAir # MA00-04301M.
