The bottom portion of the Igloo 11 includes a series of ventilation holes that assist with drawing the appropriate amount of air circulation into the case. One unique feature included with the Igloo 11 is the integration of a mini fan controller. The fan controller is wired directly to the front intake fans and has a three position setting for low, medium and high.

Behind the ventilation holes are two 80mm front intake fans secured by a black removable air filter. The fan filter is a nice addition since it aids in keeping dust from entering inside the case and is completely machine washable.

The back portion of the BeanTech Igloo 11 Aluminum Case includes a standard PSU mount, I/O ATX back plate, expansion slots, and a single 80mm fan mount. While the left and right side panels are completely removable, the top panel has been riveted directly to the chassis. The 80mm fan mount sits behind a stamped grill that has been integrated into the case frame. Consumers who wish to maximize air flow can easily use any sort of rotary tool to remove the stamped grill. An ATX I/O back plate is provided which will fit most standard motherboards and includes all the necessary cut outs for serial, parallel, video, USB, mouse, keyboard, onboard LAN and integrated sound.
