PanasonicWhisperGreen Select Ceiling Mount Exhaust Fan with LED Light, Customizable, 110-130-150 CFM, FV-1115VKL2

This is a very powerful fan that doesn't make much noise. Was installed in 30 minutes with preparation. One note, the fan doesn't instantly go to full speed but it winds up to speed over 20 seconds. This is not a bad thing but it surprised me when first using it. Our bathroom was always steamed up after a shower. Now, there is no steam collecting. The light is also bright and a natural spectrum of light.

I haven't completed the electrical for my bathroom project so this review only addresses the fan installation. I'll follow up with a review of how the fan performs after I turn on the juice. The fan comes with a nice bracket which expanded perfectly to fit between the 24"-spaced trusses above my bathroom. The side of the fan with the electrical and exhaust fitting slides off making it easier to affix wires and ductwork. Wires are clearly labeled in the connection box. The rest of the fan assembly is then slid up into the ceiling. The instructions call for three switches to control the fan, fan light and fan nightlight individually. A fourth switch between the two red leads is required if the multi-speed option is installed. The instructions aren't clear about what to do with the two red wires if the option isn't installed (one star deducted). The switch to control which of three fan speeds to use is easily accessed by removing the fan grill.I'll follow up with a second review covering fan performance when my electrical is completed.UPDATE! - Finally finished our bathroom reno after 6 months - tile guy was an artist but sloooow. The fan is great. Much quieter than the garbage Nutone fans in other bathrooms and way more CFM air movement. The fan does take 15 seconds or so to ramp up to speed when it's turned on. Clears out our 13' by 13' bathroom without any moisture accumulating on the walls or ceiling.

Very quiet very powerful.I did not see motion detection. Work yet. But otherwise highly recommend it

Replaced two 20+ year old exhaust fans in my house with this model (one lighted, one not). Both went in in less than one hour. The retrofit bracket is great, and installs quickly with just a screw gun. Instructions are a little convoluted, but are understandable if you take a few minutes to read them and follow along with the fan unit on a tabletop before trying to install it. My one criticism of the documentation is that one set did not warn you that the fan takes 8-10 seconds to turn on after you flip the switch, which led me to some tense moments testing the first one... LOLAs far as performance, when running at 150 CFM through a 6-inch duct vented through a roof cap, the mirrors in my bathrooms (One ~1,000 cubic ft volume, the other ~400 cu. ft.) never steam up now no matter how hot or long the shower. These units will definitely mitigate our long-standing moisture problems in both bathrooms caused by the cheap builder grade fans that were there before.They are more expensive than others of similar performance, but completely worth the money.

Great product, super quite, easy to install even if you’re replacing an existing fan. The duct end slides up and off for easy install. LED light is much brighter then I expected out of such a small light. Fan has a slow start function so it takes about 15-seconds to get to full speed. This through me for a loop at first when I was testing install.

Panasonic has great fans and they keep getting better. easy template, easy install, very quiet. It has plug in features that make it easy for you to customize the fan to your needs. Also it's possible to have 4 switches to this unit so you may need to expand the number of switches on the wall. Only difficult feature is the 6 inch exhaust. to get the pipe needed but proper roof vents are a bit harder. Still a 5 star product.

I'm a novice and I'm redoing my master bath. If you have a lot of space above the fan where you're installing it you'll be OK. I didn't have much room to work in and this thing is huge. It's like twice the size of the fan I was replacing. It's got a 6" exhaust and you probably have a 4". The instructions are also written by someone who doesn't speak English as a first language. As long as you take this into consideration you'll be fine. It's a nice fan once it's installed.

I love Panasonic exhaust fans... this one us very quiet using the 6" round metal ducting, like the automatic nigh light and motion sensor option that turns itself on when you are near the space. This is an expensive unit but worth it given what it does and does so well. Jeff / JS Construction 2 LLC / Miami, FL
