WhisperWarm Ceiling Mount Bathroom Exhaust Fan with LED Light & Heater, 50-80-110 CFM, FV-0511VHL1

Ever since installing a Panasonic FV-11VHL2 in our master bathroom a few years ago, I wanted one for our other bathroom, as well. This FV-0511VHL1 is the new and improved replacement for the older model which is no longer available. This unit can be used in new construction and is designed in such a way that it can be easily installed in existing construction, as well, even without attic access from above. The collapsible mounting bracket, the electrical connections and vent connection can all be done through the 10-7/8" X 16-5/8" ceiling opening, before sliding the unit into place. Unit measures 7-1/2" high so it will fit in a 2X8 ceiling joist cavity. Insulation can be placed in direct contact with the unit. Grill cover size is 13-1/4" X 18-1/4". Can be connected to 6" or 4" duct. Fan can be set to 50, 80, or 110 CFM. Requires a dedicated 20A circuit. Although Vent and Heater can be run at the same time, I like to wire mine so as to not allow that. I do that by running the feed first to the timer, then to the common of a three-way switch. That way the position of the three-way switch determines whether Heat, or Vent mode is used when starting the timer. Love the amount of heat put out by this unit! The perfect answer for a chilly bathroom! (A little expensive, but well worth it, IMHO)

This fan is SO quiet! It really pulls the moisture out & keeps the mirror from fogging up. The heater works quickly to heat our medium-size bathroom, and the light is much brighter than other fans we've had. The price is much more than we've spent in the past, but I can already tell that the quality is much higher. Hopefully it will last longer than the other fans we've had.

This works and looks great! Blows hot heat. Nice and quiet

Exactly what we were looking for. Works great. Quiet and Puts out a nice amount of heat for a large bathroom.

Quite, efficient and heats very well. My handyman installed it but didn't know about the filter. Gradually the heater became less effective. I looked inside and found the filter. Once I cleaned it, it ran like new again. I would suggest checking it every month or so depending on use.

Panasonic bath fans are by far the best quality available. Extremely Quiet

We purchased 3 new Panasonic exhaust fans to replace our existing fans after a fire sprinkler burst and poured water through the original fans. When the new exhaust fan was first installed in our shower, our contractor thought it was broken because it made no sound. The light came on immediately, and after 20 seconds or so, the sound and heat came on. This is true for all of the quiet Panasonic fans we just bought. So, give it a minute. They work great.

Check right away that you received the right model. I received the one without a light and I did not have enough time to exchange it before the installation date. Other than that, it's a great fan, we now have two (one with and one without a light) and we love them.

Works well so far.

Best suited for a new build, definitely NOT for a reno. Electrician looked at unit and wiring diagram and informed us we'd need another breaker in our panel and new wiring throughout. It's also very large. Then, the seller refused to return it with no reason given. As it stands I'm out about $465 and I need to find a replacement in the middle of a major reno. FIND SOMETHING ELSE!
