Unique Ceiling Fans: Panasonic FV-11VF2 WhisperFit Low Profile Ceiling Mounted Ventilation Fan Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This fan is not especially quiet. It measures 64 decibels at one meter directly below it in a large bathroom (Radio Shack analog DB meter, A weighted). Not a a huge racket, but not a whisper either. It also doesn't seem to move much more air than my old fan, which had a smaller blower and 3" duct (this one has a clear 4" duct right through the roof - you'd think it would do better with a big duct like that). Overall it's very ordinary fan - certainly not worth the premium price.

It was a huge pain to install too, with a "snap off" vent assembly that didn't "snap" back on, and gibberish instructions. Just ignore the directions and do what makes sense and you'll get it in.

I got this from "The Price Pros", who apparently no longer sell it. Two other fans in the order had 3x5 oval vents instead of 3" round vent as claimed. Price Pros refused to give me a refund or exchange. I'm furious with Price Pros, Panasonic, and Amazon, which should not allow crooks like Price Pros to sell on Amazon's site. This was the only fan of the three which had a round vent (4", as advertised). The other two were a total waste of over $150. This is the last time I'll ever buy a construction items online. From now on it's local hardware stores.
