*by U***. on Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2017*

This is a review for the Panasonic FV-08VQ5 WhisperCeiling 80 CFM Fan which replaced a noisy cheap build contractor grade Broan 668 fan.The Broan 668 fan has a 7 ½ by 7 ¼ opening so we had to cut the hole in the ceiling larger after the old Broan 668 was removed.Install really required access from the attic and from below. Here are the steps:• Climbed up to the attic and removed 1 ½ inch of blown in isolation material around the Fan we want to replace. That was the part of the job which was not pleasant at all. Make sure to wear a mask, goggles and long sleeves and gloves.• Removed from below the Broan 668 cover and motor assembly.• Used Panasonic provided template to mark the new larger size of the opening and enlarged opening from down in the bathroom.• Took the metal slider for the suspension bracket off, because it is not possible in a tight fit to push the new box into the opening. Had also to remove as it seems to be designed that way the front part (Shinny metal) of the Air outlet and power connector.• Placed the front part I removed first in the opening so that the duct connector is in place, then pushed the black box into the opening and slide it right the way into the other front part. Double checked and screwed in again the screw to have ground and to secure the front part to housing.• Next screwed 2 long screws in to wood joint and used special screws for drywall to secure box to sheetrock. Not a strong hold, so I went up to Attic and placed two short 2x4 around the box and then used from down below longer screws to go through sheetrock into the 2x4, Installed the 2x4 with silicon caulk and sealed also the box to the sheetrock with silicon to have an airtight setup• Went back up into attic and connected back the bracket slider and had to cut one of the brackets to be able to push it into the slider and have enough room on the other side to push the second bracket slider in.• Secured bracket to both Joists with 4 wood screws• Connected the power to the fan. After the small round metal was removed with a screw driver I pushed a round conduit connector in the whole so that I have no sharp edge. Connected power and closed the box again. That was somehow difficult doing it from the Attic while kneeing on a joist. Recommend the next time to install first a 3 feed power cable and use an external junction box. Much easier to deal with.• Next connected 4incj duct and run it to the ceiling outlet where I had to replace the 3inch Y-diverter for a 4inch Y-diverter as now the duct used is larger. Used metallic Duct tape which melts together when in contact to get a real nice seal. Make sure that you remove the tape inside the fan outlet which keeps the backdraft damper in place during transport. If you forget that you have to undo your duct connection only to remove the tape. Happened to me, so pay attention to the details.• Test the fan from down below and it worked, very silent and very efficient.• Replaced then next the switch with an Enelites HET06A-R In-wall Countdown timer.Additional parts we needed:• Plastic round conduit connector to have no sharp edges at power junction box of the fan.• 8 foot 4 inch flex line (special for our install where we had to replace old 3 inch line.Purchased at Home Depot (look a dryer vent area not duct work).• Metallic Duc-tape• 4 inch Y-divider to have 3inch and 4 inch connector. (special for our install)• 2 1foot long 2x4 wood pieces• Silicon caulk• 16 long wood screwsOverall Install time:Because of required access to attic and removing isolation material it took over all 3 hours with several trips up and down to the attic.It took then another hour to clean up the mess of the isolation material I had in the bathroom and exit of the Attic and there is no good way to avoid that.Conclusion:It is worth to do this update on a fan in small bath room with no windows and a lots of moisture buildup as this fan will run a lot.  It is very quiet and very efficient.However the two other small bathroom fans I will not use this fan model as I will need something I really can do from down below as attic access is questionable for the other fans. Looking here to get a Small Delta BreezSlim SLM50 and modify from down below the Broam box to receive the inside of the Delta BreezSlim fan. Already tested that in the Garage with an old box.

    Great fan, installation can be a challenge
  

*by A***L on Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2017*

This fan seems to perform very well, as most other reviews say. I deduct one star because the listing should make it clearer it's meant for new construction, not a finished bathroom. The instructions clearly tell you to finish the ceiling work after installation--in other words, it's meant to be put in when you have just the bare joists, not trying to cut a hole through the ceiling. I was putting this into a century-old house, with joists at charmingly different widths and various surprises in the attic, so it was an adventure. Of the three exhaust fans I've installed (the others were in 60-year old houses), this was by far the hardest. In some houses, it can be an easy job, and in new construction this would be a breeze to put in, but you will want to check out your bathroom situation carefully before getting this one.. Fan is very quiet--people who have heard it have been surprised how quiet it is, and it clears our small bathroom very well (we got the 80 CFM model).

    Great fan in general, but ... if you have a small house, you NEED this
  

*by T***S on Reviewed in the United States on December 14, 2017*

8 Starts??? Worth the extra money!!! Must have for a small house!!! I can't hear it, and, the house is sealed up fairly well, but when the door is shut and the fan is on you can feel the air coming from under the door but it is amazingly quiet, got this with "Enerlites HET06A 1-5-10-15-20-30 Minutes Preset In-Wall Countdown Timer Switch" and it's awesome!!!  Side note - small house - inherited some stomach troubles that I'm finally sorting out but with this fan I can use the bathroom in the middle of the night without waking up the rest of the family like I did with our old annoying loud fan running.  So I feel better and the family sleeps better
