NuTone White 110 CFM 4" Ducting Bathroom Exhaust Fan Review

NuTone White 110 CFM 4 Ducting Bathroom Exhaust Fan
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is a great fan. At 1.5 sones, it is nicely quiet but actually moves the air in the room at the rate it is reported to. I installed this unit in a 300 cu. ft. bathroom and it clears all evidence of the smell following toilet use in 3 minutes flat. Additionally, it keeps the room free of steam build up during showers as well so no mold on the walls! When I flip the switch to turn it on, I am standing next to the entry door and I can feel the air being drawn into the room at the door's edge. Additionally, if I hold my hand in front of the light switch cover or outlet cover, I can feel air being drawn through those openings as well. That's right, even through the minor cracks at the sheetrock edges air is drawn in!!! And yet, it is very quiet. I am a builder and I recommend this fan all the time to many very pleased clients. One note, I usually try to vent this to the outside as directly as possible. Shorter vent runs nean more efficient operation. Also, smooth, ridgid vent lines will be slightly more efficient in allowing unfettered air movement than ribbed, flexible duct work.

Panasonic FV-11VQ5 WhisperCeiling 110 CFM Ceiling Mounted Fan Review

Panasonic FV-11VQ5 WhisperCeiling 110 CFM Ceiling Mounted Fan
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The Panasonic FV-11VQ5 is the newest release from Panasonic in the WhisperCeiling series of ventilation fans. Panasonic discontinued the .8 Sone, 110 CFM, FV-11VQ3 for this next-generation, enhanced version. It is essentially the same model with some minor variations, the most noticeable being a reduction in operational sound level from .8 Sone to .3 Sone. The power consumption between the two units has also been reduced from 30.7W to 21.1W (at .1 static pressure), which drops the Amperage from .26 to .18, making this unit more efficient.
The FV-11VQ5 is relatively large, but a fantastic performer for the money. The rough-in cut required to mount the unit is 10-1/2" x 10-1/2". The outside grill is 13" x 13". A cardboard template is supplied to assist in drawing the physical layout of the rough-in cut on the ceiling. This greatly enhanced the ease of installation. Opening the unit, there's little that needs to be done other than remove the tape from the internal assembly. The mounting rails and screws are included.
Aside from sizing and attaching the ventilation ductwork, all that's required is to mount the unit and wire it up. Wiring is as simple as attaching a white, black, and green wire to an existing AC line and ground source.
My wife and I installed this unit together in the attic within an hour. We had complications with the ductwork that vents out the roof not lining up, which required some custom cuts to complete a final mounting. This took about 30 minutes, but aside from this, it is a very simple ventilation fan to install.
Following the installation, I turned the breaker back on and had my wife do the honors with the wall switch. She pushed it and after a second looked at me with that look that says, "Uh oh... Something's wrong!" After a few seconds we heard the sound of air rushing, but no motor! Our old fan was a 4.5 Sone unit, which is very loud! This unit almost sounds like it's not even running. It's so quiet, what you hear most is air rushing through the vets.
To check that things were venting well, I took half a dozen match sticks and lit them about four feet below the unit and waited for the flame to work down the wood, then blew them out. Smoke spindled its way up and out of the vents. Next, I took a lighter and lit it just below the vent and moved it around the grill. I could see the flame being pulled in the direction of the vent opening. It indeed was working quite well.
Overall, we're very happy with this unit and would recommend it to anyone installing it in a residential home or small area. Those interested should realize this is a very quiet unit. Some people like a fan to block sounds that emanate from the bathroom so others can't hear any quiet noises. For those who would like this from a ventilation fan, this is not the fan for you. I'd suggest looking for a fan with a rating of approximately 2 Sones. Anything less than 1 Sone is really very quiet.
Panasonic makes very good quality fans with many offerings in their "Whisper" ventilation line. The FV-11VQ5 is a quality unit within the WhisperCeiling series. Prospective consumers should also consider Panasonic's WhisperFit, WhisperGreen, WhisperLite, WhisperValue, and WhisperWarm line of ventilation fans before making a final determination which is right for you.

Broan Broan Bath Fan Upgrade Kit Review

Broan Broan Bath Fan Upgrade Kit
Average Reviews:

I installed this and it was easy. It took less than half an hour.
I rate it so low because it did not improve on sound over the existing cheaper broan fan that came with my house. It was so noisy that you it fille dthe bathroom with fan noise, and you can hear it down the hall even with the door closed. There is no point in installing this upgrade as there was no benefit. I bought two. I am going to uninstall the one I put in, and get my money back on both.
Don't waste your time and save your money. This one turned out to be too good to be true.

Broan-NuTone 472 Transition Review

Broan-NuTone 472 Transition

Broan 472 Backdraft Damper/Reducer
This 10" to 8" duct reducer comes with spring-loaded dual-dampers on the 8" end. I installed it on top of a Broan 10" Vertical Discharge Fan, and was disappointed in the fan's performance. When I held a hand near the fan's intake in the kitchen ceiling, some air was actually being blown down, when it was supposed to be sucked upward. Before completing connection of the damper/reducer to a roof cap via duct-work, I went into the attic to check it out from the top. Some air came through, but the problem was obvious -- the dampers on the Broan 472 were only going up about 25 degrees. When I lifted the dampers all the way up by hand, air output soared.
A spring forces the dampers closed when the fan is off. Holding the damper down that way reduces rattling in high-winds and keeps the outside air from coming in, but it also cripples a small fan's performance. To fix this, I removed the spring with wire cutters, and installed a screw at the top of the reducer on each side, at the 85 degree point, to stop the dampers from going past mid-way. With this screw-stop approach and no spring, gravity keeps the dampers down when the fan is off, and the fan's output is fine with a small fan, since the air doesn't have to push against a too-strong spring.
The spring-loaded damper approach should work OK as it comes from the factory if the unit is installed horizontally; but it doesn't work acceptably in the vertical position (with a small fan). Luckily, there's an easy fix.
The metal-work aspect of this product is excellent.

I purchased this fan/light combination for a bathroom remodel. It is fairly quiet, not silent but definitely not annoying. My contractor, however, broke the light bulb that it came with, and I spent 2 months looking for a replacement. Its a special bulb, requiring a 4 pin connection. The only 4-pin bulbs that are commonly available are shaped wrong for this fixture. The only source I could find was to order the replacement from Nu Tone. At $20 per bulb, that hurts! It is CFL, so should last, but ...
Bottom line: calculate in bulb replacement costs. Its a quality product (my electrician was very impressed with it), the ONLY problem is bulb replacement.

The motor came in quickly via USPS. It looks very similar to the one I was trying to replace in my bathroom fan, but oddly, the hardware seemed to be on the opposite side of where it was supposed to be.
After some research on the internet, I found out that this particular motor was reversible. After a couple tries, I managed to reverse the hardware so that I could attach the motor for a good fit into my ceiling assembly. The reversal process just required to remove two long screws, for which I needed to use torx screwdrivers, revert the bracket supporting the motor axle, re-tighten the screws et voila...
I wasn't too sure if the motor was going to turn in the correct direction after the modification, but it did. A simple tissue placed below the aspiration grid was quickly sucked towards the plate confirming proper installation.

Broan QTR080 Ultra Silent Bath Fan, 1.0-Sones 80 CFM Review

Broan QTR080 Ultra Silent Bath Fan, 1.0-Sones 80 CFM
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
We installed this fan in our upstairs bathroom. We tested it when we first got it fixed to the ceiling joists and wired. It was very quiet. So nice. But then we attached the vent pipe and piped it out the side of the house. It is only a six foot run, one 45 degree turn and one 90. Suddenly the fan rattled and groaned as if it were 30 years old. We ended up taking out the internal flap and are trusting the wimpy little external vent flaps to stop back drafts in the winter. That helped the noise. But it is still disappointingly fragile sounding with some rattles and speed variations. Two stars.

Broan 676 110-CFM 4.0-Sones Ceiling Mount Ventilation Fan Review

Broan 676 110-CFM 4.0-Sones Ceiling Mount Ventilation Fan
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought this to replace an old fan that the builders had installed (my old one was only rated at 50cfm). I needed a new one because I was getting condensation on the bathroom walls since the old one was not moving enough air. I was able to install this in about 20 minutes from below and it works great. Perfect sound level to wash out any unwanted bathroom noises but not to loud so it's not annoying. It certianly moves a lot more air than the old fan. I liked this fan so much I bought another one and installed it in my other bathroom. Don't forget to insulate the cracks between the drywall and fan fixture to eliminate heat loss and help secure the fan (which helps reduce movement/noise). I used spray foam which worked great. I let it dry over night and then used a razor to scrape it flat and neat. Also, to make sure the bathroom fan acutally has air to move there must be a gap on the bottom of the bathroom door so the fan can pull air from outside the bathroom under the door and circulate the bathroom air outside. I cut the door so I have approx 1 inch gap from the bottom of the door to the tile floor (this also helps so the door doesn't drag or catch on any bathroom rugs). Once I cut the door and reinstalled it the fan actually got even quieter because it wasn't trying to work so hard to pull air. If you install a fan in a room with no means of "breathing" the fan can not pull air correctly and the motor will heat up and die very quickly.
