(More customer reviews)Panasonic FV30VQ3 Ceiling Fan
I installed two of these fans near the peak of a cathedral ceiling in a new "sunroom", to exhaust hot air on summer days. See Customer Images of the roughed-in installation. Each fan is on a timer, so one or both fans can be used. A third fan was installed in a new storage room also used for painting and chemical cleaning.
The only issue - the fan frame's actual height is 9 3/8", while the 2x10's in that storage room ceiling are only 9 1/4", so some shimming was necessary. Other than that, they are pretty easy to install in NEW construction. To install in existing construction would be significantly more difficult, as you would have to get a switched 14/2 NM cable to the fan's junction box AND connect the fan's 6" steel output pipe to a 6" duct that exhausts the air to the outside.
The best thing about these fans is they are not loud. No one makes a silent fan that moves 300 CFM, but the mild sound of whooshing air with this model is not objectionable. In a house we remodeled last year, I installed a Broan model 504 10" Vertical Discharge Fan rated for sound at 6 sones, and it's way too noisy. I should have used one of these 2 sone Panasonic models.
The plastic grille easily attaches after the drywall is finished, and it looks great.
Highly recommended.

FV-30VQ3 WhisperCeilingTM 290 CFM Ceiling Mounted Fan So Quiet You Might Not Know it's OnThis WhisperCeilingTM model features a totally enclosed condenser motor and a large, double suction blower wheel to quietly move air. A small wheel turning very fast will create more noise than a large wheel turning more slowly for a given airflow. Our fan uses a wide blower wheel that moves a large amount of air at reduced RPMs. The blower wheel is also designed to draw air in from both sides, which helps keep the noise down, as there is more area for the air to enter the wheel. In fact, it is quiet enough that you might not even know it's on.
