WhisperFit-Lite 80 CFM Exhaust Fan

Low-Profile Housing for Smaller Ceiling Cavities
Do you have 2" x 6" joists in your ceiling? Are you having trouble finding a ventilating fan that will fit in this small cavity? Well, this model was made just for you. Designed to fit 2" x 6" joists or larger, this low-profile fan doesn't sacrifice performance for size. An optional 3" duct adaptor is also included for those areas where a smaller duct is necessary.

Add Some Overhead Light to Your Room
This unit not only ventilates the air in your room, but provides overhead lighting as well. Two 18-watt compact fluorescent lamps provide plenty of overhead lighting while the convenient, 4-watt nightlight will help you find your way through the room in the dark.

So Quiet You Might Not Know it's On
This WhisperFit-Lite(tm) fan 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.

Continuous, Trouble-free Operation for Many Years
This fan is designed to give you continuous, trouble-free operation for many years thanks in part to its high-quality components and permanently lubricated motors which wear at a slower pace. Also, since heat is always detrimental to motor life (the cooler the environment, the longer the motor will last), we designed the electrical configuration of this model's condenser motor to allow it to operate at lower temperatures, increasing the life of the motor and bearings. And, the fan housing is made of heavy-gauge zinc galvanized steel and painted to protect it from rust.

User-Friendly Installation
Detachable adaptors, firmly secured duct ends, adjustable mounting brackets (up to 26"), fan/motor units that detach easily from the housing and uncomplicated wiring all lend themselves to user-friendly installation. This model also features a double-hanger bar system for ideal positioning.

Energy Star(R) Qualified for Energy Savings
Energy Star qualified products feature super-quiet operation and high CFM-to-Watt efficiency. The Energy Star program was created to help consumers identify products that can save them money and protect the environment by saving energy. As an Energy Star partner, all our fans are Energy Star qualified and labeled accordingly.

Tired of Cold Air Coming Through Your Ventilation Fan?
This Panasonic fan has a built-in damper to prevent backdraft, which helps to prevent outside air from coming through the fan. Also, thanks to our efficient, cool running motors and fluorescent bulbs, it does not create excessive heat-a common problem with recessed lighting fixtures and some competitors' fan/light combinations. Loose fill or batt insulation can be placed directly over the fan housing to prevent heat from escaping.

Product Reviews

WhisperFit-Lite 80 CFM Exhaust Fan, 0.5 Sones, (4"duct) 4.5 5 2 2
High Quality/Good Value I purchased this to replace a standard Broan fan/light. I was impressed when I opened the box with the apparent quality and attention to detail. Just one of the little touches: the inner box has a cutout you can use to premeasure the cut opening (it suggests using it to seal the opening for painting). The fan is quiet (not silent as some people have said) and the light is soft but lights up my 55 SF bathroom nicely. I didn't install the included night light because I didn't want to run an extra wire and switch in existing conduit. I liked the fact that the lights are low-wattage CFLs so you can cover the top of the box with insulation without fear of a fire. Just one caveat: I needed to turn it around from its standard orientation because the existing ductwork favored it blowing in the opposite direction of a normal installation, and I didn't have the option of moving it to another rafter. I made it work by cutting the short support arm so I could install it backwards. You should scope out your own requirements if you're retrofitting to an existing installation. All in all., I'm very happy with the fixture and at the current sale price it's a no-brainer compared to the rest. November 28, 2010
Easy installation and good looking This fan was easy to install. It works well in the bathroom that I installed it in and pulls a good amount of air to the outside. Nice low profile box and is sealed fairly well. January 17, 2010
