Low-Profile Housing for Walls and Smaller Ceiling Cavities
Do you have 2" x 4" 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 4" joists or larger this low-profile fan doesn't sacrifice performance for size. This ventallation fan utilizes a 3" duct for those areas where a smaller duct is necessary.
So Quiet You Might Not Know It's On
This WhisperFit 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. The 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) Panasonic 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.

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 efficient cool running motors it does not create excessive heat-a common problem with some competitors' fans. Loose fill or batt insulation can be placed directly over the fan housing to prevent heat from escaping.
