  • Easy install with proper tools.
The product itself works great. It’s very quiet but when set to 110CFM it moves a good amount of air, enough to suck up cardboard and hold it over the grate. The install——- Make sure you have the proper tools beforehand. It’s a great idea to move everything that you don’t want drywall dust or attic insulation on out of the bathroom. Drywall saw (keyhole saw) Pencil to mark the ceiling Tape measure (if not replacing a smaller fart fan) Ladder or step stool Drill motor or an impact with a Phillips tip bit Vacuum to clean up A mask if you don’t want to breathe in the dust/insulation dust. The install was very easy, but messy. Spent more time cleaning up after removing the old fan and installing the new one. Directions are straight forward and easy to understand. A note, once installed and cleaned up, I fired it up and heard no noise at all for about 15-20 seconds. It just takes time to spin up to speed. Once it’s full speed it’s still very quiet but like I said, strong enough to hold cardboard up on the grill. Wonderful replacement for our old exhaust fan. ... show more

  • Super quiet compared to our old fan
Easy for the electrician to install. I might have been able to do it, but he was already doing new circuits for the spa tub. The fan stored ramps up slowly and is very quiet even when running at full speed. Removes humidity like it’s supposed to. Very happy with the new fan.

  • Very quiet, adjustable installation bracket.
Replaced an original contractor-grade fan in the bathroom. Well-made, easy installation of the fan unit if you have attic access. All of these companies claim you don't need attic access and I guess that's technically true but it is much, much easier if you do. Hardest part was replacing the old 3" duct with newer 4" insulated ducting. That was definitely a two person job. Very quiet overall, three speed settings are nice, silent/slow startup takes about fifteen seconds - no reason for that "feature." ... show more

  • Fan is quiet and strong
I will start by saying that this fan deserves a 5 star rating, but I am starting with a 4 star because am always hesitant to give it 5. The fan we installed on a second floor with duct of about 6 feet to the ceiling and not too many curves, but the fan works amazingly, I have a small bathroom maybe 10X7 (I'll post the exact once I measure) and I used to shower and it would fog the mirror and the walls would be very sweaty, with this update the improvement is amazing, no fog and the bathroom stays fresh, can't really rave much more than that but the am a fan of this fan :p I set it to 110CFM and you can feel pooling air from underneath the door and the small window that we left there. I installed the fan between the shower and the sync, so not right on top of the shower but as close as possible to it. The installation is straight forward but very close to amazing, I paired it with the Leviton DHD05 and the fan kicks in automatically in NY, haven't seen during the summer if I need to adjust the humidity sensor but for December 2023 it's doing great. ... show more

  • Purrs like a kitten.
