Product guides and documents
Product Description
Panasonic designs DC ceiling exhaust fans that not only produce maximum airflow, but also remove air impurities from your home while operating at whisper-quiet audio levels. This Panasonic FV-0511VQ1 WhisperCeiling DC bathroom fan comes from a line of time-tested and customer approved quiet, powerful and energy efficient ventilation fans. This precision spot ventilation solution improves IAQ by removing moist, polluted air from your bathroom, laundry room, sun room, basement or garage.
When Panasonic FV-0511VQ1 WhisperCeiling DC Fan senses static pressure, its speed is automatically increased to ensure optimal CFM output. This feature provides peace of mind, as the installer doesn’t have to worry about compromising the fan’s performance, even with a complicated duct run. The built-in Pick-A-Flow speed selector provides the unique ability to select your desired airflow (50-80-110 CFM) with the flip of a switch. The Flex-Z Fast installation bracket with articulating joints is ideal for positioning the fan exactly where you want it, in old or new construction. An integrated dual 4-inch or 6-inch duct adapter gives greater flexibility in duct layout and design.
Panasonic ventilation fans are Energy Star certified. Panasonic fans use less energy, move larger volumes of air and run cooler, which means they last longer. The motors are equipped with a thermal-cutoff fuse, greatly reducing the likelihood of overheating and motor failure. Achieve quality air and energy efficiency with whisper-quiet sound levels for your spaces with Panasonic FV-0511VQ1 WhisperCeiling DC Fan.

I installed this in my bathroom because the bathroom fan that came with the house was the cheap builder's-grade fan. It was loud and didn't move much air. After each shower, the mirror was dripping wet and the bathroom was full of steam. After installing this, the bathroom air is clear of steam after a shower. The mirror fogs up, but not nearly as bad as before and it clears really quickly after I get out of the shower. Good choice! Installation wasn't fun because I got up in the attic with all of the blown in insulation so I could install a larger diameter exhaust st run and the fan was difficult to get to in my case. Not the fan's fault. I could have installed it completely from below if I had bigger exhaust piping already hooked up.
I bought this model because my cheap-o builder spared all expense and put in a 3" duct. That duct limits the airflow so that the even cheaper fan that they put in could not keep up with the steam from my wife's hot showers so the mirrors fogged up all the time. I was concerned that even with a better fan the 3" duct would still keep the air flow down and it might even make a quiet fan noisy due to the restriction, but my concerns were alleviated with this new fan. I set it on the lowest of the two speeds and it works great in our 8'x9' bathroom! The speed switch is readily accessible if I want to test the higher speed later, but so far I have no need to do so.
Installation was not simple, but it was not difficult either. I'm just a homeowner who does most of the repairs and updates to the house, but I'm no professional, yet I was able to get this installed and working within a couple of hours.
Bottom line, if you have the coin to spare, you'll be happy with this fan.
Written instructions don't match the pictures. Neither match what their official video says to do. Neither tell you if it's from the attic side or the ceiling side. It matters! What a joke..
Also, if you're retrofitting. You might as well replace the ducting to be insulated. So it's a little more work than the 5 minute installation videos tell you it is.
But dang, it's quiet and really sucks in air.
The product is great. No forgiveness in returns tho.

On full 110 or 120 cfm, and whisper quiet. Works beautifully, and going to repeat the purchase for our other bathrooms.
This one is adjustable for the CFM depending on your room size which is a nice touch.
The DC does cause the fan to have a slight delay starting up once you flip the switch and it takes apex 10 seconds to get to speed ... but otherwise flawless operation once installed.
Whisper quiet in operation.
Just moved into a new home and will be replacing at least 2 of the Broan econo bathroom fans with Panasonics in the next few months ... miss the silence as one sounds like it is trying to take off.
Decent price, quick arrival, for a quality product.
