Ventilation fan, Panasonic Whisper Ceiling 110 CFM (FV-11VQ3) or NuTone 110 CFM Ultra Silent Energy Star?
Question : Ventilation fan, Panasonic Whisper Ceiling 110 CFM (FV-11VQ3) or NuTone 110 CFM Ultra Silent Energy Star?
My architect choose Nutone for our house b/c it looks clean white and it’s venting through the side. But people are telling me that Panasonic is the best one in market.
Pricewise they are about the same and you can get them cheap at wwww.westsidewholesales.com And if you are in L.A. area, you can do the store pick up.
Panasonia Whisper 110CFM $ 98
Nutone 110CFM $ 107
Thank you for your opinions!
Noise level:
Panasonia = 0.8 sones
Nutone = 0.9 sones

what I would check out, now you know they are equal in CFM… is the noise rating (quiet)… you might find this at home depot… they usually have a display with that info or one of their websites… cause quiet is nice!!!
i work for company who sells Broan fans (same company as Nutone) typically on bathroom fans the motor is going to die and need replacing, i get people coming in all the time trying to replace just the motor…..obviously easier than replacing the whole fan housing…. wherever you decide to buy it, go for the one that has replacement parts available… that would save you time in the future for any maintenance needs on it
