Product Description
Product Description
The Panasonic FV-08WQ1 WhisperWall Bathroom Fan is designed for through-the-wall mounting to provide ventilation in rooms where a mounted ceiling fan is unavailable. It comes with a steel exterior hood with a back-draft damper. This ventilation fan has a totally enclosed condenser motor designed for extended service life with reduced energy consumption. The electrical configuration of the motor allows it to operate at lower temperatures, increasing the life of the fan motor and bearings. The motor has a large, double suction blower wheel that draws air in from both sides to allow more area for the air to enter the wheel and for quieter clean air movement. The WhisperWall Bathroom Fan gives you continuous, trouble-free operation for many years thanks to its high-quality components and permanently lubricated motor, wearing at a slower pace. The ventilation fan housing is made of heavy-gauge zinc galvanized steel and is painted to protect it from rust. This fan is Energy Star qualified with a 0.8 sone level and rated 70 cubic feet per minute. The fan’s grille is easily detachable from the main unit for convenient maintenance.
Achieve quality air and energy efficiency with whisper-quiet sound levels for your spaces with the Panasonic FV-08WQ1 WhisperWall Bathroom Fan.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Recently I tore down some plaster-and-lath walls and I think this may have caused the fan to fail. I tried to clean it out but it was sluggish and never ran quietly again. I should have unplugged the unit and taken it out of the wall to protect it from plaster grit.
I ordered the same model number, hoping I can just swap out the innards and it will fit without having to re-do the duct or flapper etc. I will update my review after the new one is installed.
Update:
So the Amazon delivery driver called me FROM MY HOUSE because he was hesitant to leave a big box on my porch. he walked around to the side entrance and carried it up steep stairs to the back deck. So that was amazing customer service. The manufacturer's box was inside of a larger Amazon box with packing materials. Not a single mark on anything.
I took the cover and the inner motorized fan unit out of my old duct and plugged the new ones right in. flipped the switch and it was like brand new. I'll save the other parts incase something needs to be replaced. If I could give 10 STARS I would.
After reading the reviews I decided to purchase this fan for an upstairs bedroom with a vaulted ceiling. As you can imagine, it can get pretty hot up there and with little or no cross ventilation, I wanted an fan just to push out the trapped heated air the collects in that room.
Pros: Installs easy, Quiet enough (you can hear it if you listen for it, but it is quiet enough not to have it bother you unless you are hyper sensitive). That said, the fan is MUCH MUCH more quiter then your average bathroom fan. Since I have just installed it before the heat of the summer, I will defer it's performance for a more detailed review at a later time.
However, just using it in a short amount of time (1 hr) we did notice a difference as that particular room was as cool as the other rooms that were upstairs - which has never been the case! So it seems to work well. I paired it up with a switch that has a timer function, so it should be good to go for the summer.
Cons: As other reviews have indicated, there are compliance stickers on the bottom of the grill. That said, it doesn't bother me however, I will "flip" the grill upsidedown so that they are not seen. The unit protrudes from the wall more than I would like, but I'm being a bit picky here. It's a bit pricey for sure, but as stated before, it's pretty quiet. So, other than cost, there really are no cons for the product itself.
I will update this review as we get a little deeper into the summer, but so far so good.

I cut a hole about 8" in diameter from the inside wall to the outside wall with a reciprocating saw, used a oscillating saw for the finer trimming, and the fan was very easy to install after the hole has been cut.
Instead of having it wired to a wall switch, I modified it and installed a pullstring switch.
It works extremely well and is just as quiet as expected.
I had one problem. I had it powered through a GFCI outlet and the fan kept tripping it when turned off (the fan becomes a generator when still spinning after the power is cut, tripping the GFCI). This was fixed by wiring it to the feed wire.
This fan was not cheap, but it saved my a lot of hassle by going straight through the wall with no extra venting. The outside hood was bigger than expected so make sure you have plenty of room. I also installed some screen-door mesh inside the grill to make sure wasps couldn't get in.
All in all, fantastic product. Five star!!!
Recived quickly and it works as advertised. Don't hasitate to order. Good quality product made in Japan.
