ceiling heat

9 years ago

I have a bathroom ceiling fan now. Looking for recommendations on best method to use the existing hole and venting in the bathroom ceiling to install a fan, light and heating device. Or just a fan and heating device. What products are folks using now?

Lots of people post that they are using and happy with Whisper Warm from Panasonic. It comes with fan and heater or fan/heater/light combo. Has good ratings, it seems. http://www.homedepot.com/p/Panasonic-WhisperWarm-110-CFM-Ceiling-Exhaust-Bath-Fan-with-Light-and-Heater-FV-11VHL2/203762030

I have two of the Panasonic units, one installed about five years ago and the other installed about 18 months ago. We have been very happy with how they work. Most people find it hard to believe they are 110 cfm rated units, since they are very quiet.

I picked out the Panasonic units after reading all the bad reviews for Broan, Nutone, and most of the other brands found in the home stores. However, I then got the Panasonic from Home Depot as a special order, since they had a good price and offered free shipping.
