Panasonic fv-0511vfl1 Ventilation Fan 50 80 110 Cfm Led

Product Description

The PANASONIC fv-0511vfl1 is a multi-speed ceiling-mounted ventilation fan with integrated dimmable LED lighting and a separate LED nightlight, designed for residential bathroom and utility space applications. The unit is powered by a built-in ECM (DC) motor with Smartflow Technology, which automatically maintains target airflow performance regardless of static pressure variations in the duct run. A Pick-A-Flow selector switch lets the installer choose between 50, 80, or 110 CFM without any additional components. The primary light source is a 10-watt dimmable LED chip panel, and a sub-1-watt LED nightlight is included and must be wired on its own circuit.

This fan is suited for retrofit installations in residential bathrooms, powder rooms, and similar spaces where an existing ceiling fan opening can accept a new unit. The single-hinged Flex-Z Fast bracket with pre-installed alignment guides and a temporary clip simplifies ceiling rough-in work, particularly in retrofit scenarios where attic access is limited. The fv-0511vfl1 can be applied in projects requiring compliance with ASHRAE 62.2, LEED, IAP, and California Title 24 ventilation standards, making it a practical choice for green building or code-driven remodel work.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. Power to the circuit must be shut off at the breaker before beginning any wiring work. Note that the nightlight requires a separate wiring connection from the main fan and light circuits. Confirm duct sizing and routing meet local mechanical code requirements before securing the unit.
