WE GOT GREEN: This Panasonic ceiling fan is SILENT and efficient!

Quick update on the Panasonic ceiling fan that we purchased a few weeks ago for our GetWithGreen remodel.

If you recall, we purchased the most efficient fan from ENERGY STAR list - the Panasonic WhisperGreen FV-08VKS1.  The fan was installed this week. 

You can adjust the CFM between 30-70 (easily).  What is amazing about this ventilation fan is that it is SILENT when running.  You cannot hear it at all!  We guarantee that your kids will forget to turn it off!   To counter this, we are going to install a motion sensor switch.  

If we had to purchase again we might consider the FV-08VKM1 with the built in motion sensor.   The FV-08VKM1 can be configured to to turn off anywhere between 30s-60min after motion is no longer detected.    

We purchased the Panasonic fan at Galaxy Lighting in San Jose, CA.  It cost us about $160 (tax included).  Definitely on the high-end, but then again you can tell this fan is quality.  Further, we were done with the loud inefficient cheaper fans out there.  )Btw, Kris at Galaxy Lighting is incredibly helpful, if you happen to visit them.)

Prior to our purchase we spoke directly with the Panasonic’s Public Relations Supervisor about the fan.  MeeJin Annan-Brady, got back to us within 30 minutes, and helped answer some questions before GetWithGreen made the plunge. 

We are completely satisfied with this ceiling fan purchase!  Two Green Thumbs up!
