Homewerks 7140-50 Bathroom Fan Ceiling Mount Exhaust Ventilation, 1.0 Sones, 50 CFM, White

Excellent exhaust fan, very quiet and not too difficult to install. It’s exhaust port is located on one side so this can complicate the installation and depending on how your joists and existing piping are run it can make you need to cut a new hole in you ceiling so it lines up with your existing exhaust run.

For the price of this, you are getting a good quality product. It has good power and speed on the extractor to do the job. It was easy to out together and install. It fit just perfectly in my bathroom. What I did like about it, is that it doesn't make much noise. It's actually pretty quiet and can barely notice it on. Most extractors cam be loud and don't bother turning them on because of that. But I mixed this in with the shower light so they both turn on at the same time. The color is nice as it blends in with the ceiling white.

Most of the problem I see with a lot of these fans are that they seem quite large hanging from the ceiling. if the bathroom is large these large fans don't look that bad. But if your bathroom is small then you have to have something that has a much lower profile like this fan. It works great is very very quiet and does the job. Now just for info purposes the quieter the fan the less it pulls from the room just keep that in mind if you want to use this fan in a large bathroom. You might need something more powerful which means noisier, unfortunately you can't have one without the other.

I really liked this vent because it was so quiet. But it hasn't even been 3 years since I installed it and it's already stopped working.

It was the most fun to install. Next time we will just buy a replacement motor if needed. I like the look and low noise. We are somewhat handy around the house. But this unit had the support part of the casing on the opposite side as out last and comes with a 4” black plastic air flow duct part instead of our old 3”, so had to go buy a reducer. Instructions are a 4 out of 5 for me. Fairly clear, but in 1 part it says remove 3 screws to get the motor out and I only saw 2. So kept thinking I was doing something wrong. Overall went fine and looks good. After reading the reviews saying it was an easy install… I said I would install, but husband ended up with majority of the work.

Most ventilation fans of this type are so overpriced that it's embarrassing just to comparison shop. If you pay a hundred bucks or more for a bathroom fan, it'd better sprinkle pixie dust through the room, or something. This fan works well and is surprisingly quiet, although the bearings are oddly loud. Still quiet overall, but with more mechanical noise than I expected and less fan (air turbulence) sound. Fine, though. Draft is good. The instructions are so-so, but maybe a third of the time you get decent instructions with anything, so I guess that's just how it is. Don't do wiring yourself if you're not confident about it. This fan wants to be mounted in a particular way that's convenient to new construction and probably half of 'old construction' (ie, adding it to an old bathroom ceiling or replacing an old fan), and it really doesn't want to be turned sideways so the grille is on a wall, or so on. It has push-in electrical connectors that are more trouble than they're worth; if there's any problem and you need to disconnect the fan again, you'll have to cut the wires, which is not helpful. My fan leaked a lot of air around the removable duct connector, so I taped the edges. Otherwise, attaching the duct was no problem. The fan's mounting instructions recommend removing the fan from the housing, in some cases, but doublecheck your install because you may not be able to get at the screws to reinstall the fan after you mount the housing. That won't amuse you. For the money, this is a great modest little fan. Better than average. If you're installing it yourself and have DIY experience, it won't cause you a lot of trouble. For new construction, it should be a snap.

Very quiet, I am not even sure if it properly exhaust out because I have not really tested it but when turned on it's very quiet. 5 stars for now due to low noice but I will have to test them later.

I bought this exhaust fan along with another brand that promised to be quiet and this is is way more superior in being quiet. I have had to turn my shower off at least several times to make sure it was running. Its truly great though i will say it was a little more challenging to install due to it's size. Great product after about 2 months now.
