WhisperValue® DC Fan, Condensation Sensor
The WhisperValue® DC exhaust fan FV-0510VSC1 with integrated condensation sensor is the ultimate low-profile spot ventilation fan, perfect for residential construction, including single-family homes, multi-family buildings, and manufactured homes. Combining an ultra-slim design with a revolutionary ECM motor and SmartFlow™ technology, it delivers exceptional performance and stands out as the lowest-profile ENERGY STAR®-rated fan on the market.
The WhisperValue®FV-0510VSC1 boasts two key features for enhanced versatility: the Pick-A-Flow® Airflow Selector, which allows you to choose between 50, 80, or 100 CFM for customizable ventilation, and an optional built-in Condensation Sensor, designed to automatically control moisture levels and prevent excess humidity. These features ensure the fan meets various ventilation needs, complies with building codes, and reduces the likelihood of callbacks, making it a reliable and efficient choice for any project.
- Customizable Airflow with Pick-A-Flow® Selector: Select the CFM that suits your space—50, 80, or 100 CFM—for precision airflow and optimal performance.
- SmartFlow™ Technology: Automatically adjusts the fan’s speed to maintain peak performance, saving energy and ensuring the best CFM output.
- Condensation Sensor: Detects humidity and temperature to prevent mold and mildew by automatically activating the fan. Features adjustable RH sensitivity for optimal performance and CALGreen compliance, with a 20-minute auto-off timer.
- Lowest Profile Design: With a housing depth of just 3-3/8", this is the slimmest ENERGY STAR® certified fan available, making it perfect for tight spaces and easy installation, even in 2x4 stud walls.
- Easy Installation: The unique L-shaped bracket offers strong support and simplifies installation, while its UL-approved design allows for ceiling or wall mounting.
- Cost-Effective Wall Installation: Wall-mounted installation eliminates the need for expensive radiation dampers in fire-rated ceilings, making it an ideal choice for multi-family projects.
- Code Compliance: Fully compatible with ASHRAE 62.2, IAP, California Title 24, CALGreen, and WA Ventilation Code, ensuring it meets the most stringent industry standards.
- Warranty: 6 years ECM Motor, 3 years all other parts
