How we checked
The Panasonic IAQ manufacturer page confirms Model FV-0511VQ1 as the fan-only WhisperCeiling DC with Pick-A-Flow 50-80-110 CFM, ECM/DC motor, and ENERGY STAR certification, publishing the full performance table (at rated 110 CFM / 0.1 in.w.g.: <0.3 sones, 10.6 W, 10.6 CFM/W) plus the dual 4"/6" duct adapter and DC motor type; the page describes no light or humidity sensor, confirming this is the base unit (not the separate "with Light" variant). Sunco Lighting (retailer, SKU FV-0511VQ1) corroborates the identical model and specs, uniquely adds the 110 sq. ft. rated room size and the 3-Year Manufacturer's Warranty, states "0.3 sones at its highest speed," and prices the fan at $167.99. That $167.99 street price is independently matched by BuyRite Electric (sale $167.99, regular $199.99), which also republishes the same manufacturer spec table verbatim.
