I am very pleased with the quality, low noise level, and operation of this fan.

Regarding installation: The installation hardware is designed for installation with the lower housing flange above the ceiling. To install with the flange below the ceiling, I put blocks between the joists and the fan sides, and put screws through the housing into the blocks instead of using the supplied installation hardware.

I must say that I didn't want to pay $200 for a bathroom vent fan, BUT let me say it is worth every penny. This thing is super quite (you can't hear it with the shower on at all) and gets the job done when it comes to keeping the condensation away. Why would you pay $150 at other home type stores when you can buy this and it is the best fan for the job. Installing wasn't really any different than another fan would be. If I ever replace a vent fan I will not waste my time with anything other than a Panasonic!
