 Quiet, turns on when needed, no condensation on walls anymore October 26, 2009

The Broan Humidity Sensing Fan was installed in our bathroom two months ago. The bathroom doesn't get steamy anymore - no steamed mirrors and no condensation on the walls or window. The fan is quiet - a gentle low whoosh is all I hear. I hear it turn on but it quickly becomes quiet background noise I don't notice. The electrician installed a wall switch for the fan as well. When I wash down the shower walls I can override the sensor, turn the fan on manually and the fan pulls the cleaning smell out of the bathroom quickly. In the morning, when everyone is rushing, no one needs to remember to turn the fan on. Then, in the hurry to get out the door, no one forgets to turn the fan off. Not that we ever had that problem! ;) The humidity sensor feature turns it on every time when needed and turns it off when the air is clear. It will prevent mold AND save energy - it was worth the extra money for the humidity sensor.

I CANT BELIEVE NOT MORE PEOPLE HAVE THIS PRODUCT.IT IS SOOO NICE TO COME OUT OF THE SHOWER AND NOT HAVE THE ENTIRE ROOM FULL OF STEAM. PLUS WE NO LONGER HAVE A MOISTURE PROBLEM IN THE BEDROOM.IT IS TRUELY WORTH EVERY PENNY( THIS IS OUR SECOND ONE THAT WE BOUGHT FOR OUR HOME.OUR GUESTS LOVE IT TOO )

We recently renovated our kitchen and bathroom and of all the new things we got, this humidity sensing fan is my favorite. With three teenagers taking showers, we would get so much condensation on the walls that drips would run down the walls and we would get brownish stains (I assume from mold).
This fan turns on automatically shortly after the shower starts and runs for 20 minutes. No more nagging the teenagers to open the window! It can be set up with one wall switch or two switches. With two switches, one turns on the automatic mode (humidity sensor) and one is a manual override to turn the fan on. With one switch, what we have, I can turn the fan on manually by flipping the switch off for 1 second and then back on. Flipping it off for 4 seconds of more and then on again changes it back to automatic mode.
The only reason I didn't rate the fan with 5 stars is that it occasionally turns on when it shouldn't and it doesn't have an adjustable run time. I think 15 minutes would work better for us, but it will always run for 20 minutes.

This fan is noisy. It is supposed to be a 1.5 sones noise level fan....don't believe it. On the other hand, the dealer we purchased the fan from was great. There was a problem with the grill and upon notification, the dealer had our replacement to us in three days. It short, great dealer...not so sure about fan.
