Spot and Continuous Ventilation: These fans are designed to run continuously ensuring a healthy  
environment at low CFM levels 24 hours a day. By utilizing the optional CustomVent Multi-Speed module  
the fans are built to run continuously at a pre-set lower level (FV-05-11VKSL1 and FV-05-11VKL1: 0, 30,  
40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100 CFM; FV-11-15VKL1: 0, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 110, 120 CFM). The setting is  
dependent on the size of the house and the individual wishes of the homeowner. It is crucial that the  
installer pre-set the lower setting during the installation. Please refer to the chart below and the  
switch indication on page 6.

These fans are also built to take care of the homeowner’s spot ventilation needs when the room is  
occupied. The basic fan models allow a choice of three speeds. When fans are equipped with the optional  
Multi-Speed module, these models kick up to a maximum level of 150 CFM for the FV-11-15VKL1 and 110  
CFM for the FV-05-11VKSL1 and FV-05-11VKL1 either when the switch is turned on or activated by the  
optional Condensation Sensor module or the optional Motion Sensor module.  
A High/Low Delay Timer, located inside the fan unit, is utilized to return the fan back to the pre-set  
Continuous ventilation mode. The installer needs to consult with the homeowner for the desired  
setting on the timer (0 - 60 minutes) and make the adjustments during the installation.  
DESCRIPTION  
These products are listed by UL under UL file No. E78414.  
These products use a sirocco fan driven by a DC motor powered by an integral transformer. The motor is  
designed to have long operating life, high dynamic response, higher speed ranges with saving energy.  
The grille covering the fan body is a spring-loaded, quick remove type. A damper for preventing air counter  
flow is provided. The blower uses a high-capacity sirocco fan developed to reduce the noise level.  
The lighting unit is an energy-saving LED lighting device that uses two 7W LED lamps and produces almost  
the same illumination as a standard 60W incandescent lamp.

FEATURE  
[For models of: FV-05-11VKSL1, FV-05-11VKL1, FV-11-15VKL1.]  
The WhisperGreen Select Line of ventilation fans employs innovative, state-of-the-art technologies that  
provide a number of customizable unique features that lead to improved indoor air quality. Please  
read the installation manual first in order to realize the benefits of this customizable, modular fan.

FEATURE  
CONTINUED  
Optimum Ventilation Performance:  
Duct length, elbows and other factors increase static pressure which can hinder the performance of most  
ventilation fans. This fan utilizes SmartFlow microchip technology that monitors the static pressure in the  
system and speeds up or slows down the rpm of the fan depending upon the amount of resistance within  
the ducts. This feature allows the fan to perform as rated and avoid potential installation issues.  
Outstanding Energy Savings:  
The WhisperGreen Select Line of fans are built using DC motor technology. The DC motor is 30% - 70%  
more energy efficient than the minimum ENERGY STAR requirements.  
Pick-A-Flow Feature  
All the WhisperGreen Select base models of fans come with Pick-A-Flow  
speed options. The Pick-A-Flow switch on the face of all WhisperGreen  
Select fans allows the option to choose 50 – 80 – 110 CFM for the  
FV-05-11VKL1, FV-05-11VKSL1 or 110 – 130 – 150 CFM for the  
FV-11-15VKL1. These fans can run continuously or intermittently,  
depending upon the needs of the owner.

FV-VS15VK1 Multi-Speed module allows the fan to run continuously at lower  
speeds to maintain ventilation standards to meet Indoor Air Quality and then  
boost up to high speed to meet intermittent needs for ‘Spot’ or ‘Point Source’  
exhaust needs. The FV-VS15VK1 Modular Component will operate for both the  
Note that there is ONLY  
ONE Plug ‘N Play slot to

module within the base

FV-05-11VKL1 and the FV-11-15VKL1 matching the appropriate Multi-Speed  
setting shown below. The FV-05-11VKSL1 comes with the FV-VS15VK1  
Multi-Speed module. It is not necessary to purchase this component.  
Note the options on the face of the FV-VS15VK1 Multi-Speed module to  
choose appropriate levels of airflow (CFM) and time delay before returning  
back to low speed (TIME). Choosing the Pick-A-Flow setting automatically  
adjusts the Multi-Speed setting accordingly. As an example,if the Pick-A-Flow  
Multi-speed setting is 80 CFM, the Multi-Speed settings adjust automatically  
to be 0, 30, 40, 50, 60 or 70CFM at the lower speeds. The fan will ‘boost’  
to the 80 CFM speed as the high speed setting. Selecting a particular TIME  
option will cause the fan to run for the selected amount of time before  
returning to the lower speed setting chosen on the CFM dial.

FV-CSVK1 Condensation Sensor module turns the base fan on or boosts  
to higher speed when humidity is detected when used in combination  
with the FV-VS15VK1. The Condensation Sensor works based on  
calculations from the Psychrometric Chart, or combination of Relative  
Humidity (RH) and Temperature. This allows the fan to anticipate the  
formation of condensation and automatically turn on when needed to  
expel humid air. The Condensation Sensor is pre-set to run for 20 minutes;  
it will then check the RH and Temperature to detect if the fan needs to  
run for another 20 minutes cycle.

FV-MSVK1 Motion Sensor module turns the base fan on or boosts  
to higher speed when motion is detected when using in combination  
with the FV-VS15VK1. The Motion Sensor is pre-set to run for 20  
minutes; it will then re-check for movement; if detected the fan will  
run for another 20 minutes cycle. The Motion Sensor detects within  
the range shown below.  
The distance that motion  
can be detected is limited  
to 10 feet (3m). The field  
of view of the sensor is 90°.  
(Room temperature is 25 C).  
FV-NLVK1 Nite-GloTM LED Night Light module automatically turns  
on when ambient light setting is met. Turn the dial on the  
Night Light module to 'DARK' if the fan is in an isolated room  
with little ambient light. Turn the dial to 'BRIGHT' if ambient  
light is present.  
DESCRIPTION FOR NIGHT LIGHT MODULE  
Please note that if plan to use the FV-NLVK1 Nite-Glo™ LED Night Light  
module, it is recommended to control the fan by the control switch

PRACTICAL GUIDE TO INSTALLATION  
Properly insulate the area around the fan to  
4 inches or 6 inches roof jack, wall cap,  
minimize building heat loss and gain. (Fig.23) or soffit vent with backdraft damper  
Loose fill or batt insulation can be placed  
directly over the fan housing in the attic.  
Mechanically connect duct to termination  
and seal with mastic or approved foil  
faced tape  
Our fans and fan/light combination units do  
2-3 ft straight run before elbow  
not create excessive heat that is a common  
In attic installation,  
problem with recessed light fixtures or some  
caulk box to drywall  
competitor’s fan/light combination. Our  
efficient, cool-running motors and our LED  
lighting unit do not create enough ambient  
heat to be subjected to these limitations.  
The ducting from this fan to the outside of  
Short piece of flexible duct helps  
alignment and absorbs sound.  
Clamps plus mastic or approved  
foil faced tape at all flex joints  
Insulation  
Foil tape tightly covers all metal  
duct joints (glue PVC joints)

the building has a strong effect on the air flow, noise and energy use of the fan. Use the shortest,  
straightest duct routing possible for best performance, and avoid installing the fan with smaller  
ducts than recommended. Insulation around the ducts can reduce energy loss and inhibit mold  
growth. Fans installed with existing ducts may not achieve their rated air flow.
