Homewerks 7146-80-MS Bathroom Fan Integrated Dimmable LED Light Humidity Sensor Exhaust Ventilation 1.5 Sones 80 CFM, Smart Motion White

Fan was installed as part of bathroom remodel so installation was easy. Contractor said it would not be easy if done as a retrofit. Nice design and worked great for 4.5 months, then the control switch stopped working properly. The power light can be turned on, but light and fan buttons no longer respond. I have contacted support to see if this issue can be resolved. Will follow up this review after to add info on explanation and customer service.update - 4/7/23After filling out web form for customer support with my issue, I received an email telling me that they will send a replacement control switch. It is back ordered so should be here by month's end. Since it is a guest bathroom, it is not an issue for me. I will update again once the new switch arrives and installed. Rating upped from 1 to 3 stars.update - 5/9/23Received replacement switch a week ago and installed it myself today. Everything works fine and thanks to the company for standing behind their product and customer service response. I love the features on this fan and we shall see if this new switch last. I have attached an internal picture of the bad switch. Looks like it was made in 2020. Upped rating to 5 stars.

We purchased two of these, one for each of my teenage daughters bathrooms. The automatic sensor is a lifesaver. My daughters never turned on their old bathroom fans and the steam was ridiculous. There were water streaks and mold spots on their walls. With the sensor, they don’t have to worry about it and neither do I because it comes on automatically to clear the steam. It’s much quieter than their old fans too.The light is also very, very bright, which is appreciated. The night lights are nice but my girls don’t use that feature. It will be nice to have when guests visit though. We love the sleek and modern look of the touchpad in the wall. There’s nothing we don’t love about this fan.For us, the fan was smaller than the one we had before, so we had to do some drywall work. When it came to installation, it had to be done through the attic space. Luckily, I have a handy husband and he did awesome work, which was well worth it for this fan. I highly recommend it!

Please note: It appears Amazon groups Homewerks bathroom lights and fans under the same review heading regardless of the product features. This review is for the Smart Bathroom Ventilation fan, Model 7146-80-MSo On the surface this light/fan combination appears to be the perfect solution for bathroom lighting and ventilation. It has motion activated lighting that switches automatically to a nightlight when it senses very low ambient light. This function worked well for me. Not sure how well it would work in a bathroom without a window. It also has an automatic fan that activates when it senses high moisture.o The following information was based on installing the original product shipped from Amazon as well as one replacement light and sensor and one additional complete unit. Both replacement items were provided by Homewerks.o The motion sensing light activates as expected. However, it only stays on for 20 to 25 seconds before turning off. If additional motion is sensed, it will come back on and extinguish again in 20 to 25 seconds. Even if the motion is constant it still turns off and instantly turns back on. This is very annoying. Because this product is designed to be used in a bathroom the designers must know users wont always be moving about.o The moisture sensing fan will turn on and run for about thirty minutes when it senses high moisture. However, it does not turn on soon enough to be useful. The purpose of a bathroom fan is to keep moisture from forming in surfaces which will cause damage over time. If the fan does not start until the room is filled with steam it is too late and the damage is done.o The two automatic features have no adjustments other than manual/automatic. Other motion lights typically have sensitivity and activation time settings. Other moisture sensing controls have a sensitivity control.o The wall control unit does not have a back light which negates manual control of the lighting. Because the control is a flat panel with multiple buttons, it is not possible to casually turn the light on without looking at it as we had done for so many years.The Homewerks team tried to do there best to resolve the problems by shipping replacement parts. Unfortunately they were unable to resolve the problem.
