Yep, put a Fantech unit in ours and it's great.  The air moving through the
grille makes just enough noise to let you know it's running.  But no fan
racket at all.  During the renovation and sanding drywall it was interesting
it pulling dust from 6' away.

That and they make a low voltage lamp assembly that fits into the center of
the grille.  Light and exhaust right where you need it without undue AC
voltage risk.
