Broan-NuTone Bathroom Exhaust Fan Easy Retrofit without Attic Access, Quiet 1.5 Sones, Effective Ventilation at 80 CFM ENERGY STAR Certified Moisture and Odor Control

I am a 20 year-old very small women, and I installed this completely by myself with no issues. The hardest part of installing this was taking out my old bathroom vent. The installation was very easy. I looked on the reviews when I noticed that the fan had aluminum wires and no one else in the reviews seem to mention it so I wanted to make sure that I talk about the fact that this fan has aluminum wires. There’s no problem with the fan having aluminum wires in itself, but you cannot directly connect aluminum wires to copper house wires. The wires in my attic and all throughout my house or copper, which is majority and most homes and you cannot directly connect aluminum to copper or else it can create a chemical reaction and start a fire. On Amazon, you can order these two port Alumiconn connectors to connect the copper and aluminum wires safely. This step is absolutely necessary so you don’t accidentally start a fire. I also had to extend the electrical wires in my attic, so can reach to the other side of the box, but in most cases you won’t have to do this. Other than having to wait for the proper connectors to arrive, the installation was very fast and very easy in my opinion. One thing to note also is that the screws that come with the bathroom fan are weaker and get stripped easier. So just be cautious to not accidentally strip the screws while installing. I made sure to buy the same brand as my old fan so that the fitting was the same size. The fan is great. It’s very quiet. Sometimes I don’t even notice it’s on and the airflow is very good during my showers. The mirrors were not fogged at all, and it keeps all of the moisture out of my bathroom so there’s no bad mildew smells and amounts of moisture that can cause mold. I definitely recommend this fan personally I think it’s great for anyone doing this sort of thing for the first time but just be sure to get the proper connectors for aluminum two copper wires.

A big upgrade compared to the cheap one my house came with. Much quieter with greater airflow, almost direct replacement and straight forward installing. The exhaust cover is more functional and modern looking which is a plus.

I previously had a Broan bath fan that was old and super loud. Like, couldn't hear anything but the fan when it was on. If someone stood outside the bathroom talking it was impossible to hear. So I set out to find a quiet version that would take up the same real estate. Because I already had a Broan, I figured another by the same company ought to fit into the same opening. In fact, it did! This made installation very easy. The only trouble I had was getting the old fan out, and running the new exhaust line. This fan has a cover to give it a nice, clean look and best of all, it's nearly silent! Now you can hear someone speaking from pretty much any room in the house. I don't have any data on whether it moves more or less air than the old one, but it does seem to be keeping shower steam at bay. I consider this a very good upgrade if you are looking for a quiet replacement to retrofit in place of an old Broan.

Was installed within an hour. Sounds super quiet and does a great job removing moisture from the air.

This Broan-NuTone bathroom exhaust fan is a fantastic upgrade—installation was surprisingly easy, even without attic access. It runs very quietly at just 1.5 sones while still doing an excellent job clearing out moisture and odors. A reliable, efficient solution that makes a noticeable difference right away.

Excellent product! Very quiet yet stron

We are very happy with this bathroom exhaust fan. It was easy to install and has been working really well. One of the best things about it is how quiet it is, it runs smoothly without the loud noise that our prior bathroom fan had. We liked it so much we bought it for all other bathrooms in the house.

Very quiet, a lot of people say it is noisy …. But it’s quite as a mouse
