Broan-NuTone AE110L Ventilation Fan with LED Light and Roomside Installation, ENERGY STAR Certified, 110 CFM 1.0 Sones White

Nice flush mount fan with a super bright LED light. Fan draws well and is very quiet. Just installed it yesterday so time will tell but so far we are very happy

Yeah, so... This is a nice, residential quality, bath fan from the industry leader. No complaints. The packaging was good. The instructions were good. The build quality is good. Really, it's exactly what you'd expect.However, after going through the fairly tedious process of removing one unit and replacing it with another (from the same manufacturer), I can see now that I could have saved myself a bunch of time and a bunch of money, if I'd just replaced the motor assembly from the old fan. I mean much of what I took out was replaced with something nearly identical (honestly, the older metal was slightly thicker gauge). What a waste of time and resources!So, credit where it's due: the manufacturer has designed these to be highly modular for cleaning and repair. If your old fan is loud, take it apart, clean the lint off, replace the motor, and put everything back together. Then, you can skip the demolition, the (frustrating!) housing removal, the instalation of the new box, reconnecting ducting, rewiring... The list goes on.

I replaced all four 20-year-old Broan fans in my 2-story house.This unit seems well-engineered/quiet/high capacity, and the spare 25,000 hour LED light modules are available for $35 from Broan-Nutone.This fan has the same height and spatial relationship between the mounting bracket/housing wall and the air outlet duct as the old Broan fan does, even though it is much higher capacity.The electrical inlet is in the opposite side, but in every case, there was plenty of spare Romex wire length available once a staple was pulled out.I installed all of my fans without going into the attic, which is essential for several of the fans.I was able to remove the old fan and prepare for the new one by using a long extension electric screwdriver, drywall saw, pry bar, and Channellock pliers.In two cases I needed to screw on a foot-long piece of wood (2” x 2” or 23/32” x 5.5”) to provide a large enough flat surface for the mounting bracket/housing wall.For these retrofit installations, I folded the mounting brackets against the housing (as instructed) and put about 5 short drywall or deck screws through the housing wall into the stud or I-beam to mount the housing.Be sure to watch the installation videos on Amazon and YouTube before installing.I used 2” aluminum duct tape for the duct connection and also to seal the fan housing to the ceiling drywall (highly recommended to stop air/dust leaks).The hole needed in the ceiling drywall is one inch larger than the old 9" x 9" fan in one direction only.Be sure to mount the fan housing far enough into the ceiling so none of it hangs out; the grille springs can accommodate up to 1/2” indent at leastInstalling each fan and cleaning up requires about 3-4 hours for an experienced, careful handyman.The job is messy due to the drywall dust and blown-in insulation, so be sure to wear a mask.Note that if your 4" discharge hose or your attic grates are restricted in flow, the fan noise will increase.If you have separate light and fan switches and want an LED dimmer, another reviewer recommends the LeGrand RHCL453PTCCCV6 over the Lutron for minimal buzzing noise.Installing the LED module in the grille is a little tricky: hold the grille in both hands and sequentially work the grille's 2 latches up onto the the highest notch on each side of the module.

I bought 5 of these Bathroom fans, The fans are reasonably quiet and powerful. The lights are bright. But unfortunately one of them came with a faulty light. Never worked. Trying to buy the light, but the part number E477137 only show the whole fan but not the light assembly.Overall I am happy with the quality of this purchase except this one glitch.

easy to install, removes steam from shower great, low noise from fan, good price

Had to retro fit. Was easy to install works great. Light is very bright. Fan is quite and strong.

Reasonable to install, fan is very powerful and light is bright.No more fogging mirror when showering.

The unit did not come with joist hangars, so I need to build a box in the attic. won't attach to 2 x4 you need at least 2x 6 to attach it. Biggest disappointment is the LED is super bright and so I put it on a dimmer. Then when using the dimmer the LED light (not the dimmer switch) buzzes very loud. Tried buying a dimmer supposedly for LED's and to limit buzzing but it did not work. Finally, I don't know how in the H#ll they claim this unit is 1 sone. It is not super loud but definitely louder than 1 sone. It was not easy to install and would not buy this model again.
