ULTRA GREEN 80 CFM Ceiling Exhaust Bath Fan, ENERGY STAR

Product operated very quiet. Installation from renovation was quite difficult since working from inside home. Application for new construction would be the the preferred method. Overall very pleased with unit.

Snap in installation and so quite you won't notice that its on Model # XN50 Internet #203620042 NuTone ULTRA GREEN 50 CFM Ceiling Exhaust Bath Fan, ENERGY STAR My old exhaust fan quit and I needed to replace it with something a little more upscale then the less expensive models that only last a few years. The NuTone ULTRA GREEN fan offered features I hadn't seen on other exhaust fans. For instance, it has a mounting frame that telescopes to adapt to the distances between the ceiling joist for a solid base. It comes with screws pre-attached. Once the frame was installed, I wired the electrical, attached the duct and snapped the exhaust fan in. The reason they say it is ULTRA GREEN is that the exhaust fan uses ULTRASmart DC motor technology which is 10 times more efficient and need only 0.1 amps to operate. I did a retrofit installations and all of the work could be done from the room-side. I took pictures from the attic to show how it looks but the work was done from the room-side. So how quite is the ULTRASilent 0.3 sones? That is equal to 12 dBA which is the sound of someone breathing, extremely quiet operation. Important Facts: Clears up to 45 sq. ft. UL listed for use over tubs/showers with GFCI circuit ULTRASmart DC motor technology for energy efficiency almost 10 times greater than others ENERGY STAR qualified to help lower utility bills

Amazing product. Works as desgined. No humidity. Cannto hear it , no noise at all. Only make sure that you understand 6" output means 6" duct and 6" outlet . If you reduce the duct size or the outlet size to 4" you will get some noise which is still lower than 80% of the exhausts out there. Other reviews are accurate. this is a Dc motor and takes 5 to 7 seconds to go full speed . i see no issues with it. usually in the shower or the bathroom for more than 7 seconds lol...

Purchased 2 to install in bathrooms that did not have bath fans installed. Unbelievably quiet. Extremely effective.

We purchased this fan because we thought it was just what we wanted:110 com.05 done6 inch exhaustIt had the hangers .Well installation was a nightmare. The hangers were flimsy. The screws were teeny tiny, hardly enough to hold a fan in place.The fan was quiet until we attached the exhaust.

Fan is very quiet but does not move 80cfm. I am using 6 inch duct but the mirrors are steamed over and the small room (5ft x 9ft) gets very humid. I used to have the Nutone LS80 (which is discontinued), and the LS80 did a much better job of removing the moist air. Using my old fan I never had steamed mirrors or a humidity problem. Very disappointed with this fan.

Installed from below. A couple screws tricky to get in to reassemble but overall fairly easy. Fan runs quiet. Need to get used to the motor starting slowly. No instant on anymore.

The reason for 3stars is due to the lack of essential information concerning th e limitations of this fan. It can not be controlled by any type of speed control and most electronic timers will not work with it. (The timer switch must have a neutral wire)

Easy to install. Replaced our 17-year old, very loud fan. This one is quiet but loud enough to not forget it’s on. Removes moisture from showers efficiently.
