Broan S97014212 Light Reflector with Socket: Illuminate Your Space with Style and Functionality Review

The aluminum part didn't fit my fan and I needed an outlet. I used the bushing in my original part, it worked like clockwork and recycled the aluminum part!

Perfect! In the end I swapped the motor and impeller. Not to mention the faceplate and lens. Purr like a kitten! I have a practically new device without dismantling the ceiling.

Bought this light hoping to replace an old bulb with a new LED. Won't work for this, another fork and I believe mine has a ballast that needs to be changed.

because the old lamp was defective. I determined the old reflector was bad when the new bulb didn't light up. Then I removed the old reflector, put in a working lightbulb and plugged it into an outlet. When it still didn't light up, I identified a new reflector. It arrived very quickly and worked as expected.

Perfect! I would have and should have bought this a long time ago if I knew I could just replace the mount. I was about to buy a brand new fan/heater until one day when I was dusting off I found it was just attached to the assembly. I immediately started looking for parts, found and ordered this one, and voila! Exactly what I needed. Works perfectly!

It was an old crappy pl2 fluorescent socket Easy replacement 8-10 minutes. Without tools1. Remove the center lamp cover 2. Loosen the center nut that holds the reflector. (The edge/border is held by this)3. Disable/uncheck Reverse Steps to install. An A19 bulb will fit, but an A15 bulb will fit better. I inserted A19. There is 1 tab that I slid to the side and I bent the socket down so the bulb doesn't touch the lock nut.

The original part had a concave hole through which the screw attached to the engine case. This replacement does not have a concave notch, so the original screw is too short to screw on. To do this, the fan housing and fan motor had to be removed and a longer connecting screw installed. What a mess! Hence the moral of my review: if your current case has a concave hole that has a screw attached, brace yourself for extra work.

This was the perfect solution to replacing the boring, hard-to-find fluorescent version we had in our bathroom with something that worked with LED lights could. It's a bit flimsy, so after reading the reviews I decided to use some clear gasket material to reduce the vibration noise caused by the unwelded seams rattling. It's much quieter now, so I'd recommend that setting. This is a replacement part for an existing lamp. Added a photo of what I pasted.
