Fits exactly! for heating, cooling and air quality

After replacing the heater I noticed an increase in airflow which was not initially recognized when the noise started. When I removed the grate I also noticed that the plastic around the heater had melted. This seems to indicate that I had to replace it because of the reduced airflow rather than the annoying noise. I'm a handyman/DIY enthusiast and this was a lesson for me. My unit was over 20 years old. Glad you got your units back!

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Broan heater worked like clockwork

Our old heater failed and I needed a replacement. Everything about the installation of this heater and the adaptation of the room had to fit together almost perfectly. I made a mistake on the first purchase and bought the wrong model (the old part had no information about the part or model at all). Broan/Revain allowed me to return the wrong purchase with no problems. I bought the correct part and installed it with no problems; it fits like a glove. In the meantime, Revain has credited my…

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • boring packaging

Faulty Unit - Caution

I purchased this unit to replace a heater that had failed in my Broan Heater/Fan/Light unit. Furnished. After a few days it started banging and hitting and shaking. The fan has balancing issues and wobbles inside the case. Other reviews have noted the same issue with heaters sold by this seller. I agree with the assessment of someone selling a manufacturing defect and selling it as new. If you compare the prices of these devices here to those sold elsewhere, you will find that this seller is…

Pros
  • Hands Free Operation
Cons
  • Something Else

Dangerous product - nearly started a fire

The engine was new and fitted with no problems. I turned on the device and the device worked well and was very quiet. The next morning I turned on the fan and heater and took a shower. A few minutes later I smelled a burning smell and looked outside to see the fan cover was melting and the coils inside were red hot to yellow from the motor not cooling them. The thermal overload connection didn't work either. If I hadn't been in the room or gone to have coffee and heat the room, a fire would…

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

The heater/motor fits multiple brands of lights/heaters/fans!

I have a Nautilus light/fan/heater combo in my bathroom. age unknown. After reviewing the devices built by Nautilus, Broan, and NuTone, I found that all of the device cases for this particular model have the same dimensions. So I thought that spare parts might be interchangeable. I ordered a replacement part and received it quickly. I removed the grille/lightball cover, cleaned it, then loosened and then removed the two screws holding the heater/motor assembly and then pulled it out. Vacuuming…

Pros
  • Great product
Cons
  • Almost never

Contrary to other reviews, this item makes no noise and fits perfectly.

I hesitated to buy this item, reviews said it was loud, should be returned etc. Not my case, it fits perfectly, works great and I recommend buying it. It's quiet, works well and now I can use the heater in my bathroom to remove more moisture like I used to. more and they recommended replacing a complete exhaust fan. Since it matched my part number that I needed I took a chance and bought it. It was the right detail and now my exhaust fan is fully functional again.

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • I will add later

Exact heater replacement for my Broan bathroom, light, fan and heater

A lens, bulb, acorn nut, two screws and two plush is all you need to replace your old heater. It took me literally longer to fix this than removing the lens, bulb, union nut (retaining cap and light body) and taking the light body off (put it on the floor, loosen the two screws holding the light). Heater, turn off the heater, put on the floor Insert new heater, tighten the two screws, plug in, test heater (with the wall switch. If the test is successful, lift off the cover and lamp body…

Pros
  • Best in class
Cons
  • Not sure

This part works great, but before you jump into DIY, know what you're doing!

Replacement is very easy - it was the entire heater replacement kit so all I had to do was remove the vent cover, loosen a few mounting screws and pull out the old unit. Revolution. This part is literally "plug and play" - there is a standard outlet for power in the ceiling fan housing. However, the reason my previous device didn't work was that the wires were shorted to metal (probably due to the wire insulation melting from contact with hot metal over time). So know what you are doing and if…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than others

The replacement heater has fan balancing issues

I ended up ordering three of these from Amazon; sequentially. When the first surfaced the fan was out of balance and when it reached full speed the sound was like that of a 747 taking off. Heavy vibration and noise. So I thought I must have gotten a bad one. Then I ordered the 2nd one and it had the same problem. Doing the math three times was a charm, I tried again but the third time was just as bad. So for another $10 I ordered a complete heater, vent and fan unit. The heater that comes with…
