NuTone Ventilation Fans

Selection Guide
Steamy mirrors, damp walls and fogged windows. They’re
more than annoying. They could indicate developing
problems like mold and mildew, ruined insulation, and
wood rot. Spot ventilation solutions from NuTone clear
the air quickly and efficiently removing potential problems
before they invite themselves into your home.
What’s in stays in today’s airtight homes.
Today’s homes are built airtight for
efficiency. But that means moisture
and airborne pollutants stay where
they are unless they are vented
away. Eliminating excess moisture
keeps your home dry and
comfortable and can help avoid
mold and mildew. Volatile organic
compounds (VOCs) “outgas” from
construction materials such as
plywood, carpet, fabric, paint,
adhesive, insulation and other
common items. Allergens, dust, cooking vapor and what
the kids bring home from school are more reasons why
good ventilation is critical.
Which product is best suited to my application?
Take a moment to consider what you’re looking for in a
spot ventilation product. Do you want quiet operation, a
powerful blower, decorative designs or something that’s
virtually invisible? Could you use more light, or ventilation
in a walk-in closet? NuTone has what you need.
Sones measure the “sound level” of your fan.
A sone is a measurement of sound in terms of
comfortable hearing level for an average listener.
The lower the sone value, the more comfortable the
environment. Sones are not decibels or volume, but
rather how sound is “sensed.” One sone is half as loud
as two sones, and is equivalent to a quiet refrigerator.
What “HVI certified” means to you.
The Home Ventilating Institute (HVI)
is an independent organization that
certifies the airflow and sound
performance claimed by manufacturers
of ventilation products. NuTone
certifies every product through HVI
to ensure the product you purchase will
perform as claimed.
