Summary: 3 Stars
Broan/Nautilus 180 CFM Direct Discharge Fan #509S
I purchased this exhaust fan to replace the one in our 1950's home. The original was the same company (NuTone) and was probably about 20+ years old. I was happy to discover this was just about the same size and seemed to be the only option that had a on off switch on the fan instead of having to wire it to a light switch... I really liked that option. Installation was good, instructions were easy to follow. I knew when I bought it that it would be loud.. and MAN is that true! Luckily we don't run it for long periods of time. My only complaint is that it lacks support screws to anchor it into the wall. Since the existing hole in the wall was about .25" larger in diameter, the fan unit sits loosly in the hole. So you can wiggle it if you grab it. I would have liked to see some anchoring screws or something to keep it secure in the hole. But it doesn't cause a problem... if you are installing this from scratch, you will cut the exact hole which will solve the wiggle problem.
All in all... 3 out of 5 mainly for convenience and easy of install. If you can get around the loudness.. you are fine. This fan is rated 5.0 sones, many fans are rated 3 or so, and many are 1 sone.. which is very quiet. You can go to Home Depot and actually hear what a 5.0 fan counds like compared to quieter ones. But I am happy with the purchase.. for the price, it does the job.
