Summary: Really SUCKS!!!! 2010-02-15
Comment: This is an excellent product. It's our second one. The first lasted for SEVERAL years and finally gave out. When I say it sucks it really does. Sucks all the odors and steam from the bathroom quickly.

Summary: Perfect replacement for Levittown Jubilee 2010-01-30
Comment: We recently did some kitchen remodeling and decided to upgrade the original Kitchen exhaust fan in our Levittown, Pa Jubilee. This Broan 509S fit the hole perfectly, was depth adjustable and had a new outside black metal enameled deflector box diverting the air out and down. The original Broan supplied switch was defective but Broan rushed out a replacement. The small round single position switch (clockwise on; counter-clockwise off) is in the lower right corner of the faceplate. I wish now that I had remotely wired it to a wall switch because its a bit hard to reach in the very corner under overhead cabinets.

Summary: Good Fan 2010-01-30
Comment: I found this fan easy to install once I thought it out a little bit. The instructions were a little fuzzy. It only took 2 hours to install. If you've done it once, though, it will probably only take about an hour to install your next one. It's a little bit loud too. I use it for smoke ventilation in the basement where i usually have the music up so I don't hear it much. It does do a pretty good job of keeping the smoke out of the house, though. It's better to smoke near the fan.

Comment: With the addition of a $10 variable dimmer switch (purchased separately) this ventilator works well.

Summary: it really sucks... no it really pushes air. 2009-10-01
Comment: This fan works great, the on/off knob is very short, so your install location will have to make this work. I had to wire in a switch to make it work. It really moves air, but man is it loud.
