Frequently Asked Questions - Flex AN000HLKT NuTone

How to clean the fan?

Lower or remove the grille and clean the inside of the unit with a vacuum with a dusting brush.

Can I install the fan in a bathroom?

Yes, if it is connected to a circuit protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) and installed only on the ceiling.

How to select the airflow?

On some models, you can choose between 50, 80 or 110 CFM using a switch located on the fan housing.

Does the motor need oiling?

No, the motor is permanently lubricated and requires no maintenance. If the bearings are noisy, replace the entire fan.

What type of control to use?

Use a two-function wall control (sold separately) to operate the fan and light separately. Do not use a speed control.

How to replace the lamp?

For models with LED lighting, the light module snaps into the grille. Disconnect power, remove the grille, and replace the module. Some models have a separate LED power supply module.

Where to find replacement parts?

Visit the website Broan-NuTone.com or call 800-558-1711 (United States) or 800-567-3855 (Canada).

Can the fan be installed in a shower?

Yes, if installed on the ceiling and protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI). Do not install it in a cooking area.

What is the warranty?

See the warranty statement on the website or contact customer service at the numbers listed in the manual.

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

1. Use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have questions, contact the manufacturer at the address or telephone number listed in the warranty.
2. Before servicing or cleaning unit, switch power off at service panel and lock the service disconnecting means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. When the service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.
3. Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by a qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fi re-rated construction codes and standards.
4. Suffi cient air is needed for proper combustion and exhausting of gases through the fl ue (chimney) of fuel burning equipment to prevent backdrafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer's guideline and safety standards such as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.
5. When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.
6. Ducted fans must always be vented to the outdoors.
7. Acceptable for use over a tub or shower when connected to a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) - protected branch circuit (ceiling installation only).
8. This unit must be grounded.

CAUTION

1. For general ventilating use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.
2. This product can be installed in a wall if mounted 8-ft. or more above the floor.
3. To avoid motor bearing damage and noisy and/or unbalanced impellers, keep drywall spray, construction dust, etc. off power unit.
4. Please read specification label on product for further information and requirements.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

For quiet and efficient operation, long life, and attractive appearance - lower or remove grille and vacuum interior of unit with the dusting brush attachment.

The motor is permanently lubricated and never needs oiling. If the motor bearings are making excessive or unusual noises, replace the blower assembly (includes motor and impeller).

OPERATION

The fan and light can be operated separately. Use a 2-function wall control.

Flex™ Series Fan/Light ONLY: Do not use a speed control to operate the fan.

COOKING AREA Do not install above or inside this area. 45° 45° NOT FOR USE IN A COOKING AREA. Cooking Equipment Floor

IMPORTANT - The ducting from this fan to the outside of the building has a strong effect on the air flow, noise and energy use of the fan. Use the shortest, straightest duct routing possible for best performance, and avoid installing the fan with smaller ducts than recommended. Insulation around the ducts can reduce energy loss and inhibit mold growth. Fans installed with existing ducts may not achieve their rated airflow.
