1 of 1 people found the following review helpful The exact solution I was looking for., By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Broan 509 180 CFM 6.5 Sones Through Wall Ventilation Fan, White Square Plastic Grille (Tools & Home Improvement) I bought this fan to go through the wall of an exercise room I use with my wife. It can get pretty humid in there especially in the summer. The fan works well, Is reasonably quiet and was simple to install if you are comfortable with basic wiring and construction.

I tapped off an existing 120v outlet and brought power to a fan wall timer and speed control on a 2 gang box. I can adjust the speed of the fan and the duration it stays on.

They even make a model with a built in switch if you need it. I had to go through a 12 inch cinderblock wall and then my studwall but is was easy and inexpensive to extend the length of the fan sleeve with off the shelf 8" round duct from a big box diy store. 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful Replacement for old Nutone through the wall fan, Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Broan 509 180 CFM 6.5 Sones Through Wall Ventilation Fan, White Square Plastic Grille (Tools & Home Improvement) We are renovating our kitchen and did not want to remove the old Nutone through the wall fan but rather to replace with a newer model. This replacement fan was the answer. It is hard wired in and did take a little modification but it did the trick. However, there are some cons about this fan. It is much more powerful than my original fan and therefore much more noisy. However, it does move a lot of air in a short period of time. Secondly, the grille is made out of plastic. This is disappointing because something that is so permanent should be made out of metal that can be painted the same color as your wall. I would gladly have paid a few more dollars for metal versus cheap flimsy plastic. All in all it was a good solution. Incidentally, the reason I purchased this fan is because the original fan has been in the home since it was built (40 years ago). The only reason I replaced it was because of its age and obvious rust from years of use. This goes to show that Nutone made...
