It's about as inefficient as it gets. Spot heating solves that problem. No longer will you heat an entire home when you simply need a bit of comfort in the bath or dressing room, or any other room.Efficient Heating ElementEven the most efficient central heating systems send heat up the chimney. But Broan spot heaters deliver every bit of energy back into your home. There's no external venting, so the electricity you convert to heat is delivered directly where you want it. Simple, Safe, and Efficient.Permanently lubricated motors are quiet and require no maintenance. They can be operated by a built-in adjustable thermostat or an optional wall-mount controller. Heaters may be converted in the field to a choice of wattages/voltages. And for safety, heaters are thermal overload protected and the complete heater assembly conveniently removes from the housing for cleaning.About Broan-NuToneIn 1932, Henry Broan developed and manufactured a kitchen fan called the Motordor Fan that provided quiet and efficient kitchen ventilation.

Review: Excellent Bathroom Heater - I was using a 1500W ceramic heater to heat our bathroom. I'd turn it on about a half hour before I wanted to take a shower but would often get delayed or forget and it'd run for hours. Now I turn on the Broan heater as I enter to shave or take my shower and turn it off when I am finished. 500w for 25 minutes is much cheaper than 1500w for 1-3 hours. I have each bulb and the vent fan on separate switches so I can control what runs. 500w directly overhead is very efficient and I suspect will be overkill in warmer seasons. It definitely knocks the chill off the room. I especially like that it has 2 heat sensors, either of which will turn on the fan if necessary to ensure the enclosure doesn't overheat if I'm only using the heat lamps. Installation was very easy with adequate adjustments to make everything fit and look great. The wiring illustrations were clear for the various optional configurations.
Review: Great light & fan. Instructions might be difficult for some. - Great price. Easy to replace my existing broken exhaust fan from attic side of ceiling. Used triple switch to wire lights and fan individually. Wiring instructions are vague on how exhaust fan thermostat works so separating them might be difficult for those unfamiliar with electrical. So, if you can't figure it out, you probably shouldn't be fooling with wiring anyway. Also, the plastic damper door on exhaust is very flimsy, mine broke when I tried to put it back together after it fell out while in the attic with low light. I should have taken my time to reinstall door because I had to modify the broken door to fit upside down which took a couple of hours. The lights and fan work great once installed correctly. The unit I bought was used/new/open and slightly bent, but easy to straighten. Happy with outcome.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: diferance between 163 and 164?**
A: The 163 is a heater only.  The 164 is a heater and exhaust fan.

**Q: Can you turn the lights on without using the heat?**
A: Yes. Initially the old device was a light on one switch and a fan on anothe. rWe wired the bathroom light and fan together on one switch and the heat lamp on the other. Mike 2/7/2013

**Q: Will this heat up a bathroom even with high vaulted ceilings?**
A: It works fine for us. My bathroom ceiling vaults from 10' on one side to 12' on the other. The infrared lamp seems to provide plenty of heat for individuals. It is not designed to be a space heater.

**Q: Is this an actual exhaust fan that connects to the outside or does it blow the heat inward?**
A: It blows to the outside - not to remove heat but to remove moisture from a bathroom. The purpose of the unit is two fold. One, it ventilates air from the bathroom to outside. It attaches to ducting in the attic and to a vent on the roof or wall to the outside. The heat lamps radiate heat to keep you warm before, after, or during bathing. The black piece is where the ducting attaches in the attic. It as a damper included. It closes off the outside air when the vent  fan is turned off.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ NOT the same as the old one, but a good unit
*by J***S on March 12, 2012*

Despite what many here have claimed this product is not the same unit as the older versions. You can not simply switch fans, for example. The old units had two screws holding the blower unit in place, one on the top of the housing and one on the side beneath the blower itself. The new one has them both on the side, meaning you can not take the new one out and install it into your old fixture. Orientation of the external components has changed as well, the vent discharge chute faces a different direction and the electrical hookup is in a different location. If your wiring doesn't have a lot of slack, or if rigid vent pipe was used you will have to replace the wiring or the vent pipe, or both. Additionally, while the same approximate width, the new unit is well over an inch longer than the older units, requiring additional cutting of the ceiling if the unit is replacing an old one. That being said, the unit works as described. Installation, while not easy, is not overly difficult. If you have access to the space above the room where the unit is being installed you can complete a new installation with no need for drywall or plaster repair. The fan is fairly quiet once installed, about what I'd expect from a unit in this price range. It can be wired in numerous ways to give complete control over the individual lights and the fan, and by installing different bulbs you can use it as a light, a heater, or both. Two things to note: 1. There is no template provided, you will have to make your own to more easily facilitate marking the ceiling where you need to cut. I recommend drilling a small hole in the ceiling (from the attic above), centered between the joists, then centering your own template on that mark. 2. The instructions claim there is a protective cover to be used when plastering around the unit, this cover is supposedly marked on the box and instructions are supposedly on the box as well. Neither existed. It is possible they were an extra piece of packaging, the unit I received was previously opened so I can't say with certainty that I received everything that was supposed to be in the box.
