Great video! I have done a couple or three in two previous homes-needed a refresher course! Wish the studs were exposed for my upcoming “helping my son” in his bathroom-no existing fan but at least the attic is accessible😃and glad it is not a cathedral ceiling!
Just wanted to say thank you for the video. Sometimes, after my journey with brain cancer 3 years ago, I need a jump start on some projects to clarify my work. Keep it up.
Thank you so so much. I wish i could like the video twice. I’m renovating an entire home top to bottom by myself and your video is a massive help cos I bought this same bathroom fan
Excellent Ron, thank you for taking the time to do this, especially adding tips! I need to replace this like for like due to excessive noise/wear etc. Does the fan portion come out without removing the mounting box? I already watched your video to do the other parts on this fan.
Thanks Colin. I appreciate you watching and commenting. Yes, the internals can be swapped out rather quickly if you have the same model of exhaust fan/light combo.
Great video by the way, well done. What if the existing wire only has black, white and ground? But the new fan has black, blue and two white ones. What do I do?
Hey Roland, thanks for watching. It sounds like you only have one switch coming into the bathroom =One switch leg at the light/fan location. This will in able both the fan and light to come on together. If so, you'll need to connect blue and black to the switch leg and the neutrals tied together. I hope that helps you.
Thanks for watching and commenting. That's a good question. (Make sure the power is off to begin)? You only need a 14-2 feeding the fan/light combo if it's wired on (15 amp circuit) ??? 1)Wire the ground as usual. (Green or bare copper wire) to fan's housing (green screw). 2)Wire both the fan & light's neutrals (white wires) together with the house neutral 3)Wire the fan's (black wire) & the light's (blue wire) to the house switched hot (black wire)to complete. Let me know if you have any more questions. Glad to help.

Make sure whoever watches this guy make sure you don’t use that slinky uninsulated hose unless you live in a hot climate. Make sure to use insulated flexible Duct R8 Silver jacket some places will tell you R6 Suitable or enough But you will get all right spend the extra $10 and be safe never know we do get some cold winters especially if you live in the north. Everything else in this video looks good on the inside of the house. He doesn’t show on how to hook it up on the outside of the house.
Hey Mac. Thanks for watching. If your wiring with two conductors such as a 14-2 or 12-2 you would have to wire both blue and black from the light & fan to the black switch leg. And both white wires to the white wire that feeds it. I hope that answers your question.
Thanks for watching and commenting. If you have two NM wires going to an exhaust fan? You'll be hard pressed to getting them to fit in that fan's junction box. It's sounds like you have a feed and a switch leg at this location? Open the switch location will help in determining this if only one wire is present 2 conductor+ground. But you'll need to confirm that. Its kinda hard for me to see the obstacles you have in your situation. But if my thoughts are correct, your old fixture aka=exhaust fan/light were switched together. If you choose to separate them? I would suggest you extend the feed to the switch location and run a new 3 conductor+ground feeder to this fixture. 14-3 or 12-3 NM to match the wire size in your circuit. I hope this helps you.
Hey John, I feel you pain. The store should make it right for you. I've had this happen to me before. I normally inspect the content if the box has been retaped in the store. The parts are always getting stolen from the boxes. Thanks for watching 👍
Hey Justin, I ran a 14-3 ro-max wire so the light and fan would be switched separately. The manufacturer chooses the colors of wire, they wire the fixture's outlets with. I hope that answers your questions. Let me know ?

Man I have watch 1000’s of how to videos over the last ten years and you actually show things I have never seen.
Great info, very detailed
Love the zip tie in the belt loop idea.
Thanks for watching John, I do too. Saves on the butter fingers 🤣 from me dropping them all in the floor.

God bless you my brother in Christ 🙏.
Best video I've seen, I'm currently mounting a similar model for the 1st time as a DIY'er. God bless brotha.
Thank you so so much. I wish i could like the video twice. I’m renovating an entire home top to bottom by myself and your video is a massive help cos I bought this same bathroom fan

An excellent video. Far better than the video from Broan ( which isn’t worth jack).
Thanks for watching and the compliment ❤️
Fantastic video, glad you dropped the little nut, proves your a human like me! Lot of experience to make this video look so simple Thanks.
Thank you Tracy for the compliment ❤️ and watching. I greatly appreciate it 👍
Thank you! Tackling this project today.
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍🏻. I glad the video held you!
Love the video. One pet peeve though... there is no 3rd H in the word height. It's Width and Height, rhymes with right. 😉
Very helpful. Thank you.

Thank you very much for your help, it really help me, is always good to find professional people like you.
How do I get the light and fan to cut on with the same switch? Thanks
Thanks for watching and commenting. That's a good question. (Make sure the power is off to begin)?
You only need a 14-2 feeding the fan/light combo if it's wired on (15 amp circuit) ???
1)Wire the ground as usual. (Green or bare copper wire) to fan's housing (green screw).
2)Wire both the fan & light's neutrals
(white wires) together with the house neutral
3)Wire the fan's
(black wire) & the light's
(blue wire) to the house switched hot (black wire)to complete.
Let me know if you have any more questions. Glad to help.
Wish you had the install video for the trim -I got the same vent and can’t figure out how to mount the damn trim kit
Thanks for watching Nathaniel 👍👍. Installing trim on the Broan 678 exhaust fan & light combo is on another video on my channel.
Do you have a link for the part that connects the house to the outside of the house ? I’m connecting mine to the outside wall not the roof

Thanks for watching and commenting. Your right. Lots of good points to base another fan install for colder climates.
👏👏👏👏
If there's only 2 wire do 8 just connect the blue to the hot.

My wires only have a black white and ground. And there are 2 of them. How would I wire it?

I got the same kit but did not come to connector to attach hose to box. (Black plastic piece)

What the hell is the red wire in your Romex there? What’s up with the blue wire coming from the fan? There is two whites a black and a blue

@@workingmanrondoyle3287 ok thanks 😎
You're prettier than the fan
20:35 where can i buy that black wire clamp and what size is it for this exact model?
