![DIY UTILITEC Bathroom Vent Fan Heater w/Light Install and Removal of Old Ceiling Fan [UTILITEC Fan]](/img/n.gif)
Thanks. Your video helped save me $300 bucks on labor and parts. I just needed to see how to replace the motor and fan, and your video made me realize buying the whole thing was cheaper than buying just the part, then taking the part out I need. And that replacing the part was just as simple as plugging in the existing plug and screwing it back in place.
I am so new to fixing things myself. But in a month that I bought my home, I've learned how to fix and problem solve electric items like switches and outlets, replace and redo plumbing and fixtures, mount TVs, build a bunch of furniture, diy sprinklers and drip irrigation, and now I'm able to put in a new fan and motor into my bathroom exhaust. You youtubers are heroes to me. Cuz while I'm happy to pay other people to do everything, no one in Washington can help me because it's the summer and all the contractors are too busy to even come out within a month's time. I felt utterly helpless, but I guess what came out of it is learning how to do everything.
I am glad i could help, thanks for watching.
You need to use insulated ducts in unconditioned space. That's why the moisture is getting in the fan. The warm, moist air instantly turns to water when it hits the cold duct in the attic.
*Works amazingly **Fastly.Cool** . I love all the features and the double expansion. For once a fan is almost as tall as my window. Updated but not overly fancy.*
Thanks for the video.
It must be very satisfying to be able to do such professional work without needing to get an electrician in like I do.
Did my cutout this weekend for a new install heat lamp. This video helped me understand how the brackets should mount to the joists in the attic. Thank you for such a quality video, sir.
Glad I could help, thanks for watching.
By Far, The Most Helpful Video I've come across pertaining to this project. Our old fan went out a while back, and I was able to purchase and replace the fan assembly Thanks To You!
Glad I could help.
I Have a Same one In the Bathroom at My Appointment In Marshfield WI.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you, I live in MI as well and when we moved up north the new house did not have one of these gems. We miss it so your video was a huge help in installing one, thank you.
Nice installation. I like heat lamps in the bathroom for when you step out of the shower. One thing I'd like to add, is for safety reasons, a heat lamp should never be installed directly over a shower curtain rod or in the path of a swinging door, since a heat lamp could ignite towels or clothes hung over the rod or door, and as an added precaution, a heat lamp should be controlled by a timer switch in case someone forgets to turn it off.
This helps. Trying to replace a Broan Model 162 without attic access. At least now I know what it looks like from the other side. Unfortunately I have blown in insulation which will be falling on me the entire time I'm working.
Not alot you can do about the insulation, glad I could help. If you have any questions feel free to reach out to me. Thanks for watching.
Need to use insulated duct. That will stop moisture from killing your new vent.
My mom like the fan and lights and heat up the bathroom.
When I installed my heat lamp/exhaust fan box to match the exhaust vent, the wiring was into the opposite side making the incoming power lines too short. I'm now looking at how to extend and I suspect that means adding a box to a stud and then sending a new section into the vent box. Nice video.
Adding a junction box is the correct way to do it. Thanks for watching!
One minor point is. That looks like aluminum wire in the fan and probably copper in that 12/2 yellow wire. When in contact you should put some anti oxidation paste on the wires before putting on wing nuts.
It was braided copper wire with some solider on it to keep it from fraying. Just the same probably wouldn't hurt to use some anti oxidation paste. Thanks for pointing that out and thanks for watching.
Great video work! This was very helpful. Thanks!
Thanks for watching.
Thanks for the video. Any thoughts on how to use it in the summer when you want the fan but don't want the heat lamp? Can you use a standard bulb in the fixture?
You can use a standard bulb, that is what I do. Thanks for watching.
@@detroitdiy Thanks!
Oooh, I didn't think of that. Nice. Thanks.
Mine's a lil different , doesn't have lamp but coils ..but hardware attaching it probably the same . the wiring not sure . It's by broan . Might see if Broan has video on this .. Wiring is one of the most concerning to me . Thanks any help be appreciated
Excellent
Thanks for watching.
Do you put insulation around the box up in the attic side? I assume this gets hot. I dint have a fan in mine, it’s just the heat lamp so want to be sure I don’t start a fire. 😉
I did put insulation around the box, the heat is really no different than a standard fan above the ceiling.
Can this be on the same single switch
What did you do with the extra wires blue and red wire in the box
I have one of these fans with heat light in my condo bathroom. My old fan made a lot of noise and it died today. Iam glad I can find a replacement for it. are these new fans quiet??
They are medium on the noise level of bath fans. Thanks for watching.
I have one in my house. The motor was slow and not working and I vacuumed it and it’s loud not and not great. Can I replace the motor with this set up easily?
To be honest i have never replaced just the motor. Not sure how difficult or easy that may be.
The light fixture part gets its power from a plug and that's the problem since I took it off and plugged it into another plug and light works . Wish I could just change the plug on the fixture . But other function the heating part also not working . I havent taken that off and tested that . Just the air exhaust works . Don't know if anyone sells them and then I'd, just splice it in voila ( I think ) . OR since it's at least twenty years old just replace the whole thing ? Will at least look around my low attic check it out ..
The older stuff is hard to find if it can be found at all, thanks for watching.
@@detroitdiy Just decided to replace it with broan fixture the model 655 . I thought that it'd be perfect but when I attached the light it didn't work . The heater and air fan worked and I thought that light should work right ? Nope . Going to take it down and check on those wire nut conections . Maybe they got loose since I was having some trouble with getting those wires together with wire nut ..
I have no access to the attic, but I could snake a wire from a nearby light and use the same switch for both, but I want to use a switch that has a timer and turns itself off. Why use a lot of current when nobody is using the bath.
Sounds like drywall repair to get what you want. I have some great videos on drywall repair coming out over the next couple of weeks. Thanks for watching.
with these types of light/extractor fans, doesnt it mean heaps of dust and moisture will build up around the back of the light?
That is a good question, yes it does. Needs to be cleaned out about every 6 months.
Is this exhaust fan strong? Our cabin bathroom is small and needs strong exhaust but heat too..?
I do not remember the exact CFM of the fan. However it is stong. I can feel cooler air being sucked in at the bottom of the door.
Great video! Do you have a link to the replacement so that I can look up whether it fit mine as well?

This is the fan I purchased, Thanks for watching.
Where did you find the new fan?
I ordered it on Amazon.
I am putting a new fan in place of this one. Can I remove it without going into attic?
Maybe, depends on the style used. They make some that are used for spaces with no attic. Such as a 2 story home with a bathroom on the first floor.
@@detroitdiy this is on the second story. I am putting in housing that is a couple inches larger in length and width, so I’m hoping I can finagle it out of the ceiling.
So is the fan blowing in heat or sucking out
The fan sucks the moisture out and the bulb creates the heat.
Working on our old home and would love to do this myself. Thanks a bunch Jim! New subscriber here (●’◡’●)ﾉ I have many projects.. House jacks to install, fixing 100 year old wooden floors, taking out kitchen wall, putting in a wooden bar area.. So much more 🤦♀️ Lord help me
Sounds like you have your hands full. Always feel free to reach out to me with any questions. Thanks for watching.
