Broan produces some of the most flexible and efficient exhaust fan platforms in the market currently. Dangerous health effects of indoor air pollution continue to be a critical issue—many homeowners have been left searching for whole-house ventilation solutions that are flexible and efficient. This is where Broan comes in. It is a leading manufacturer of indoor air quality solutions that aid in keeping kitchens cleaner, bathrooms fresher, and the whole house healthier. Broan eventually introduced the Flex DC. This happens to be the most flexible and efficient exhaust fan platform currently.
Features and Advantages of the Broan Bathroom Fan
1. The flexible DC motor enables the right-sizing ventilation that is suitable for any room size. This particular unit is quite flexible and compatible with any installation challenges. It gives the user more control over how they prefer the installation of the fan to be done. The snap-fit flange kit that comes with the unit is designed such that it enables the users to choose whether or not to use a flange during the installation of the housing.
There are grille channels in Broan fan units that allow faster installation of the grille and vertical alignment tabs that are located at the corner of the housing. This helps users to be able to space the fan from the joist perfectly especially for drywall without having to open holes for the air to escape.
2. The Broan bathroom fans meet rigorous codes and standards. The Broan fan replacement kit is flexible and compatible with any building tightness limit. Flex DC is usually 50% more airtight than the rest of the standard ventilation systems there are. Its EZDuct connector creates an airtight seal from inside the fan, which in turn ensures that the warm humid air it removes from the room does not leak out into the attic or crawl space at any point in time.
The TrueSeal damper technology is made so that it backdrafts by over 50% as compared to standard fans currently in the market today. This ensures that air from outside does not work its way back inside the home, ultimately saving about 1 full HERs point when using Flex DC.
3. Sone level is normally less than 1.0 at all the CFM speeds. The Flex DC Broan bathroom fan is compliant with the ASHRAE 62.2 requirements. It usually operates at less than 1.0 sone at all operating points. This fan meets each and every whole home mechanical ventilation requirements. It gives the user the ability to select between 50-80-110 CFM, ensuring that no matter how difficult the duct run is, the Flex DC has the power to meet all the performance requirements. This Broan fan has 3X Energy Star requirements, meaning that power consumption will not be an issue.
