The Broan-NuTone AE50 Ventilation Fan is a compact, high-performance exhaust fan designed to provide effective ventilation in small to medium-sized rooms. Whether you're installing it in a bathroom, laundry room, or other enclosed spaces, this fan helps to maintain air quality by removing excess moisture, odors, and pollutants, while also being ENERGY STAR Certified for energy efficiency. Here's a detailed breakdown of its features:

Key Features:
1. Roomside Installation
One of the standout features of the AE50 is its roomside installation design, meaning you can install it without having to access the attic. This simplifies the installation process and reduces the need for cutting or making adjustments to the ceiling or wall.
The fan can be easily mounted either on the ceiling or on the wall, providing flexible installation options depending on your space and preferences.
2. Quiet Operation (0.5 Sones)
The AE50 operates at a low noise level of just 0.5 sones, which is incredibly quiet for an exhaust fan. At this level, it provides effective ventilation without causing disruptive noise in your space.
A low sone rating ensures that the fan works efficiently to remove moisture or odors without disturbing the comfort or tranquility of the room.
3. Efficient Airflow (50 CFM)
The 50 CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute) rating indicates the amount of air the fan moves per minute. With 50 CFM, the AE50 is suitable for small to medium-sized rooms, typically up to 45 square feet (like a standard bathroom or small laundry room).
This airflow rate helps reduce humidity and prevent issues like mold and mildew in moisture-prone areas, as well as freshen up the air by removing odors.
4. ENERGY STAR Certified
The Broan-NuTone AE50 is ENERGY STAR Certified, meaning it meets strict energy efficiency guidelines set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
This ensures the fan uses less energy to operate, helping homeowners save on energy costs while contributing to a more sustainable and environmentally friendly home.
ENERGY STAR certification makes it a great choice for those looking to reduce their environmental footprint without compromising on performance.
5. Compact, Modern Design
The fan features a sleek, white, low-profile grille that blends seamlessly with most bathroom or laundry room ceilings and walls. Its modern, unobtrusive design makes it an ideal choice for areas where aesthetics are important.
The compact design allows for easy integration into tight spaces without drawing attention away from the room’s décor.
6. Easy Maintenance
The AE50 fan is designed for easy cleaning and maintenance. The grille can be removed and cleaned easily, ensuring the fan continues to operate at peak performance for years to come.
Regular maintenance, such as cleaning the grille and inspecting the fan for dust build-up, helps prolong its lifespan and maintain quiet operation.
7. Durability
Built with durable materials, the Broan-NuTone AE50 fan is designed to withstand frequent use and maintain reliability over time. The construction ensures the fan operates effectively, even in high-humidity areas like bathrooms.
8. Versatile Mounting Options
The fan is suitable for ceiling or wall mounting, giving you the flexibility to install it in the most convenient location for your room layout. This makes the AE50 versatile for a variety of applications, whether you are installing it above a shower, near a sink, or in a laundry area.
