Air King BFQ50 Exhaust Fan, 50 CFM

The unique feature of the Air King High-Performance Bath Fan Series is its UL listed molded high impact plastic housing, which offers numerous advantages. Traditional bath fan housings are typically made of steel, requiring bending and welding during the fabrication process. This method is more costly, and over time, the welds can deteriorate, leading to increased noise levels or rattling sounds during operation. Metal housings also tend to amplify and reflect noise. In contrast, the all-plastic housing of the Air King High-Performance Bath Fan Series eliminates the risk of weld breakage and benefits from the natural sound absorption properties of plastic.

For those living near saltwater or using the fan in high-moisture environments, this model is highly recommended. The UL listed molded high impact plastic housing is resistant to rust, extending the lifespan of the unit. The High-Performance Exhaust Fan Series features a convenient snap-in installation system. The included bracket can be easily attached to the ceiling joist using nails or screws, allowing the fan housing to snap into place effortlessly. This simplifies the installation process, enabling users to replace existing fans without the need for extensive ceiling removal or attic climbing. Once the wiring, ducting, and grille are installed, the setup is complete in minutes, rather than hours.

The motors are designed for continuous operation, while the 4-inch plastic duct collar includes a backdraft damper for quiet performance and draft prevention. This energy-efficient model is ENERGY STAR certified, UL listed for use over tubs or showers on GFCI circuits, and operates at 50 CFM at 0.5 sones for minimal noise. Suitable for rooms measuring approximately 50 square feet, the housing dimensions are 9-1/16 inches wide, 8-1/2 inches deep, and 4-3/4 inches high. The white polymeric grill is 10" x 10", and the durable high-impact plastic housing enhances performance and reduces noise levels. With a 5-year limited warranty, this bath fan offers quiet operation and efficient ventilation for a wide range of applications.
