It gives off heat but doesn't feel like it's 90 degrees in the bathroom! Review: Love it - I always liked the heat lamps in hotel bathrooms, so I thought I would try one in my house. I love this thing, it makes the bathroom far more comfortable on cold mornings. The fan seems to work well and is not very loud. I installed a timer switch with my heat lamp for safety's sake. You will need to spend some time in your attic to install this, which can be pretty awful on a hot day, especially if you have fiberglass blown insulation in your attic. Some basic knowledge of electrical will be necessary to safely install this. I was able to install mine without hiring an electrician or HVAC worker, but it would have been a lot easier if I had just paid someone else to work in my miserable attic. ## Features - HIGH-QUALITY HEATER AND FAN COMBO: Heater and fan combo provides instant comfort to your bathroom without turning up the central thermostat for money-saving warmth - ENERGY-EFFICIENT: Heats using a 250-Watt R40 or BR40 Infrared bulb (not included) - EFFICIENT: Ventilation fan operates at 70 CFM and 4.0 Sones for a high-quality, quiet performance - DISCREET: Type IC (Insulation Contact) unit is installed into your ceiling so all but the bulbs and white grille shows in your room for a clean and cohesive appearance - EASY INSTALLATION: Sturdy steel housing, adjustable mounting brackets with keyhole slots, plug-in permanently lubricated motor, and 4" round duct connector with tapered sleeves make installation logical and simple - 70 CFM and 3.5-Sones - Attractive white grille - One bulb Heater and fan ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000K2EG1C | | Amperage | 2.5 Amps | | Best Sellers Rank | #81,212 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #69 in Heaters & Heater Accessories | | Brand Name | Broan-NuTone | | Color | White | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (827) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00026715002627 | | Heat Output | 250 Watts | | Heating Element | Radiant | | Heating Method | Radiant, radiant & infrared | | Included Components | No Other Items Included | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Indoor | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 10.25"D x 10.25"W x 0.88"H | | Item Type Name | Type IC Infrared Single-Bulb Ceiling Heater with Fan | | Item Weight | 7 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Broan | | Model Number | 162 | | Mounting Type | Ceiling Mount | | Part Number | 162 | | Power Source | AC | | Room Type | Bathroom | | Special Features | HeaterHeater | | UPC | 094701188082 026715002627 026715001620 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Voltage | 120 Volts | | Warranty Description | 1 year. | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Broan-NuTone - **Color:** White - **Indoor/Outdoor Usage:** Indoor - **Power Source:** AC - **Special Feature:** HeaterHeater ## Images ![Broan-NuTone 162 Type IC Infrared Single-Bulb Ceiling Heater with Fan, 1, White - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61uJh9y8zVL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Edition** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: I have an old nutone 9417d that died... is this an exact replacement?** A: The housing dimensions are the same, but the internal parts are different. You would still remove the old one and do a complete replacement. **Q: What is the difference between this model and the 9417dn? my the light portion of my 9417dn died, so this would be a swap out.** A: Don't know. But the most likely reason that the light 'died' is a thermal fuse in the neutral of the pigtail. It's a little tricky to replace, but probably easier than the whole fixture. **Q: this fan has sone level at 4.0 on box, how can i lower it, can i insulate with approved liner?, on the inside, no glue just stick pins** A: The sone rating is 4.0. We only recommend the installation as shown in the instructions. You may want to contact our Technical Support Department at 888-336-6151. **Q: Dear broan, why is the fan dependant on the bulb to operate? never seen wiring like this before. (no need to reply if you are not from broan)** A: i HAVE INSTALLED MAYBE A DOZEN OF THESE OVER THE YEARS. You can have tle light controlled separately from the switch if you want and have the ability. The thing is if you turn the light on and the unit gets hot, the fan will turn on by itself. The last one I installed, I have the light and thw switch on the same circuit. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Installed by husband and son in an hour! *by N***E on November 2, 2025* It's not that loud!

I’ve included pictures of what the previous model looks like. Our ceiling has tile (previous owner) and so getting a bigger fan was going to require us to make a bigger hole in the ceiling and create a big mess. Because of the ceiling situation we decided to go with this models that would be a perfect fit. We purchased an open box and it was extremely reasonably priced ($30) and came with all the needed screws and materials. Just a friendly reminder to make sure you have a heated bulb for this and that you have electrician tape to make sure you are sealing Edges in the ducks. Also, we did not have attic access if that’s helpful. We were able to install it from inside the home. ## Frequently Bought Together - Broan-NuTone 162 Type IC Infrared Single-Bulb Ceiling Heater with Fan, 1, White - Phillips BR40 Heat Lamp Lightbulb, 250W, Infrared - Broan-NuTone 164 Type IC Infrared Two-Bulb Ceiling Heater with Fan, 250 Watt, White --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/8964465-broan-nutone-162-type-ic-infrared-single-bulb-ceiling-heater](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/8964465-broan-nutone-162-type-ic-infrared-single-bulb-ceiling-heater) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-30*
