Humidity Sensing Fans Effectively Exhaust Moisture, Prevent
Mold Development
Hartford, Wis., May 1, 2009 – The
ADEX (Award
for Design Excellence) award-winning Ultra Silent™ Humidity
Sensing fans from NuTone® help ensure moisture is
effectively exhausted at the source by automatically ridding the home
of excess moisture.
"Featuring Sensaire® technology and models that are ENERGY STAR® qualified,
Ultra Silent Humidity Sensing fans and fan/light/nightlights are the most effective
way to control excess humidity and moisture, even in the most frequently used
bathrooms," according to Patrick Nielsen, marketing manager, ventilation
fans, Broan-NuTone.
According to the EPA,
the key to mold control is moisture control. By installing a humidity
sensing fan in the home, one can protect bathrooms from mold and mildew,
which can result from excess humidity. Once there is a rapid rise in
humidity within the room, the Ultra Silent Humidity fan will automatically
turn on to exhaust excess moisture and turn off once the job is done – ideal
for those who frequently forget to turn on the fan, turn off the fan
or who leave the house before properly venting the damaging, excess humidity.
Designed for easy installation and HVI (Home
Ventilating Institute) -certified for performance claims, the fans
and fan/light/nightlights are UL
Listed for use over bathtubs and showers when connected to a GFCI
protected branch circuit. Two fan/light/nightlight models are available.
The QTXEN110SFLT features
a 42-watt fluorescent bulb, which makes it ENERGY STAR qualified and
California Title 24-compliant; this model operates at just 0.7 Sones.
The QTXN110SL features
a standard 100-watt bulb.
 Unique
features of the NuTone Humidity Sensing Fan include:
- Automatic feature – once there is a rise in humidity within
the room, the fan will automatically turn on to exhaust moisture and
turn off once the job is done
- Sensaire technology – detects a rapid increase in humidity
at the ceiling unlike humidistats which only detect simple humidity
and do so in the lower part of the room
- 110 CFMs, six-inch ducting and a three-year warranty
