Broan-NuTone FG701S Universal CleanCover Bathroom Exhaust Upgrade Grille Cover, White Bath Fan

The grill cover is designed to be held in place by two spring clips. One spring clip on either side of the grill cover. The opposite ends of these spring clips are meant to be inserted into two slots in the motor housing. It is a simple and effective design. But good luck trying to insert those two spring clips into the slots in the motor housing. It is almost impossible to do. You'd need hands and arms the size of a 5 year old child to accomplish the task. There is just not enough room to work. But I found an easy solution ... long, needle nose pliers. Here's how. Place the first spring clip into the intended slot in the motor housing by hand. That is easy to do because you have enough room to work. It is the second spring clip that is difficult to place. Use your needle nose pliers to insert the second spring clip into the slot in the motor housing .... one leg at a time. One leg at a time is the secret. Presto! the job is done. The new cover sleek and low profile. It looks much better than the old cover.

The product is big but the measurements were in the description, so I was aware. The instructions, believe it or not, are important here. If you are like me and think you've got it, please save yourself and read them. I was replacing an old Broan fan cover. The kind that gets full of lint and dust. That one was always easy to replace, but this one had my swearing. It could be that our fan box is set up too high, so keep that in mind. When I finally got it up and declared it is never coming back down, I stepped back and admired the sleek design. Sure it is big, but it looks neat and will be easy to clean the accumulated dust on the inside with a little compressed air. Even in my tiny bathroom it looks fine. Better than the old, smaller one.

Easy to install and it fit 2 different size of fans. Instantly elevated the look.

Used this to replace a cover in an older bathroom fan light. The fan went out, so I replaced it with a new fan unit (just the motor and blades). Replaced the old ugly broken cover with this large universal cover. Wow, what an improvement!! Looks nice, easy to install. Does not affect functionality of fan. White color goes with any scheme. Breathes new life into an older style fan! Highly recommend thus item!

I knew the dimensions of this thing going in, but it just looks ginormous upon installation. I feel like it’s onerous presence when I look up. I have a typical Broan bathroom fan that I replaced using the bathroom fan Upgrade kit QK60. I didn’t like the cover for that so I got this instead. This one definitely looks better, and because the holes are smaller, I actually think it might be a smidge quieter. I’m reading reviews that others have written and ppl are saving this cover is easier to wipe and clean. Wow, am I just out of the loop? I’ve never heard of anyone routinely wiping down their bathroom fan cover. The plain plastic white color doesn’t suit me. I really want to paint it so that it looks like it blends in better with the rest of the room. Not a bad value or bad product. The product comes with different sized springs. There are also 2 different sets of clips on the inside for 2 different sized holes. I used the smaller one and it was ok. Was it a pain trying to get the clips in? Yes, but it just took some perseverance and creativity. It’s definitely doable, but I can see how some would struggle. It’s really not that big a deal.
