Duct-Free Bath Fan 682
The Broan-NuTone 682 is a duct-free bathroom ventilation fan designed to eliminate humidity, tobacco smoke and cooking odors where ductwork is impossible. Its compact housing fits between ceiling joists or wall studs, and the plug-in motor with polymeric blower wheel circulates air through a replaceable activated charcoal filter. Torsion-spring grille mounting requires no tools for installation.
Suited for ductless odor control
This unit suits bathrooms or enclosed spaces where true exhaust venting is not required but air circulation and odor removal are needed. The paintable white polymeric grille blends with existing decor and the motor snaps out for tool-free cleaning. Buyers who need code-compliant exhaust ventilation that removes moist air to the exterior should look at ducted alternatives.
Charcoal-filter recirculation decides fit
The single specification that determines suitability is the duct-free, charcoal-filter recirculation design. Because the fan does not exhaust air outside, it cannot meet building codes that mandate moisture removal through ducting. Confirm that local regulations allow recirculating fans for the intended location before purchasing.

Questions about this item
How often will the replaceable activated charcoal filter need changing?
The filter is designed to be replaced periodically; its lifespan depends on humidity, smoke and odour levels in the room.
What limits continuous operation of the permanently lubricated motor?
The motor is permanently lubricated for long life; the practical limit is the filter becoming saturated and reducing airflow.
How much heat or noise does the fan produce when running all day?
The unit is described as whisper-quiet with a plug-in motor; no specific decibel or heat figures are published.
