Broan-NuTone is recalling about 450 L500 series ventilation fans because the fan motor can overheat and cause a fire. The fans were sold under nine different brand names including Broan, Twin City Fan, Carnes, Acme, WW Grainger, Captive Aire, American CoolAir, and Solar and Palau. No injuries or incidents have been reported, but consumers should immediately stop using the fans and contact the company for a free replacement.
The fan's motor is prone to overheating during operation, which creates a direct fire hazard within the home or building's ventilation system.
Consumers should immediately turn off and unplug the recalled fans and contact Broan to receive a free replacement fan.
