Re: Nutone bathroom fan

No kinks? Louvers opening correctly? Damper in fan opening correctly?

Do I have to pull the housing down to check the damper? Maybe that's where I hear the rattle from?

Not sure what it takes on your fan to get to the damper but I would recommend checking it.

Diagrams are in the PDF spec sheet and installation manual at this link:

»www.nutone.com/products/ ··· overview

Based upon the diagram, it looks like the damper is enclosed in plastic housing that clips to the exterior surface of the metal frame. If the o.p. has access from the attic, it will be be easy to pop it off and check it. If no attic access, then it might be possible to see from the interior of the box, but I can't tell from the diagrams.
