  • Switch for Nutone 8490 Bathroom fan

    Hello,

    I am trying to replace a wall switch for a Nutone 8490 bathroom fan. The fan itself works & looks great. The switch (VS-61 - original as far as I can tell) works; but looks horrible and I would like to replace it.

    The switch is integrated with the wallplate, and offers 3 speeds. If possible, I would like to find a replacement that would fit behind a traditional switchplate.

    Whomever put this fan in (before I bought the house), added a single-gangbox next to a double-gangbox. The result looks horrible - a triple-gang switchplate won't fit. I would gladly loose the ability to control speeds to change down to a single double-gang box (light & fan on the same switch with the shower light on the second switch)

    I can't find the VS-61 anywhere, and I don't know enough about fans to know what to look for.

    Can anyone help me tell me if what I would like to do is possible and understand what to look for?

    Thanks!!

    Arron
