Improve air quality throughout thehome—automatically and efficiently.

Broan Ultra Silentventilation fans that once worked independently now work together as an integrated ventilation system in the Broan SmartSense® Intelligent Ventilation System. Because these fans ventilate from different locations, you’re assured of ongoing fresh air distribution throughout the home.

Why do I need to ventilate all day?

Proper ventilation exhausts stale indoor air and minimizes opportunities for mold and mildew growth. It also helps remove gases and particles not trapped by any filtration unit. With Broan SmartSense,® you get an automatic ventilation solution that minimizes the presence of pollutants such as household cleaners, VOCs, carbon monoxide and off-gassing from building materials, carpets and other furnishings.

Broan SmartSense® meets intermittent and continuous ventilation requirements of ASHRAE* 62 and other related guidelines (including building codes derived from the ASHRAE standard).

How does it work?

The Broan SmartSense® system continually monitors and activates Broan Ultra Silentfans day and night, cycling them throughout the home to distribute fresh air. Broan Ultra Silentfans operate at a barely audible

0.3and 0.7 sones, so they are ideal for any area of the home that might require additional ventilation. Even in a bedroom in the middle of the night, you’ll never know they’re running.

Installs as easily as an exhaust fan.

Simply recess the fan housing in the ceiling, vent with 6" duct to the exterior of the home and connect the power wires. No control wiring is necessary. After installation, program the controls to match the size of the home.

An economic alternative to other systems.

Broan SmartSense® utilizes exhaust ventilation fans normally installed in the home and automatically adjusts the total run-time based on square footage and number of bedrooms. Broan SmartSense® controls monitor normal manual fan operation, and adjust ventilation time as needed to optimize energy usage. Broan SmartSense® is more cost effective and energy efficient than other ventilation strategies such as

supply side systems that require the use of the home’s air handler. Because only one fan is running at a time, Broan SmartSense® uses less than 40 watts during ventilation cycles.

Broan SmartSense® meets intermittent and whole-building ventilation requirements of green building programs such as Leadership in Energy Efficient Design (LEED), NAHB Green Building Guidelines and ENERGY STAR Indoor Air Package.

SmartSense specifications

Broan SmartSense is an innovative residential ventilation control system designed to enhance indoor air quality while optimizing energy efficiency. This advanced product is part of Broan's commitment to creating smart and sustainable home environments. With the rise in awareness regarding the importance of proper ventilation, SmartSense offers a solution that intelligently manages air flow based on real-time conditions.

One of the standout features of Broan SmartSense is its integrated sensor technology. The system is equipped with humidity, temperature, and occupancy sensors that constantly monitor the indoor environment. By analyzing data from these sensors, SmartSense can automatically adjust ventilation rates to ensure optimal air quality without wasting energy. When excess humidity is detected, for instance, the system increases exhaust airflow, helping to prevent mold growth and other moisture-related issues.

Installation flexibility is another key characteristic of the SmartSense system. It can be easily integrated into new home constructions or retrofitted into existing ventilation systems. This versatility makes it an ideal choice for homeowners looking to upgrade their air quality management without extensive renovations. The system is compatible with a wide range of Broan ventilation products, further enhancing its adaptability.

In addition to its smart functionality, the Broan SmartSense system features user-friendly controls. Homeowners can access and manage ventilation settings through a convenient app, allowing for remote operation and monitoring. This level of control empowers users to maintain ideal indoor conditions effortlessly, whether they are at home or away.

Energy efficiency is a hallmark of the SmartSense system. By ensuring that ventilation operates only when necessary, energy consumption is minimized, leading to lower utility bills. The intelligent design also helps to extend the life of ventilation equipment by reducing wear and tear from constant operation.

In summary, Broan SmartSense represents a leap forward in residential ventilation technology. With its advanced sensor capabilities, user-friendly app controls, installation flexibility, and focus on energy efficiency, SmartSense is an excellent choice for homeowners seeking to improve indoor air quality while being mindful of energy use. By integrating cutting-edge technology with practical solutions, Broan helps create healthier, more comfortable living spaces.
