Once installed over the oven, does this replace the oven hood exhaust (suck-em-up) fan?

Yes it does. Mine is against an outside wall, and we were able to switch the ventilation function so instead of recirculating the air, it is actually thrown outside the house. It increased my countertop space tremendously. Hope this answer helps you. (we bought this one because it has the best rating on Consumer reports).

The exhaust can be configured to the existing exhaust if there is one. It can also be configured without an exhaust. Easy to convert.

yes, the hood has to be removed and this microwave goes in its place. Uses the hoods ducting to blow to the outside, but uses its own mounting system.

Yes if it fits in the space properly. I believe this one can be configured to vent to the outside of the home or just back into your kitchen, depending on what the configuration of your current fan is like. Ours doesn't vent to outside of home so we just set it to recirculate.

No. It just pullouts of the grill hood. Then you push the new one into the hole.

Not sure. Entire fan was cheap enough to just replace fan compared to Lowes price which was double!!!

Yes it does, exhaust is fine, due to weather here we havent really had a chance to rate the heat output other to say it works. Check back in December.

It comes as a complete replacement This an OEM part. Super easy install, one screw to remove from your fan, unit tilts down and out. Just plug it in.

Yes, but the clicking sound of the timer is too loud for me and the fan operation seems to pulse with the clicks of the timer.I was NOT happy with this installed and returned it.

Not a vent in the sense of functioning as an exhaust for a cooktop below. It is in a vacation home and I have not seen it for months -- so I am not sure if it exhausts smells from inside the oven, but I do not think so.Additional note is that I do not love the data entry pad -- not as good as the much older GE it replaced. But aside from that, the units has functioned reliably.

I replaced a fan/light of different type without needing my attic access. Check the dimensions of the Broan and the dimensions of your old fan. Also compare the size of your existing exhaust pipe with the Broan.

Yes, the fan is pretty loud. I don't mind it because I have the oven on a stand in my basement and use it as a supplemental oven.

Not sure what you mean by a vent fan but it does not vent like a range hood. It does however apparently draw air in through the rear and exhaust it out the front. There's a grille area in the front below the door opening about 1" high and extends from left to right across the front of the unit. Air is pushed out there. I read somewhere in previous GE units the air was vented in the rear and may have overheated the unit or at least shortened the life of the mechanical components especially if it was housed in an enclosed space. This unit is about 1 " or so higher than the units it replaced. Not sure what you mean by a vent fan but it does not vent like a range hood.

That isn't exactly the fan. That is the shroud that covers the fan and has the slots for the air to circulate. It is raised about 1/2 inch from the back wall. I have had this oven for about 3 years now and just baked bread yesterday. Still working great.

Thank you for the inquiry. Sorry but this will not work as a replacement for your 509 vent fan

What I did was I looked on line for the actual part from the owners manual and it worked for my oven but mine is a frigid are. If your part looks like this one it probably is just make sure you are getting the correct one you need ie the top of the over vs the bottom one

No, This particular piece mounts to the top of the exhaust hood. It only redirects the filtered air back out through the louvers in the picture. The exhaust hood does need and an outlet though.

I'm sorry but I'm really not sure. It's been awhile since the fan was installed. Your best bet is to check with the manufacturer.

Yes. Installed it in the basement, ran the exhaust pipe through the external wall few inches above ground, then outside along the chimney all the way to the top.

No it did not. It came with a screw-on cap. There's a hole in the center of the grille for the threaded piece on the fan. The cap screws on to that. ( I had to order this for a very old, discontinued exhaust fan that was not a Nutone but I needed the center hole. Someone had tossed out the old grille but left the original cap behind. The new cap was too small for my thread and the old cap needed a bigger hole, so I made the hole wider and used the old cap.)
