The PurePower PP5501 power unit combines powerful suction and self-cleaning filtration, to remove dust and other allergens from your home. It features a sleek design that can fit into small spaces like an apartment, condominium or home 1,000 to 4,000 square feet. This compact unit is small enough to fit in a laundry room or even a closet. The PP5501 operates quietly and is virtually silent when vacuuming if it is installed in a basement or garage. With better filtration, you won’t be spreading the dust around -- because microscopic dust particles are exhausted to the exterior of your home.

Replacement for Nutone Model CV-353?
Bought this to replace Nutone Model CV-353 installed circa 1987. On a positive note, the new unit is much quieter than 30 year old unit it replaced. Gave 3 stars because this model is supposed to be the replacement to the replacement for the CV-353 - yet the suction inlet did not line up between the new and old units. Installing this new unit required me buying and installing PVC fittings and tubing to "re-plumb" to the the new unit. Why move the lines? Not a huge deal if you are modestly handy, but for a many folks, re-plumbing this by themselves will be a bridge too far. Also, be forewarned that the fittings and tube are special vacuum tubing and not compatible with plumbing PVC tubes/fittings. They vacuum PVC and fittings are not easy to find locally - you will likely need to order them online...

Dead in 4 mo. & called Nutone, 30 min hold time, twice! On third repair service company. no yet.
Our CV-353 started loosing power and it was well over 20 years old, so we decided to replace it. It wasn't much to change out, thanks to Nutone, the support screw holes on the old one were the same for mounting the bracket on the new one. There is a little pipe work, so order what you need First! The suction is better than when the 353 was new. Turned it on and heard something come thru the piping into the unit. It was a dryer sheet and misc dog hair, the cause of our reduced suction on the old one. The Vac in my shop just got upgraded, the old one has a new life.I have noticed the exhaust piping gets a little warm after running for a while. Did not go HEPA filtration since it is exhausted outside. Now I have two working Nutone units! By the way I had checked the piping before my purchase and could not find any blockages, but the new one cleared it!

Much Quieter Replacement for Older Nutone Unit
This unit replaced a nine-year-old VX475 that was on its second motor. This 6501 is much quieter than the old unit. Amazon gets zero stars for shipping. The box it comes in has thin walls and almost no protection. See the attached photo. The mounting bracket was bent and gave up its life to protect the unit. Fortunately our existing wall bracket was identical so I didn't need it. I am hoping Nutone improved their reliability and maybe the warranty reflects that (8 years parts, 5 years labor). I had to extend the plastic pipe which I got from a local dealer. Be advised the the Nutone 2 inch, outside diameter pipe is NOT the same as the typical schedule 40 PVC pipe at your local home improvement store. Thanks.

Powerful, quiet and easy to install
I'm so glad we decided to change out our old unit and upgraded to this. My husband installed himself, the tricky part was the PVC is a unique size, it had to be ordered specifically for this unit otherwise it was no problem. I love the power, we love how quiet it is.I suspected our old Nutone unit wasn't doing as well as I had remembered when we built the house 17 years ago so we upgraded, had I any idea how much better this new, powerful unit would be we would have done this a year ago.
