GEAIN S97014212 Light Reflector with Socket for Broan NuTone Fans – Fits 763N HB80RL 678/679 & More

When your bathroom ceiling light stops lighting while the fan continues to operate, the GEAIN S97014212 Light Reflector with Socket offers a practical, low-disruption upgrade. Rather than replacing the entire exhaust fan, this focused assembly aims to restore daylight-like illumination by renewing the light path through the grill and socket.

Designed to sit on the grill and motor mounting bracket, the reflector measures about 7 inches by 8 inches, providing a direct-fit profile for many Broan NuTone ventilation fans. The upgrade leverages a high-temperature resistant material, helping the part endure bathroom humidity and heat for longer service life.

Compatibility matters, and this reflector has you covered with a broad part-number reach. It replaces several older versions and is designed to fit a wide range of models, including popular 655-C, 656-B, 657-C, 679-series, 763, and beyond. This makes it a convenient, DIY-friendly option for homeowners or maintenance staff.

What you get with the S97014212 is a streamlined light assembly that can be swapped in quickly when the ceiling light is dim or out, while the fan itself remains intact. This approach can save time and cost, reducing the typical disruption of a full fan replacement. If you want brighter, more reliable lighting in a tight ceiling space, this reflector and socket can be a practical enhancement.
