The Nutone BP24 grille is a passive component of your bath fan system. Its primary function is to cover the fan housing and direct airflow. Once installed, no specific operational steps are required for the grille itself. The operation of the bath fan (turning it on/off) is controlled by your existing wall switch or fan control.
