I live in Toronto, Canada. I ran into similar trouble when the fan in one
of my washroom died. It was an AIRA VSB-X50. There was no replacement
available in HOME DEPOT, LOWES or RONA to fit the original size. I got a
suppossedly compatibale NUTONE unit at HOME HARDWARE but eventually found
out that it did not fit. In the mean time, I was able to remove the
original fan-motor assembly. When I went to return the NUTONE unit at the
local outlet of HOME HARDWARE, I had the original dead item with me. The
salesman took notice of that and suggested that he can give me exactly
that. Some of the stuff they carry are not always listed online. The
item he gave me is a nameless generic stuff but identical to the original
thing. Eventually I found out another location where replacement
fan-motor assemblies of AIRA VSB models are available. Depending on where
you live, there might be some home improvement or hardware store which
will carry the replacement. You probably need to keep looking for it.
