Hi, my house is 50 years old. Above the oven on the ceiling is an
exhaust fan. It is round, about the size of a medium pizza. and it's
broken.

Does anyone know if they still make those type of stove exhaust fans
anymore? I went to Lowes and Home Depot and couldn't find one. No one
there seemed to know if they are still being made. All they had were the
newer wide big built-in type of exhausts that I don't need. I was
thinking why couldn't I install one of those bathroom ceiling exhausts?
Wouldn't that basically do the same thing?

You might find just the motor at a local hardware store and replace
it.

Sure they do, all kinds of sizes and shapes used
by businesses! If you want a more complete range
of sizes and shapes go to an electrical supply place.

A bathroom exhaust type would be ok but you might
want to get one that is all metal, no plastic.

Oh gosh no! It is the most gawd-awful looking exhaust fan that was ever
invented! I'm so glad to get to see it go! :-)
