Servicing a NuTone 8 Note Long Tube Chime Base

People love their NuTone Door Chimes

I get lots of call from people who just love their NuTone Door Chimes.  The common thread in these conversations always has something to do with how they acquired their NuTone Chime.  Often it was a gift when a new home was built or purchased, or a wedding or anniversary gift, or it's in a home that someone grew up in.

In today's throw-away, replace it with something new society, I think that these NuTone Chimes provide a connection to a time when things were meant to last and have more meaning than new products that are made today.

Nostalgia is a very powerful force and the familiar sound of a NuTone Chime brings back many fond memories.

To help people who own these fine quality, early NuTone Door Chimes, I've started a new series of Videos that will help you service and maintain your beloved NuTone Chime.

My first Video in this series shows how to Service the mechanical parts in a late 1980's NuTone 8 Note, Long Tube Chime base.  This style of NuTone Chime Base was in production from about 1970 through the mid 1990's.  

I know that this is a very long Video (almost 54 min.) but you can't really show how to service anything in 4 min.  I hope you find this Video helpful.

Hi I just wanted to thank you for your very clear video of cleaning a nutone 8. Chime doorbell.

Thanks to you I was able to fix my door bell that only struck one chime twice it now rings all 8 notes!
Our new Old house now has a lovely doorbell that is much more elegant than a new buzzer!

Sincerely Monique
