How do you remove the old air king exhaust fan from the ceiling?

What's above the fan, attic or the next story? If attic, the best way is to go above and remove the nails or screws from the stretchers (like the telescoping support that goes between joists to hold an octagon box or a new-work recessed light fixture.) The alternative is to hope you have some room above the fan box to force it up high enough to break things free. You may be able to lift it high enough to clear the ceiling and overcome the friction to slide to one side and then cut the stretchers on once side, slide the other way and cut the other. However, if the fan was installed in a more secure fashion, you will have to make a big hole in your ceiling. Don't forget to turn off the power to that circuit first!

Is light bulb included?

No, I bought the bulb specified in the product description locally.

Can I use the fan without the heat lights being on?

Sure. It's easy to wire the lights and fan on separate switches. Just be sure that both sides are on the same circuit and either a) the hot side powering the lights also provides power to the heat sensor switch that will start the fan if the lamps get too warm without the fan on or b) there is an always hot lead going to the heat sensor switch for the fan.
