Heat light/lamp vs space heater

4 years ago

My bathroom is cold and I'm currently running a space heater. I think the cold is due in part due to the flap on the exhausted fan being stuck open. I assume the fix is to replace it. Would it make sense to replace the lighted exhaust fan with a fan / heat lamp fixture? Not sure which would be more effecient.

I don't know about efficient...meaning energy efficient or efficient for heating the room, but I just replaced a baseboard heater and exhaust fan with one of these and I LOVE it. The exhaust fan is quiet and the heater just blasts warm air right down on you, so you are instantly warm. The contractor did need to put in a new vent pipe as the old one was smaller diameter than what this one needs. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005XUFQ8I/?tag=aircetera100-20&th=1
