Is this heated toilet seat suitable for 240volt electric supply ie. U.K. electricity?

Yes if you buy a transformer/converter/adapter (not expensive). We did that (Sydney, Australia) and the seat works fine.Ron Klinger

I am not aware if there is a model suitable for 240v. My unit is 120v/60hz.

It came with a 120v US adapter. But the transformer is removable. It connects to a wire with a 1/8 inch headphone connector

i'm not really sure. it works fine in a regular 120V outlet in the bathroom.

Suzann, Yes, it needs a standard U.S. 120 VAC outlet. It draws very little current so a light weight extension cord would work well if the outlet is not near the toilet. The toilet lid must be kept closed when not in use to keep the seat warm. Mine works fantastically well. Mel

no,keep it simple buy what is designated for your heater read info. on this one,just in case here it is,Don't buy this one unless you buy a new water heater and have someone qualified to run a new line that is 240v(10,000 watts, 40 amps, 250 volts, 60Hz capacity)

The spec on the label says 120VAC only - the plug is 120vac type, not for 240V.

Their lower Voltage adapter takes the edge off- but the stronger adapter really heats toilet seat and plugs into any outlet

No you do not need 240v. I would recomend a 20 amp 120vac line for this unit.

Yes this is a 240v heater, if you want the max heating btu it will take at least a 40 amp dedicated circuit.
1453368
Yes, these require 240v wiring. Use a 40 amp circuit because this heater draws about 32 amps.

If its a 240V rating it's probably a 150watt unit but if its a 115V unit its more likely to be a 300 watt unit. The most important item for UK use is that it is a 240v unit.I have some of the latter if required. they are the MT 1009a part No. on E bay -TouchLamp Lighting control for 240V UK Mains supply (331170361817) Roy Wiggins

If you used a voltage converter that is rated at 1000 watts it should work but I think you would be better off buying an appliance that is designed to work on 240 volts. It would be less expensive overall and more efficient.

to my knowledge it is wired for 120 volt USA household current, I do not know if they make a UK version

Probably not. It's not a voltage converter & is better for small things. I plugged in my heating pad & it blew the circuit & my heating pad.

This power adapter does not accept 240 volts. It can only be used with a standard usa 115 volt ac 60 hz receptable.

Its labeled 120 volt household current, so I wouldn't go changing the plug or using an adapter for a 240 volt receptical. Hope that helps.

Yes it will... the AC power chord is removable so you can replace it with one that suits... I assume you are from Australia with 240v (I am too).

Hi. Our contractor installed ours. It was awhile ago, but he says you need a 110 power supply where you can plug it (ours is a GFI) in and the current water source. He didn't remember it being difficult, but we do have a toto toilet and both were new. That being said, my family fights for the right to use that toilet. They love the heated seat, the adjustable water temps. We also have two brondell's (they were much less expensive), While they work well, their controller isn't as easy to adjust. If they break, would probably replace them with a Toto wash let.
