I bought this with the 2 light option and exhaust fan. My husband is mad at me now that I got him to install it because it does not warm the bathroom. Is there an additional heater blower he could install that does not have lights and exhaust fan since...

I have this same model in my basement bath and heats fine. The unit requires infrared heat lamps to produce the heat. Hope you have the right bulbs.

Good afternoon, you shouldn't need a blower with this unit as it will do a nice job warming up a medium size room. You could use a ceiling fan or an oscillating fan to move the air. I did notice a comment below about warranty service. Mr. Heater has an 800 number for service and my experience with them is good. Should you have any questions, give Next Day MRO a call toll free at 855-770-7195.

I am looking for a heater with a timer and found this one on Amazon that has an "on" timer where you can set the time of day. Haven't purchased it so can't comment on how it works. Holmes Digital Bathroom Heater Fan with Pre-Heat Timer and Max Heat Output, HFH436WGL-UM

I put this heater/fan/light in the bathroom of my last home. What I remember is I was very happy with it regarding the heat provided in the winter and overall performance but I can't remember for certain the answer to your question. Perhaps you can find the users or technical manual online.

No this don't come with a blower but you don't need it. The heater provides plenty of heat and the blower would be to much besides this is radiant heat

The unit is not sold with an on-off wall switch. Unless you are an experienced and qualified electrician, I absolutely recommend that you spend the extra bucks to have it properly installed with a dedicated circuit for the heat and separate circuits for the light and fan. I also recommend putting the fan on a timer in order to ensure the moisture is properly vented after every shower.

We have not actually installed ours yet but they come with a heater. There are some other cheaper ones that don't come with a heater. When we ordered it said it was going to be months before we received them but they came pretty quick! I hope this helps.

I believe you will need an additonal switch. On this unit, there is a switch that I used to control the light. Then there is the automatic/manual switch used to control the vent fan. I don't have a nightlight, but I use a seperate timer switch to control the heater built into my vent/light/heat unit. B. Wood

no. This unit is very good and super quite. you can hardly hear the exhaust fan and the heater does a very good job of heating the bathroom

There are separate functions in this fixture. The fan part removes humidity/odors like any bath fan would, and then there are two light bulbs which also can be heat lamps if you wish or not...depending on what you want. The heat lamp does heat up the area pretty well if the bath isn't too big.

I'm sorry, but I have the fan with the light. Works great and the fan is whisper quiet. My electrician said I purchased a great one.

No, I have light on separate switch. I have fan and heater on same switch. Works great.

I am not an electrician, so take that into account. To be separate, I believe you need to have an existing light/fan switch and wires installed in your bathroom. Otherwise, you'll need to handy electrical wiring to install a new dual switch with one for your light and one for the fan. I simply replaced an existing fan which had it's own switch. All the best.

The residential electrical code in most states "prohibits" stand a lone electric heaters in bathrooms. Your safer to have a ceiling fan installed that included a built in heater.

Only the light bulbs produce heat but it is only to heat up the person under the bulbs, if you want to heat up the bathroom it would be better to use a regular electric heater.

I just installed a whisperwarm with lights and a whispercontrol and they work great. Both are expensive, vent is large, and it does not give off much heat but it helps. And they're both quiet. Nice to know the fan will come on when needed and off by itself. I would recommend both.
