you`d need some TLC n all....fitting a nasty hideous thing like that.....nearly as naff as a ceiling fan....the ones with those petal lights on stalks sprouting out of the middle....ugh!!

I think Denmans still stock them or they did not so long ago... They reckon they still sell! lolol

It looks like order code BHL750 if anyone's interested!!!!!!

 

[Gaz Towle]

are these things still allowed to be fitted/or can they be snagged on a eicr

Can't see why not!! We actually have something like this in our toilet/shower room over here, but based on heat lamps rather than an IR element!!

As i stated earlier on this thread, my parents had one of these for donkey's years, and very grateful for it too, on cold winter mornings!! lol!!

My brother in laws house has one of these in his bathroom which has a polystyrene tiled ceiling. Told him so many times what a stupid idea it is. Also he's got the old 5A re wire able fuses backing it up so whenever he puts it on with all the lights, pop goes the fuse. He doesn't believe me that it's the heater though, thinks it must be a fault on his wiring.

He must have a hell of a lighting load then. What's he got, rooms full of ceiling Halo spots or something?? lol!!

it`l be all that fault eng....due to low IR....due to all that polystyrene
it could of course be nothing more than overenthusiastic use of growlamps...
