Give your bathroom an instant boost in heat with this Broan two-bulb heater (model 163). This bulb heater, which uses two 250-watt BR40 bulbs (not included), gives you much-needed warmth when you need it, without touching your central thermostat. Its bulbs can be used individually when you don't need so much heat, or together when it's colder. Broan also offers one-bulb (model 162) and two-bulb (model 164) heaters with integrated fan ventilation.
Give your bathroom an instant boost in heat (view larger).The heater features adjustable mounting brackets that can span up to 24 inches, with keyhole slots, and its housing can be vertically adjusted after your ceiling is finished to give you a perfect installation. You can control its operation through a choice of Broan wall control models (available separately):
57W, 57V, 59W, 59V, 61W, 61V, 63W, 63V, 64W, 64V, 68W, 68V, 70TW, 71V, 72W, 72V, 269WL, 269VL, DH100W or T24HWhy Spot Heating Makes Sense in Your Home
You hastily get ready every morning, head for work, the office, or school, just when the central heating system has finished warming the entire house. It's about as inefficient as it gets. Spot heating solves that problem. No longer will you heat an entire home when you simply need a bit of comfort in the bath or dressing room, or any other room.
Efficient Heating Element
Even the most efficient central heating systems send heat up the chimney. But Broan spot heaters deliver every bit of energy back into your home. There's no external venting, so the electricity you convert to heat is delivered directly where you want it.
Simple, Safe, and Efficient.
Permanently lubricated motors are quiet and require no maintenance. They can be operated by a built-in adjustable thermostat or an optional wall-mount controller. Heaters may be converted in the field to a choice of wattages/voltages. And for safety, heaters are thermal overload protected and the complete heater assembly conveniently removes from the housing for cleaning.

Customers like the temperature, performance, ease of installation, quality and value of the light fixture. For example, they mention that it provides some heat in the bathrooms on those colder mornings, the small fan helps spread the heat and that it works great in combo with one red and one white light to give a little heat. They are also happy with value, and appearance. That said, opinions are mixed on the noise it makes.
AI-generated from the text of customer reviews
Customers like the temperature of the light fixture. They say it provides some heat in the bathrooms on colder mornings, the small fan helps spread the heat, and it takes the chill out of the bathroom. The dual lights radiate lots of heat very quickly, and the fan helps bring the warmth down. The lamps (each 250w) are nice and toasty, and there are no worries with heat bulbs on wet skin.

Installed with 2 Westinghouse brand heater lamps (each 250w), and it's nice and toasty esp. for winter mornings.
The warmth generated by this product is just perfect. I recommend it to anyone thinking about or in need of a quality heat lamp.
* It surprised me too that there was a (quiet) fan in the unit.
* The cover is only held on by a few springs. It may sounds cheesy but it works.
* When cutting the drywall for the unit, place the back of the unit (without the lip) against the drywall and use that as a template. Then cut a bit inside that template. Maybe 1/4 to 1/2 inch. The reason is you want to make sure your plastic cover covers the hole you just made. You won't see that extra edge you left because the plastic cover, well, will cover that. :->

Make sure you buy a good timer for it.
