The single-bulb heater uses a 250-watt BR40-size infrared bulb (not included), and requires a Broan model 69W or 69V two-function control (sold separately) for operation. UL listed for 75-degree-C wiring (retrofits), the bulb heater measures approximately 8-3/8 inches long by 8-1/8 inches wide by 6 inches high and features a white exterior for a clean look that will nicely accommodate almost any decor.

This bulb heater, which uses one 250-watt BR40 bulb (not included), gives you much-needed warmth when you need it, without touching your central thermostat.

Why 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.
