Benefits of high-quality bathroom heaters

Keeping the bathroom warm

Stepping out of a hot shower and into a cold bathroom can be an uncomfortable experience. Luckily, there are several effective heating options available including bathroom wall heaters, panel heaters, and heat lamps to keep your bathroom toasty and warm. These solutions can rapidly and efficiently heat a space, typically installed on a wall or ceiling. For consistent warmth, another solution is using under tile heating that provides heat from the floor up. 

Removing humidity and odours 

Modern bathroom extractor fans in New Zealand are designed as 3-in-1 systems. In addition to heating, they are also efficient in removing moisture and chemical evaporations from the air. Bathroom fan heaters inhibit the growth of mould, mildew and bacteria while eliminating unpleasant odours at the same time. 

Affordable and cost-effective

A bathroom electric heater can be of high quality and cost-effective. It operates only when needed, eliminating the need to engage the home's central heating system. Most models in New Zealand are also energy efficient, which means a further reduction of the energy bill. 

Easy to install and maintain

Standard models of bathroom heaters typically come with a handy installation guide, requiring only a short time and some skill to mount. On the odd occasion, you may require a qualified electrician if wiring is required but this will be a relatively easy job for them.

Types of bathroom heaters

Bathroom heaters with fans

A combination of exhaust, light and a heat ventilation system, these keep growing in popularity in New Zealand as one of the most convenient solutions. With enhanced functionality built into one unit, bathroom heaters with fans don't just heat the room, but also remove moist air. At the same time, they provide additional or sometimes the main source of bathroom lighting. Bathroom heaters with fans are available in a range of models designed for both small and large bathrooms.

Panel heaters & other wall-mounted bathroom heaters

Bathroom panel heaters come in different proportions and sizes, ready to be mounted on the bathroom wall. Their versatility makes them an excellent option for small bathrooms. Many wall-mounted heaters, including panel heaters, come with an electric plug and don't require a permanent connection to the grid. Most models feature some ways to control the temperature, while the advanced ones come with a built-in thermostat. One of the wall-mounted panel types is a heated towel rail. It offers additional convenience as a place to dry towels and keep them warm. 

Infrared bathroom heater

Infrared heaters are typically small and compact, designed to be mounted on the bathroom wall easily. They can warm up very quickly, saving time and electric energy in the process. Even better, they require no maintenance and no plumber visits. Infrared C radiation affects objects and bodies in proximity directly, without heating the air or drying it out. The skin absorbs the heat in a similar manner to sun rays, feeling cosy and comfortable even during long bath rituals.

Compared to other types of heaters available in New Zealand, infrared heating panels consume very little electric energy. The addition of advanced bathroom thermostats takes that further, requiring even less power than most heating systems. 

Bathroom radiator

A bathroom radiator is a heating appliance designed for use in the bathroom. They can be either electric or water-fed and come in various styles, including towel radiators, which combine heating and a towel rail. When choosing a bathroom radiator, it's important to consider the room size, heating system, and desired style.

Things to consider when choosing bathroom heaters

Some customers in New Zealand prefer portable heaters over fixed ones. However, not all portable heaters are bathroom heaters, which means they might not be safe to use in a bathroom. Even with a good IP rating, all electrical appliances should be kept away from direct contact with water. In the case of heathers, that applies even if they are specifically designed for bathroom use. Most modern bathroom heaters come with infrared or LED lighting and heating options. Those models are significantly more energy-efficient than older halogen versions, also with a longer lifespan and improved range of light.
