  • Compartment Heater

    Posted by Jackson on January 10, 2016 at 9:04 pm

    My compartment ‘heat gun’ heater has failed. Has anyone adapted and installed a small ceramic heater in the bay? Right now, I just have a 100w bulb hanging in the bay… Thanks in advance.

    I found the Lasko #100 personal ceramic heater on Amazon and ordered it. I’m hoping that the small size will make it a good fit for the small area. Reviews were good. I’ll let you know who it mounts-up…

    If you have the water heater on, that pretty much provides plenty of heat for bay protection.

    If you turn on the water heater, first be sure there is water in it to avoid burning out the heating element in thirty seconds.

    Hey Jackson, hope all is well with you.

    I am using the Broan ceramic heaters as well. I set mine on low heat and the thermostat at about 50%. It keeps the bays toasty. I also put one inside my bathroom on the same setting as I was getting cold air through my bathroom vent fan.

    Peace of mind I guess. 12 degrees will get your attention.
