Step-by-Step Guide to Installing Bathroom Heater Ventilation Ducts

The bathroom heater usually includes a ventilation function, so when we install the heater, we need to install a ventilation duct. Next, I will briefly introduce how to install the ventilation duct for a bathroom heater.

How to Properly Install Ventilation Ducts for Your Bathroom Heater

1. First, we need to check if there is a pre-reserved ventilation hole in the bathroom. If there is no hole drilled, we can ask professionals to do it.

2. We will install a backdraft damper at the location of the ventilation hole, ensuring that the gap between the damper and the wall is sealed tightly with materials such as cement mortar.

3. Determine the installation position of the ceiling-mounted heater and connect one end of the ventilation duct to the backdraft damper, extending the other end to the installation position of the heater. The connection between the ventilation duct and the backdraft damper can be securely fixed with materials such as aluminum foil tape.

4. Install the ceiling according to requirements, making sure to leave space for the installation of the heater and other electrical products.

5. Connect the electric wires of the heater, attach the ventilation duct to the outlet of the heater, and secure it with aluminum foil tape or similar materials. Fix the heater's housing to the ceiling, and then install the cover and the switch for the heater.

How to choose a bathroom heater

1. The power size of the heater can be determined based on the area of the bathroom. For example, for a bathroom area of about 6-8 square meters, you can choose a heater with four heating bulbs, etc. When selecting a heating bulb type, ensure that the distance between the heating bulbs is sufficient to allow for more even heat distribution. When purchasing a heater, we should also check if the product has 3C certification, a compliance certificate, etc.

2. When selecting a heater, we should pay attention to the product's functions. Nowadays, heaters come with diverse functions; in addition to heating, they often include lighting, ventilation, and air purification functions. Depending on actual conditions, you can choose a heater with different functions. For instance, if the bathroom is already equipped with an exhaust fan and lighting, a heater with basic heating functionality would suffice. While purchasing a heater, we should also pay attention to the product's workmanship, ensuring there are no burrs or rough surface issues.
