Twin output bathroom downflow heater

[Richard Burns]

Does anyone know of a bathroom downflow fan heater than can be switched between two different heat settings whilst in use.
The customer has asked for one but I feel that exposed switches are unlikely in a bathroom, however I have seen a review that said there was one available by pull cord switching.
All the ones I have found are adjustable at installation but not while in use.

Thanks for your help

The only ones I can think of must be about ready to appear on the antiques roadshow.

That is probably why this customer knows about them!
Oh this isn't on the public forum is it?

If i remember right one of the dimplex heaters has a 1kw and 2kw setting

You could run to that from a double pole master 'on' switch then into a (10amp) 2 way switch to the 1 or 2 kw setting....this switch being placed in the right location...gash but would work

Alternately, talk to a rep and let them find it :detective:

Isn't that switch inside the unit and you select 1 or 2kw when you install it

There was one about a few years ago (Argos? iirc) that had a multi-function pullswitch ie first click half power, second click full power but I have seen one for a few years

I think that is the one the customer was thinking about, if it is now no longer available that explains why I cant find it!

Fin, I think I will have to go for the rep option!

PS Richard, we are on the public forum :44: just hope your customer doesn't stumble on here.

The dimplex fx20's have the switch inside to set permanently at 1KW or 2KW
However on the 2KW setting, it gets up to the temperatire selected on thermostat the DROPS to 1kW

Thank you all for the assistance, I have now had another look in the less likely places and come up blank again, I will have to tell them that it is either the auto reducing output, 1kW output only, 2kW output only, or with a timer, or with a thermostat or all of the above! At least it made me find my Electric Centre catalogue!
Too many choices and none the one I want!
