Hi,

I'm remodeling a bathroom which has a single window and a radiator
under a counter and not near a window. I'm told that this location for
the radiator is highly inefficient to begin with. The bathroom is
small and there's no opportunity to move the radiator to the window.

As part of remodeling, we will have a door that connects the bathroom
to the master bedroom. The master bedroom has two radiators which
produce more than enough heat to heat the room.

I'm thinking of removing the radiator entirely and rely on A. the
radiators in the adjacent bedroom and a newly installed overhead
heater such as this Panasonic (search for B000F7P3DC on Google or
Amazon). (Finally, I'll have heated tile and towel warmers, not that
these can make any overall temperature difference.)

To this idea of having no radiator in the bathroom, some contractors
react "sure, why not" while others say "bad idea and bad for resale
value". I would like to hear opinions for the experts in this
newsgroup.

Thank you,

Aaron Fude

cold bathrooms are the pits I grew up with one

how about a kick plate one under the vanity? ir add a electric heater
thats often part of a fan,,,,,,,

easiest to do during remodel, adds little cost to current job and
prevents hassles at resale time.

I would get the opinon of a HVAC contractor.......

are you opening and insulating all wals and cielings in that bath
area? using closed cell foam would help. R 6 per inch.
