If you have wall space, and money, you might consider installing a towel
heater. The quality ones can double as a radiator and warm a small
bathroom. They can also be programmed to heat only at specified times.
Since we got ours, I have closed off the heating vent in the bathroom,
as the towel heater keeps the room warm.

The master bathroom in my house is freezing in winter. I'm thinking
of installing a wall heater or portable heater that I could put on a
timer to run just for a couple of hours in the morning. I have 2
options:

1) Install an electric wall heater. There's an outlet on the other
side of the wall in where I'd install the heater, so I could run power
to it easily. The heater would be 2ft from the toilet, 4-5ft from the
shower and 6ft from the bath. It would be in a corner, almost under a
window (the window's on the other wall formed by the corner).

2) Install an outlet, presumably a GFI, in the same location, and plug
in a portable heater on a timer.

Any opinions? Are there any electrical code issues I should know
about?

Thanks,
Michael
