Default Repairing an electric bathroom heater

posted for all of us...



Have been asked to fix this Nutone again, after been sent a free fan unit alledgedly to provide more cfm to keep heater from burning up.

Tech support reported that the heater element was reengineered in 2017 and is now robust and will last.

Others reported installing a 15 minute timer preventing heater element burn out. It will turn off heater but why turn off the needed heater? Lol.

This unit has had the fan motor replaced with a higher cfm rating and is going through a 4th heater element.

Time to either dump and replace this unit or install a separate thermal switch or a timer.


And your point is? Does not Nutone have a lifetime warranty?
