Nutone0969B000 Ceiling Heater Heat Element

These are an upgraded model to the original dead heaters I had. They’re not quite as hot as the originals but that could be from me cleaning the fixture while I had it torn apart. Installation was easy, only tool necessary is a Phillips head screwdriver. Removing the old heater caused some of the plastic to break off. Be sure to clean your fixture and reinstall the ground wire or you’ll burn your house down. The new units have a self resetting heat fuse instead of the one time fuse on my original. Haven’t tripped it yet but if it goes I’ll update this.

I have 2 bathrooms in the house and neither is connected to the house heating system. These heaters are in the combo unit with light and fan. They take the chill off the rooms in about 5 minutes.I had to replace the one in the upstairs bathroom after several years of use. The heater coil itself was fine, the thermal protector went bad.The replacement works fine and was very easy to install. Good product overall. Oddly enough I installed one at my daughter's house more than 5 yrs. ago and it just went bad so I will be ordering another one today

This part is great when you have the old style heater that has the resettable fuse. The new style has a one time blow fuse that once overheated you have to replace the entire heater. Very unfortunate. This was easy to replace and works fine.

Heating unit was very easy to replace on the fan housing.I recommend that the fan & motor should be cleanedbefore assembling and installing the unit.

I ordered my unit with information that I took from the product sheets I had kept after we had the original unit installed. The picture looked like the unit I had replaced some years back, being the horder of the family I hung on to that unit as the only thing wrong was the heating element. When the replacement part arrived and I went to install it, I was suprised to find that the last time the heating unit went out I purchased an entirely new unit that wasn't conpatiable with the part I received. As, I said before I had kept the original unit with the bad heating element which I was able to repair with the new part. And I horded away the different unit and will replace the heating element and use this as a backup unit. We have 3 of these units in our home. No matter which unit you use they are both very simple and easy to install.
