Bathroom Heater

JOHNPT · 2009-09-26 13:05:30

I wish to install a bathroom fan heater. If i put a fused spur in bathroom beside heater and take power from existing socket circuit in attic is this acceptable. Its an upstairs bathroom so there is no route back to fuse board for its own supply. What KW rating of heater is the maximum i can use. Thanks in advance for any…

a dimplex FX 20 is a 2KW heater and popular, it has a pullcord switch, the isolating unit should be at high level

Thanks. Is it ok to take a supply off an existing socket circuit for this heater?
