Broan Model 157 Low-Profile Solid Wire Element Ceiling Heater Reviews
9 of 9 people found the following review helpful Works GREAT!, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Broan Model 157 Low-Profile Solid Wire Element Ceiling Heater (Tools & Home Improvement) Sorry to read another reviewer who had problems with his Model 157. Mine has worked perfectly for several months now. I chose the Model 157 rather than the Model 154 in spite of that reviewers comments. I'm glad I did.I installed it above the open stall of my elderly mother's doorless shower directly in the rising mist and high humidity. I run it (and another 1250 watt portable heater) for several minutes before her shower and total running time each use is probably about 30-45 minutes. It has never failed and the (large) bathroom warms up a LOT. Haven't measured the temperature, but it gets "toasty" in there (and as humid as a sauna.) I was worried the high temperature and moisture would be an issue, but they have not been a problem. In other words, it gets plenty warm in there without tripping any high-temperature safety feature in the unit. I chose the Model 157 because of the heavy-duty element. It takes a couple minutes to fully heat up to red-hot, but...

It was an 85 year old lady friend of mine and she said I was a 'gift from God' after I put it in. This was the easiest bathroom appliance I have ever had to istall. A monkey could put this in. a silicone grommett or washer for the screw holding the screen on could cut down on some chatter/vibration I heard. Other than that it works great. 5 of 6 people found the following review helpful Must use with timer!, Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Broan Model 157 Low-Profile Solid Wire Element Ceiling Heater (Tools & Home Improvement) This heater is great...it really cranks out the heat. I live in an older house, and replaced the Broan model 158. However, I've learned the hard way that the thermal switch on this unit is not reliable. Once the unit turns itself off via the thermal switch, it won't come back on. I've went through three thermal units before I learned my lesson. With the 158 the thermal switch would reset itself and I would be able to use the unit again. So if you really want this unit, buy a timer switch to go with it.If I had to do it over again, I wish I would have gone with another 158. It worked fine on the old fashioned toggle switch. |
