Can I use heating lamp in this fan?

This fan takes a flourescent type lamp with a special connection, for what typically would otherwise be a screw type base. I believe this type of a lamp is used to meeet a UL standard that would otherwise require the light to be sealed or completely covered in case of breakage within a shower area. But this would not allow anywhere for air to be drawn through the fan. A standard heat lamp will not fit this product.

I don't know for sure, but my guess would be know no, as it uses a GU24 Type 18W florescent bulb (two pins that plug into unit). I don't believe that you can swap out a heat lamp for the type of installation. For what it's worth I think the fan is excellent, you can't even hear it when the shower is running and there is no steam build-up visible. The light isn't very bright, but as long as it's not your only light source it is sufficient for regular use.

The fixture is fitted with a four pin base, the bulb doesn't screw in like a typical bulb and it is designed for a fluorescent bilb

I personally would not try anything different w the electricity. Note that this lamp takes only 15 watt bulbs! Try anything more, and it melts. My advice: buy a different lamp.

I would not purchase this fan. We bought it and it overheats it melted the bulb inside. Almost caused a fire.

Yes, you can just use the fan. Please refer to the owner's manual for information.

This fan will accept a maximum 60W a15 incandescent bulb, also will accept LED bulbs (you should be able to get higher lumens at safe wattages compared to an incandescent) with standard bases.

I don't think that would work. The housing is just large enough to allow adequate ventilation around the bulb. Maybe 3/16" clearance all around. The heat lamp bulb doesn't direct heat like a light bulb directs light. It tends to radiate in all directions after it exits the fixture.Hope this helps.

Bought the heater for my mom, and really can't say if you can just use it as a fan.

yes, but it wont be necessary unless you are trying to reduce the heat output. If you are using standard heat lamp bulbs (not the red lens type), you will be getting great light and heat at the same time. This unit has amazing light and heat output.

Hi. This lamp is for healing. It will not heat a room. Minor energy consumption. It is a penetrating heat

I use these in a lamp that specifies 25 watt max per bulb and they work well and put out more light. As long as your fan used bulbs with the same size base as these they should work.

Yes. At the time I purchased it, I was only using the fan. Never got a chance to use the heater since I returned it.

Sure heat or heat and light on the same leg but I just looked at the package and it says a Max 0f 500 watts for the light portion and 3 amps on the fan side So basically a load under 4 amps on the lamp side and your alright

yes, you can. two key for this: a. exhaust ducking as big as possible. b. distance can not too long, otherwise exhaust fan will not enough power to push hot air out.

I use LED bulbs in mine, which generate very little heat. If you used regular incandescent bulbs, the bulbs probably would get quite hot. There is a wattage limit on the lamp--- I think 60W/bulb maximum--- but, depending on what your lighting needs are, 180W total is probably more than most people would need, anyway.

I currently have the unit hooked up separate. One switch to operate the heat lamp and a separate to operate the fan. There are instructions to wire on the same switch as well.

Yes, you should be able to. The sticker on the lamp says "100 watt maximum". I have a 13w CFL bulb in mine, and it works just fine.
