As we continue to try and ready the house to sell….
The full bath here has a light, an exhaust fan, and a heater on the ceiling. Three different units.
The heater died a few years ago. When we tried to find a replacement, the only thing we could turn up was combo units, heater and light, heater and exhaust fan, all three…..
Today I Google and, Voila!, there are ceiling heaters. Don’t know what I did wrong last time….
First question. The existing heater (thirty years old) with the burned out element is Raywall 120 volt, 1250 watt unit. The heater I’m looking to replace it with is a NuTone Surface-Mounted Fan-Forced Radiant Heater

The linked page notes that it is comparable to Broan model number 157 which is 120 volt, 1250 watt and looks just like the unit I’m replacing (The Nutone looks slightly different, but is less money).
Assuming that the Nutone is 120 volt, 1250 watt (which I will verify before I order…), is there any reason why the existing thermostat won’t work with it?
Second question, has anyone done business with Westside Wholesale?? Am I going to regret dealing with them?
Thanks,

Rich,
I ordered a bunch of lighting and a Panasonic fan/heater from Westside. Perfectly happy. Everything arrived on time and together. As I recall, they had the best price going on much of what I ordered.
Best,
Steve

The existing thermostat should work fine.
Dan,Thanks! That's what I figured, but I wanted some reassurance.
