   The panasonic is quiet, produces pretty decent light w/ fluorescent bulbs and the heat is moderate-enough for a small bath.  Trim grill cover is rather bulky, but these have been reliable units for me.  Not for over wet areas (shower).

   Wow, pretty unanimous on the panasonic.  

   I checked out the spec sheet on that model, and was surprised to find a blower fan for the heater.  I was expecting to see an IR Bulb for the heat.  

   When the heater and exh fan are on at the same time, is the heated air able to travel down without being sucked into the exhaust fan?  Or do you have to use either the heater or the fan, not both?

   Thanks again for the help.

   The heater has an adjustable louver which gives you a somewhat limited ability to direct the warm air flow. So yes, you can run both at the same time and still get some heating. 

   You can buy online from efi.org if not available locally.
