Getting Your Bathroom Heat Just Right

When you’re picking out an infrared lamp for your bathroom, the instinct is usually to just grab the most powerful one on the shelf. But here’s the thing: more power isn’t always better. It’s really all about the size of your room. If you get the balance wrong, you’re either wasting money on electricity or shivering in a cold shower.

The Size Factor

Think about your space. A tiny powder room doesn’t need much—usually something between 250W and 500W does the trick. The heat fills that small area almost instantly. Now, if you’re dealing with a big master bath, that’s a different story. You’ll probably want a higher wattage or, better yet, a few different lamps spaced about 1.5 meters apart. That way, you don’t end up with “cold spots” where you’re freezing in one corner while the other side of the room is a sauna. And a word of warning: don’t overdo it in a small space. You could actually overheat the fixture. On the flip side, if the lamp is too weak, it’ll just run non-stop trying to reach the right temperature, which kills the filament way faster.
