Bathroom electricity heater

[Jay Darst]

Hi Bob!

The heater in the bathroom, as well as all the electric heaters in
our Birds, have a piece snap disc like thermostat that turns the
heater off in the event of an overheat.

My bathroom heater wouldn't stay on for long once it was making a
fair amount of heat. I took it out and cleaned all the lint, hair,
dust , etc from the inside of the heater. The fan was especially
covered with dust and lint. It didn't spin as fast as I thought it
should.

once cleaned, the heater will run much longer than previously.

I did not find a reset button in any of my 4 electric heaters. if
you take them out to clean them(takes about 20 minutes each), you
will find they are stupid simple. I think someone posted where to
buy the new fan motors for these heaters.
