Hi everyone,
Please help! I ordered a 600W electric towel warmer for my bathroom (there is no heater inside) and got an electrician to install it.
He was utterly rude and arrogant and I think he botched the job (charging £380). He fixed the heater to the bathroom wall and connected the cable to the socket that powers the electric extractor fan. He left without testing the towel warmer to see if it was actually warming up shouting that he was an electrician and knew what he was doing.
The lights come on, but there is absolutely no heat. Should the unit be connected to the 13A mains socket outside the bathroom, because the circuit inside the bathroom may not be capable of supplying the current required for the heating element.
Please can anyone help put my mind at rest. Is it ok to connect the heater to a fused socket inside the bathroom? I left the unit on the maximum heating setting for 30 mins and it was still ice cold.
Many thanks for your help and advice.
