  Top 3 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. Is this heater safe to install directly next to a shower or bath?

   • Due to its IP21 rating, the heater is safe for bathroom use but must be installed outside of Zone 0, 1, and 2 (the immediate areas around the bath, shower, or basin). Installation should always be done by a qualified electrician following local regulations.

2. Does this heater work during loadshedding?

   • No. As a 2000W electric heater, it requires grid power and cannot be run on small residential backup solutions. It is designed for use when the main power is on.

3. Does it also include a cooling fan setting?

   • Unlike some portable fan heaters, dedicated bathroom fan heaters like the GBFH-1640 are primarily designed for rapid heating and typically do not include a separate cool fan mode.
