~Joy~ He have a heating light/fan in the bathroom. If turned on & door
closed the room is toasty warm in less than 5 minutes. It is built in the
ceiling..got the idea from a hotel...bought it at Home Depot a few years
ago. It is so nice--you can sit under it & it helps dry hair. Sarah loves
it.   Our bathroom is so cold because of tile floor-that we all love
it...Joy
