Keeping Your Bathroom Infrared Heaters Safe (and Dry)

Putting infrared lamps in a bathroom is basically a fight against steam. It’s an uphill battle because water loves to conduct electricity. If your insulation slips up, you’re looking at short circuits or ground faults—and nobody wants that in a shower. To keep things safe, we focus on two big things: the barrier and the seal.

Stopping the Leaks

To make sure the electricity stays where it belongs, we use high-grade alumina ceramics or quartz seals at the ends of the lamps. Think of these as the “guards” that stop current from leaking into the heater’s frame. When things get damp, you have to worry about “surface tracking”—basically, electricity finding a sneaky path across a wet surface. That’s why we use parts with a high CTI (Comparative Tracking Index). The goal? Keeping that insulation resistance above 100 MΩ, even when the room feels like a sauna.
