This genuine OEM heater assembly includes a scroll cover, scroll housing, motor, wheel, bolt assembly, element, hook (5), nut (6), screw (5), and a two-prong plug. It is sourced from the original manufacturer for use in ceiling heaters. If the appliance can no longer produce heat or switch on, the assembly should be replaced. Ensure that the power to the unit is turned off at the circuit breaker to prevent accidental shock. Remove the vent cover/grille to access the assembly. Unplug the heater assembly and remove the mounting screw(s) that hold it in place. Pull the faulty assembly out of the housing and place the new one in. Reinstall the mounting screw(s) and plug the assembly in. Reattach the cover/grill to complete the repair.

Nice replacement!
Wasn't sure it was the right one when I first opened the box - sure didn't look like the old one-- installed easily. Is louder than the old one and puts out more heat!!..

Heater and Fan Replacements
It's great to be able to take showers in a warm, non foggy bathroom again. I'm glad that the parts were available since my ceiling fan/light/heater assembly is long out of warranty.

Nice replacement from original
The original heater/fan had a plastic housing that became disfigured from heat.
The replacement heater is a metal housing and seems more robust.

Both the replacement ceiling vent and heater were an exact fit. Only took about an hour to install both parts and they worked perfectly.

Note-replacement heater unit is different style as original, however instructions show both units in the drawings so you know this new one is a new replacement for original.
