Project Information

Like many small-space renovations, the Osage City homeowner was looking for a modern, non-intrusive way to ensure their new bathroom was comfortable during the colder months. Traditional forced-air vents can be drafty, noisy, and circulate allergens, and standard space heaters waste valuable floor space. The primary challenge was achieving luxury warmth while maintaining a clean, minimalist aesthetic.

The solution was the WarmlyYours Ember Mirror Radiant Panel. Installed on the wall, the 600-watt mirror functions silently, heating objects and people in the room directly using infrared technology. This direct warmth is far more comfortable and efficient than simply heating the air. Installation was simple and versatile, as the Ember Mirror allows for either a plug-in connection for a quick start or can be hardwired into a wall switch or timer for a seamless, cord-free look. The outcome is a stunning, warm, and highly functional bathroom that never suffers from a foggy mirror after a hot shower, proving that heating can be as beautiful as it is effective.

The primary benefits are space-saving design, dual-functionality, and superior comfort. The radiant mirror eliminates the need for a bulky wall heater, provides a fog-free mirror surface, and uses silent infrared heat, which warms objects and people directly for a deeper, more luxurious comfort than forced-air systems.
