This unique Kansas City, Missouri, project, featured on the TV show "You Can't Turn That Into a House," required a smart heating solution for a newly converted garage bathroom where space and style were paramount. The challenge was to provide effective warmth without a bulky radiator or vent. WarmlyYours solved this with the Ember Mirror Radiant Panel, a dual-purpose product that serves as a beautiful, fog-free mirror while delivering luxurious radiant heat, adding comfort, efficiency, and value to the home.

The Story
When the design team for a popular home renovation TV show took on the challenge of converting a detached garage into a livable space, they knew every inch would count. The bathroom, in particular, presented a common problem: how to heat it effectively without sacrificing design or valuable floor and wall space. Traditional heating systems were too intrusive for the clean, modern aesthetic they envisioned.
The solution was as elegant as it was intelligent: the WarmlyYours Ember Mirror Radiant Panel. This wasn't just a mirror; it was a high-performance infrared heater in disguise. The professional installation was straightforward, with the panel being mounted on the wall just like a standard mirror. Its dual-connection feature provided the flexibility to either plug it into a nearby outlet or hardwire it for a seamless, cord-free look.
The result is a stunning success. The bathroom now features a chic, functional mirror that never fogs up after a hot shower. More importantly, it provides silent, consistent, and comfortable warmth. The infrared technology heats the objects and people in the room directly, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere far more efficiently than forced-air systems. This project perfectly demonstrates how to integrate a powerful, energy-efficient heating solution into a home's decor without compromise.
