[QUOTE="10thAnnvCobra, post: 15501142, member: 26675"] You say that they have a can light above the shower and that the house is new. If so, the can light should be moisture rated. You need to determine the circuit it is on and what it is rated for, 15Amp/20Amp. It sounds like it is not on a dedicated circuit so consider what else shares the circuit. Based on what the fixture maximum wattage is you should be able to replace the incandescent bulb with the appropriate heat lamp bulb. Not all fixtures include a thermal overload. I would suggest replacing the wall switch with a timer. Heat lamps get quite hot and it always best to use a timer. Installing a heat lamp timer is as easy as replacing the switch. [/QUOTE]
