Mirror Defogger
 

Before deciding which product to buy, the following points should be taken into consideration:

• A panel with only slightly smaller dimensions than those of the mirror will stop the mirror from steaming up all over.

• A panel with much smaller dimensions than those of the mirror will create a clear square but the rest of the mirror will be steamed up.

• In order to be able to fix the mirror to the wall there must be a space of at least 75 mm between the edge of the panel and the edge of the mirror.

dependent connection:
- in parallel with the mirror light (recommended);
- in parallel with the extractor fan;

independent connection (economy drive):
- we recommend using a switch with an LED indicator;
- we do not recommend the use of a timer switch.

Is Mirror Defogger safe?
Yes. Mirror Defogger is a product with class II insulation. When installing, it must not be connected to earth.
How does it work?
When Mirror Defogger is switched on, the electrical current flows through the resistive compound in the product and produces heat by the Joule effect (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joule_heating). This heat, which is transferred to the mirror, raises its temperature (by about 13 °C), which stops it from steaming up. It works in much the same way as the heated rear window of a car.
Does the mirror always stay warm?
It depends on the type of connection. To avoid wasting energy, we recommend connecting the panel in parallel with the switch for the light above the mirror so that Mirror Defogger is only on when it is really needed.

Not at all. Mirror Defogger is affixed to the back of the bathroom mirror and is therefore completely hidden from view.
How long does it take the mirror to reach the necessary temperature?
