Brilliant | Heat Fan Light 3-in-1 Bathroom Mate 2 x 275W | White Complete
The Brilliant 20351-05 is a three-function bathroom heater combining instant heat, exhaust fan, and LED lighting in one compact ceiling unit rated 240V 50Hz. The 20351-05 integrates 2 x 275W heat globes, a 9W 860-lumen LED globe, and a 35W extract fan, with a thermostat-controlled safety switch that activates the fan at 80°C. It complies with Class I electrical safety standards and suits standard 345 x 185mm ceiling cutouts in small to medium bathrooms.
Bathroom renovations and rental property turnouts frequently require a compact three-in-one solution to eliminate separate installation points. Tenants expect heating, ventilation, and light from a single fixture, and the standard ceiling cavity depth limits the space available for oversized fittings. A streamlined bathroom mate that performs all three functions off one 3-gang wall switch reduces wiring complexity and retrofit cost on properties with older, narrower roof cavities.
Licensed electricians favour the 20351-05 for quick bathroom upgrades because installation fits off existing 345 x 185mm cutouts on older fittings, the 1.5m duct length covers most ceiling-to-roof runs without additional ducting, and the three-function design means one control point instead of three separate switches. The white finish integrates into contemporary bathrooms, the thermostat adds a safety layer on rental properties where tenants might forget to turn off heat, and the combination of instant heat and exhaust means moisture clears before mould takes hold.
Features
- Three-in-one configuration — light, heat, and exhaust fan in one ceiling mount eliminates space constraints and reduces installation time on bathroom retrofits.
- Instant heat globes — 2 x 275W (total 550W) infrared heating delivers immediate warmth in small to medium bathrooms, faster than waiting for a ducted system to cycle.
- LED R63 reflector globe — 9W 860-lumen output at 4200K cool white matches bathroom task lighting without the heat penalty of incandescent bulbs.
- Powerful extract fan — 35W ball-bearing motor pulls up to 240m³/hr, extracting steam and odours effectively even when the bathroom door is closed.
- Thermostat safety switch — automatically activates the exhaust fan if internal temperature exceeds 80°C, preventing heat buildup and protecting the unit from thermal stress on long summer days.
- Three-gang wall switch control — all three functions (heat, light, fan) controlled from a single switch, no additional wiring or separate control points needed.
- Complete package supplied — includes 1.5m flexible aluminium ducting, two duct clamps, exterior grille, and wall switch, ready to install into standard 345 x 185mm ceiling cutouts.
- Class I electrical construction — double-insulated design rated for domestic and residential installation under AS/NZS electrical standards.
- IPX2 ingress protection — water-resistant against splash and low-pressure spray, suitable for wet areas but not for direct rain or high-pressure washing.
- Compact dimensions — 180mm height, 225mm width, 400mm depth fits flush into standard plasterboard ceiling cavities; the 345 x 185mm cutout matches most older bathroom heater openings.
- Long-life ball-bearing motor — engineered for quiet operation and extended life, typical of commercial-grade exhaust fan drives.
- Not dimmable — the LED reflector globe does not support dimmer control; use a standard wall switch only.
Where to use
- Small to medium bathrooms — the 20351-05 is sized for powder rooms and compact family bathrooms where a single ceiling point handles heating, ventilation, and lighting.
- Bathroom renovations and updates — replaces older two-heat-globe and exhaust-fan combinations that occupied separate ceiling spaces; the 345 x 185mm cutout matches legacy fittings.
- Rental property turnover — quick installation during tenancy changes when bathrooms need to meet current moisture and safety standards with minimal structural work.
- Properties with narrow roof cavities — the compact 400mm profile suits older houses with shallow rafter spacing where ducted systems or oversized fittings won't fit.
- Wet areas with splashback risk — the IPX2 rating handles bathroom spray and humidity but is not rated for external walls or direct outdoor weather exposure.
- Budget-conscious upgrades — combines three electrical functions in one fitting, reducing overall material cost and installation time compared to separate switches and wall boxes.
The Brilliant 20351-05 is not suitable for external walls, weatherproof installations, or high-pressure spray environments. It should not be used in steam rooms, saunas, or areas subject to continuous water immersion. The unit is designed for standard domestic ceiling mounting only, not for wall or corner installation.
