Are you using damp located rated devices and luminaires in bathrooms, other then in/over tub/shower spaces where allowed?

They need to come out with a baseboard heater that is "urine rated".

Heh, a few of those might have had some help from feline urine as well... seen more than one person keep a litterbox in a bathroom. I bet that smells really good first time you crank the heat that year.

Maybe so. I buy them by the case and use them all the time. Imagine what your hands look like after working with MC for a whole day. Besides, I like seeing the look on all those around me when I snap those gloves on and say "OK who's next - drop your shorts".
