I want to buy a 1500-watt electric wall heater with a built-in fan to supplement heat in a basement room. I want to wire it to an occupancy-sensor wall switch that I can turn off entirely in the summer or leave set to "auto" in the winter.
My concern is that I can't find a motion-sensor switch that advertises capability to handle 1500 watts.
Both 120 and 240-volt models of the heater are available.
How can I make this work?
