When I first visited the house I looked around with my real estate agent. After a few minutes of looking around we could smell burning. We were getting increasingly worried when we realized that there was a heat lamp in the bathroom and one of us had accidentally flipped the switch assuming it was a light switch. It is positioned right above your head, so in order to prevent anyone's hair burning or accidental burning down of the house I decided to remove it.
Playing with electrics seemed like a very daunting task, but it was much easier than I imagined. Firstly I located the circuit breakers for the house and turned all the electricity off. Then it was just a case of unscrewing the lamp from the ceiling. This exposed three wires - red, black and green. I have decided to replace the heat lamp with this ceiling light from Ikea. The new light has a red, black and green wire, so I simply connected red to red, black to black and green to green using the cap connectors supplied. Then I drilled two holes in the ceiling and fitted screw anchors. Then screwed in the new light. Turned the electricity back on and it worked! Very easy :)
