Bath Ventilation Fan/heater Combo

Is anyone aware of a bath fan/heater/light combination unit that doesn't require a dedicated 20 amp circuit? I have three new construction bathrooms, and am thinking about putting three such units in, but concerned about spaces on the panel. Thanks in advance.

Quite simple - ask your electrician. They generally go to supply houses that either stock or can order almost anything made. Next he may be able to help you out on the panel issues. You do use a licensed sparky, don't you???
