I'm going to install a ceramic bulb for sofia today, my question is do i need to give time for any fumes to dissipate before she can go back in?

Is it one of the white conical ones? If so then you should be good to go. I've not had to do that with any of mine .

Ok. Not to sure with those ones. I wouldn't have thought that you would need to but don't take that as gospel. Does it say you need to on the box/instructions?

I don't reckon you need to, to be honest.

With ceramics you should run them til the temps balance out anyway iirc so I'd just do that.
