The heat lamp would be installed where it is needed. The only place the lamp is not permitted to be placed is over a doors swing radius. This is in the electrical code to prevent a door that is left opened and in a position directly under the lamp. The heat from the lamp has the ability to raise the temperature of the door to its combustion point and set it alight.

No problem. But watch the wattage on the bulbs. The heat is going to go the opposite direction. And the lamp is ment to be in the opposite stress position so that it could be much less stable than when sitting.

Overall it is better to be safe than sorry and use a lamp designed for the ceiling.

This is old school technology and hasn't been done for years in construction. What used to happen, the bathroom being a small room didn't have much ceiling area. Centrally locating the heat lamp fixture to a good position sometimes positioned the fixture in the radius of the in-swinging bathroom door. On many occasions the door was left under the heat lamp with the lamp on and the door caught fire from the build up of heat from the lamp. The electrical code made a revision to keep the fixture out of the arc radius of the door and this made for some strange locations of the fixture. The installing of heat lamp fixtures has just gone out of favour. It has been replaced with in floor heating in bathrooms.
