That is the route I would take, but I would certainly check that the current rating of that new switch is adequate for the current drawn by that heater.

Al.
Yes, but pull cord switches are generaly rated for a minimum of 5 amps for older types and 6 amps for newer production. I have never seen one for less.
These heaters are typically 750 watts, so just over 3 amps.
