Infrared Radiant heat panels are a cost effective way to heat your home or office with the benefits compared to that of the Sun. The slim light weight panel radiant gentle heat in to your space.
Thanks - nice to see around and consider the layout/ general impact on space etc. As with ALL infrared youtube 'walk-rounds', nobody addresses key questions like: why bother, whats the point? Ethical choices to move away from an oil tank, but does it cost more to run? What are the maintenance requirements? What is the design life of a panel? For me, it needs to be a clear financial and ethical choice to move away from conventional wet systems. Simply walking around and showing some questionable panel locations adjacent to pendant light fittings along with some weird controller locations does more harm than good to the arguement FOR these this stuff. You might as well say "if you have no choice for a wet system you can do this instead", but so long as you have a choice for a wet system there appears to be no overwhelming reason to change to this (i.e money money money).
@@infraredheatingireland a tank IS still required 2 store the hot water the only difference is the delivery accessin the stored water ONLY when somebody IN the room - so where IS the benefit ?
regulating is NOT more efficient > Remember even IF nobody is IN the room heatin the room IS a GOOD thing >things STILL exist IN the room - belongings, plants ... Life of the things IS extended BY the warm environment
These kinds of videos are great, thanks. I struggle to get useful metrics or usage estimates from suppliers to try and work out what the transition from oil boiler and rads to infrared. Representative examples are really useful to help make an informed decision rather than just taking a chance and hoping for the best
Just brought a 450w one. Granted it only been on for a few hours but cant say im impressed. Inferred is light and these panals seem to be just heaters.
Nothing is cheaper then firewood if you get it yourself...but then you got to gather it, clean the fireplace after a while, load it up every few hours, and be around the area so it doesn't burn down your house if a spark flies out and catches something on fire. Time is money. If everyone started using firewood the air quality would be worse and we would have no trees.
I’m going to get IR in my whole house this year. I have a standard 3 bedroom end of terrace house and a 4.6 kwp PV system, a Thermodynamik hot water system, and the gas boiler is only used for heating the radiators fur 5 months a year. Still I pay standing charge all year. For a gas bill of 1000€ p.a. I think I can be cosy warm with IR when I need it.
Get in touch with us and we can offer a package. We also have a hero offer. This gives you an extra discount and in return you can give us a testimonial and your feedback.
At 3:30 you say "that's true with a HP" but when the grid goes fully renewable, then the electric running and CO2 impact of IR will be same. BUT HP leak gas making them more of an issue. Your HP is 3 time more efficient BUT, it's to be on 3 times longer to reach thermal comfort where's IR is 'heat on demand' so it balance out especially when your opening and closing doors. so HP is efficient heating on paper but IR is smart heating in reality. Your giving HP too much credit.
I have one instaled in my home amd it is irsun 1.4.And my panels are not working when it is outside cold.Max temperature is 20°.Can you help me with this
What would really help me, is a basic explanation of how an infra-red heater actually works. Your excellent videos explain how they are installed and positioned. BUT what will I actually experience in a room heated by infrared versus a conventional heater that I am used to? I think it heats objects/people as opposed to the air. I think the heat if instantaneous. How does one work out the size/power for the room size? I am interested in one for our bathroom/shower which can be cold - what are the considerations?
I installed two 900watt infrared mirrorstone picture panels in my lounge and dining room last winter and have to say they did a superb job, from 20th December until they went off totally it cost me less than £80 to run them, this is a house with people home all day. Can I ask how are your panels different to the ones I am using?
Most popular is the ceiling, the video doesn’t do justice to the how they look. The panel is Matt frameless and shows no fixings or screws when installed. The wall option wrapped also looks good.
Bad insulation then I'd apply a minimum of 62.5 insulated plasterboard to the inside on used rooms first with the Kingspan taped carefully to stop air behind and mould sealed at electrical outlets top and bottom with foam(Cut out a foot larger and pump with fire proof pink expansion foam) You should look at getting each wall floor and ceiling to under 100w loss so heat load is minimal. Look at a room heat loss calculator to calculate insulation I use infrared every night to sleep. I'm waiting to improve insulation and blow stud walls and hollow internal door with cellulose and lift the floorboards to add more in the mean time I've a 180w panel next to my head with a loose sheet of radiant barrier opposite it on other side to reflect heat(sheet Kingspan), 8 hours even in freezing weather with an electric blanket is 1500w or 60 cent ,it's great 🙂
Absolute rubbish for domestic homes. Great for factories and warehouses that need the working person to feel a warm glow when the doors are always open but absolutely rubbish at increasing the internal air temperature of a home to any sort of comfortable level most people would be satisfied with. Hocus Pocus buncome. Do not be fooled.
We have 15 panels throughout our home in West Cork, Ireland. Never been warmer and we are a C1 rated BER. I recommend you visit a home with professionally installed/designed system to feel the effects...we couldn't be happier with our system and we spend less on heating our home and water than when we had oil fired heating.
I'm tempted to buy one panel and controller but use a quartz heater currently at 400 watts it keeps the room warm ,I switch it to the 800 to heat the room and then 400. Nice and simple and fairly cheap too.
