IR panels as a primary source of heating

Converting electricity into heat is indeed not economical. However, the opposite effect applies to heating with IR panels. We should not equate electric radiators, thermoaccomulation furnaces, and glowing "infrared" with modern IR heating elements. IR panels do not directly convert electricity into heat.

IR light fully irradiates the objects in the room, and the molecules on the surface of the objects start to move faster, resulting in heat. The whole room becomes a homogeneous heating body. IR panels have been accepted and recommended by the better informed profession for installation as a primary heating source. We recommend IR heating to anyone who wants to reduce heating costs, maintain maximum comfort, ensure a healthy microclimate, and forget about maintenance costs. IR panels are suitable for heating new houses. For existing buildings, IR panels are ideal for owners of large houses who do not want to heat all the rooms throughout the winter, especially for elderly and disabled people.

It is highly recommended for greenhouse heating, where advanced control and heating of the soil allows the vegetation to have an ideal microclimate and thus a noticeable increase in yield. IR heating is ideal for commercial premises and especially uninsulated warehouses with high ceilings, where heating time is limited locally and temporarily. Production with IR panels is steadily increasing and prices are competitive.

What are the most common dilemmas of potential users?

Users question whether heating with IR panels works, whether it is harmful to their health and whether the heating costs are reliable. Confusion in the market is caused by a flood of Chinese products with the common denominator of low price. Such brands often have no proof of quality and origin and lure with unrealistic savings. They are often sold only online, without a prior energy calculation of the building's consumption and a professional inspection of the building.
