Electric Radiant Panels

Electric radiant heating panels work in exactly the same way as our LTHW radiant heating panels, emitting gentle long wave infrared heat directly to the objects and people around them.

Below we outline some of the benefits of using electricity as the heating medium over LTHW.

Easier and cheaper to install

Solray electric radiant heating panels use a single phase 240V electrical supply, which is usually readily available. They don’t need any new plant, boiler room equipment or long pipe runs to areas where the radiant heating panels are wanted. This makes them ideal for refurbishment projects, or for sites that don’t have an existing boiler or gas supply (churches and other historic buildings for example).

Easy to control

Controlling electric radiant heating panels can be as simple as an on/off switch. Or they can be controlled with a multi zone wireless thermostat or PIR sensors linked to timer switches, the possibilities are endless with electric radiant heating panels meaning that there’s a solution for every situation. There are no valves to commission or flow rates to worry about either.

Fast response times

Electric radiant panels start to heat up instantly, and reach their designed temperature within minutes thanks to the heating elements attached directly to the radiant panel. LTHW heating systems usually take longer to heat up as the heat is generated in a plant/boiler room away from the panels before it has to be transported to the heat emitter.

Energy efficient

Solray electric radiant panels are silent and don’t glow, therefore all of the electrical energy put into them is emitted as heat. Combine this with the basic principles of radiant heating and you have one of the most efficient heating emitters available today.

Outputs

Solray electric radiant panels offer customisable output levels to ensure occupant comfort and to satisfy radiant a-symmetry requirements. They can also offer much higher outputs than LTHW panels, ideal for projects that require a large heat output or have limited space available for heat emitters.

Can be combined with LTHW

Solray panels can offer combined LTHW and electric heating capability. This could be useful where air or ground source heat pumps are the LTHW heat source. Electric elements can be used to boost the output for the coldest days of the year without needing more heating surfaces or equipment.

Looking to specify our radiant panels? As all systems and sites are different, we recommend speaking with a member of our UK based design team.

All of the products listed are available in CAD format for drawing integration and Revit models are available to download here. Please contact us and we’ll be happy to provide the details you’re looking for and put together a detailed schedule of panels based on your design conditions.

All radiant panels are available with flat or perforated faceplates for acoustic environments.
