Herschel - Infrared Heating

Herschel Infrared heaters

Herschel Infrared heaters come in many different variants from wall panels to mirrors, outdoor space heaters and ceiling mounted domes that emit heat by using infrared waves. The feeling of infrared heating and the way the waves work is different to standard heating found in most homes or outdoor spaces.

 

 

Common ways of heating like radiators, panel heaters and storage heaters use what is called convection to heat the air in a room. As heat rises, the highest part of a room is heated first, where the air is then gradually circulated, mostly uncontrollably, down to the lower parts of the room where it eventually cools down. This type of heating means objects don’t tend to absorb the heat, and air quickly escapes through windows or doors that are opened and closed throughout the day. Convector heaters release dust when used as the heat rises carrying the particles into the air, which can cause health problems for people with asthma for example.
