Infrared heating in an apartment: what should you assess during use?
Would you like to know whether infrared panels work well in your apartment? Look at comfort where you sit, the warm-up time and thermostat operation. Consider differences between rooms, outdoor temperatures and times of use.
Compare consumption fairly
Record the heating’s electricity consumption and corresponding operating time. Compare periods with similar outdoor temperatures, occupancy and desired indoor temperatures. A lower gas bill alone is no proof of lower total heating costs: additional electricity consumption and energy tariffs also count.
Match positioning and control to your use
Infrared panels emit radiant heat towards surfaces and people within their range. Heat loss through the building envelope and ventilation still occurs with this heating too. We help you assess positioning and controls. If a room remains too cold or consumption rises, have the heat loss, selected output and settings checked.
