Our Heritage Heating collection is designed specifically for churches, listed buildings, community halls and historic properties where traditional heating systems often struggle. High ceilings, poor insulation and the need to preserve architectural features can make conventional heating inefficient and costly. Far infrared technology addresses these challenges by warming people and surfaces directly, rather than heating large volumes of air.

Heritage infrared heaters provide silent, maintenance free operation with discreet wall mounting that respects the character of sensitive spaces. They are widely used in places of worship, historic venues and public buildings where comfort, conservation and energy efficiency must work together without visual intrusion.

Zoned control and smart scheduling allow heat to be delivered only when and where it is required, making these systems particularly suitable for intermittent use such as services, events and community gatherings. For an initial estimate, you can use our wattage calculator, or contact our team for tailored advice.

Trusted in heritage and commercial spaces

“We are thrilled with the heaters we bought. They were very straightforward to assemble and install, and the control system works extremely well. We especially like the WiFi compatibility, which allows us to preheat the room before it is needed.”

“When the heaters are turned on, the warmth can be felt immediately. Once the room reaches temperature, the thermostat control manages the system efficiently.”

“The heaters, combined with the lighting, create a wonderful atmosphere and look very smart indeed. We have received many positive comments from our customers.”

How to choose the right option for your space

WHEN TO CHOOSE HERITAGE INFRARED HEATERS

- Churches and places of worship
- Historic and listed buildings
- Large halls and community spaces
- Buildings with high ceilings and poor insulation

WHAT TO CHECK

- Seating layout and occupied zones
- Mounting height and direction
- Power output and zoning requirements
- Control strategy for intermittent use

GOOD TO KNOW

- Infrared avoids heat loss at roof level
- Zoned heating reduces running costs
- Ideal for occasional use buildings
- Minimal impact on historic fabric

Suitable applications

Infrared heating is suitable for both domestic and commercial spaces, particularly in environments where traditional heating systems are inefficient or costly to run. By heating people and surfaces directly rather than warming the surrounding air, infrared provides a more targeted and energy efficient way to heat a space.

This approach makes infrared heating especially effective in rooms with high ceilings, open layouts or intermittent use, while remaining adaptable to different room sizes and usage requirements. With discreet designs and advanced control options, infrared heating integrates easily into both modern interiors and demanding commercial environments.

Control infrared heaters with a smart thermostat

Control your heating with smart thermostats

Heritage infrared heaters include a built in thermostat, providing reliable, self contained temperature control without the need for an external controller.

The integrated thermostat allows accurate regulation of heat output, making Heritage heaters well suited to large enclosed spaces where consistent, long term heating performance is required.


Where multiple Heritage heaters are installed, compatible external thermostats can also be used to provide grouped control or centralised temperature management. Speak to our team if you wish to have control of all the heaters from just one control if you have more than one heater

Built in vs external thermostats – what’s the right option?

Are heritage infrared heaters expensive to run?

High power heritage infrared heaters are not expensive to run when correctly designed for large spaces. Unlike traditional heating systems that lose heat to high ceilings, infrared heaters deliver warmth directly to people and surfaces below.

In real UK churches and large halls, this often results in:

  • Significantly reduced heat loss
  • Lower running costs than gas or oil systems
  • Comfortable warmth focused on occupied areas

Running cost example:
If your electricity costs £0.20 per kWh, a 2400W heritage infrared heater would cost around 48p per hour when running at full output (2.4 kW × £0.20). Zoned control and timers significantly reduce total running time.

Actual running costs depend on room size, insulation, ceiling height and how the space is used. For a full breakdown, see our guides on infrared heating running costs and compare infrared against traditional heating.

To size your room accurately and avoid overspending, use our wattage calculator.

Installation & maintenance

Heritage infrared heaters are designed for high level installation in large, open spaces and must be suspended/ceiling mounted at a minimum height of 3 metres above floor level. This mounting height is essential to ensure safe operation and effective heat distribution across the occupied area.

Due to their size, output and electrical requirements, Heritage heaters must be installed by a qualified professional electrician. The units are designed for fixed installation and are supplied with dedicated mounting brackets to allow secure suspension from a suitable structural ceiling.

These heaters require a three phase electrical supply and must be connected in accordance with the specified wiring requirements. Correct electrical installation is critical to ensure safe operation, reliability and compliance with relevant regulations.

Full installation instructions are supplied with each unit, and professional guidance should always be followed to ensure correct positioning, electrical connection and safe commissioning.

Warranty & peace of mind

All infrared heaters supplied by Infrared Heating Supplies are covered by a 5 year manufacturer’s warranty for added peace of mind. This warranty applies to products installed and used in accordance with the supplied instructions.

The warranty covers manufacturing defects and faults under normal operating conditions. Full warranty terms and coverage details are provided with each product, and our team is available to assist in the unlikely event of a fault.

Frequently asked questions

What makes Heritage infrared heaters different from standard infrared heaters?
Heritage infrared heaters are high-output, industrial-grade units designed for large enclosed spaces with high ceilings. They deliver powerful radiant heat over long distances, making them ideal for halls, warehouses, workshops and public buildings where standard infrared panels may be insufficient.
Do Heritage infrared heaters require a thermostat?
Heritage infrared heaters include a built in thermostat for basic temperature control, but they can also be paired with external thermostats or smart controls for advanced scheduling and centralised management in larger installations.
How do I size Heritage infrared heaters for large spaces?
Correct sizing depends on room volume, ceiling height, insulation and usage patterns. For optimum performance, calculate the total heating load based on cubic volume and radiant requirements, and distribute heaters to ensure uniform coverage. Our technical team can assist with detailed layout planning.
How energy efficient are Heritage infrared heaters?
Heritage infrared heaters focus heat directly on people and surfaces rather than air, reducing energy wasted on convection. While high output, their radiant approach can be more efficient than traditional systems in large, poorly insulated or high-ceiling spaces when correctly specified and controlled.
Are Heritage infrared heaters safe to use?
Yes. Heritage infrared heaters are built to rigorous safety standards with overheat protection and robust construction. Proper installation by a qualified electrician, correct mounting height and adherence to electrical regulations are essential for safe operation.
What maintenance do Heritage infrared heaters require?
These heaters have no moving parts and require minimal maintenance. Periodically check mounting fixings and clean surfaces with a soft cloth when switched off. Professional inspection is recommended as part of routine electrical safety checks.
Can Heritage infrared heaters replace gas or other conventional heating?
In many cases, Heritage infrared heaters can fully replace gas or convection systems in large enclosed spaces when correctly designed and zoned. Their radiant heat provides higher comfort with less energy wasted on heating unused air.
